What took you so long to get here?
Where have you been all my life?
I’ll tell you where I’ve been.  

I’ve been in show business!

Ever since I was a little kid and heard Pinocchio singing, “Hey, diddly-dee, an actor’s life for me,” that’s what I wanted. Well, not to be an actor. 
I got tired of that during my freshman year in college.

So, what to do, what to do. . .

After many years as a Hollywood press agent, I became a writer…movies, stage plays, books.  
Anything that was a challenge.  I love telling stories.

After all, with due respect to actors, directors and other artists, isn’t the only truly creative aspect of the performing arts the written word?     
Everything else is “interpretation”.

On this site you will find links to my many stage plays that are available for licensing, listings of my books that are available for purchasing, some of my screenplays that are available for optioning, plus my blog that will keep you apprised of my various on-going activities and we can get to know each other, maybe too well.

If you’re into DVDs, take a look at my monthly newsletter, BEST BETS ON DVD.

Also, if you have a story that you want told, either in screenplay or book form, I am still a writer-for-hire.  Have Mac-Will Write.

So, please sign the guest book and share your thoughts and comments on my blog.  But, let’s play nice!

Don’t be such a stranger.  Keep coming back!

LOMARD is available

 by Michael B. Druxman on 04/17/11

April 18, 2011

The Acting Edition of LOMBARD, my one-woman play about actress Carole Lombard, is now available on CreateSpace... and it should be available via Amazon.com in about a week or so.

If you'd like to order a copy, just go to this link.

If the link doesn't work (as it often doesn't), then just copy/paste the following into your browser and you'll go right there.


https://www.createspace.com/3591316

Also, if you know an actress or a theater that might be interested in the script, please pass on the information.

My review for THE KING'S SPEECH DVD is now up on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the Introduction section on this page.

Enjoy!

You have a creative day, and I'll be back with you tomorrow.

Busy! Busy! Busy!

 by Michael B. Druxman on 04/14/11

April 15, 2011

Yesterday, I uploaded the pdf file for TRACY and began formatting for GABLE.

I was also informed that the final proof for LOMBARD is on the way to me.

I was so involved in getting these plays ready for publication that I didn't even get to the post office to pick up the mail.

I also have to write a review for the DVD of THE KING'S SPEECH, which goes into release next week.

Here's the link for a blog radio of interview I did yesterday.

If that doesn't work, as it often doesn't, just copy and paste the following into your browser:   http://www.blogtalkradio.com/jennifer-walker/2011/04/13/a-cup-of-coffee-and-a-good-book

You have a creative weekend and I'll be back with you on Monday.

Proofreading Day

 by Michael B. Druxman on 04/13/11

April 14, 2011

Yesterday was a proofreading day.

I corrected the first proof of my play, LOMBARD, and wife Sandy proofed the first print-out of TRACY.

All of my corrections were cosmetic, so today I will give the pdf file one last look over, then upload it to Create Space.  They will, in turn, send me a final proof...and once I approve that, the play script becomes available on Amazon in about a week.

Today, I will also proofread TRACY and get it ready for uploading.

I'm not sure which play I will format net.  Maybe (Errol) FLYNN...or perhaps (Clark) GABLE.

Or, maybe I'll just take a few days off.

Re-typing these manuscripts into my computer is tiring, busy work...and I hate busy work.

That said, you have a creative day.

Michael
