I'm Back!

I'm back from a week in Los Angeles...and I'm still rather tired.
Although the hotel we stayed at left something to be desired, I did enjoy visiting with family and old friends. I also had a successful book signing for MURDER IN BABYLON at Dark Delicacies in Burbank.
Barring some compelling reason or a great $ offer, this was probably my last trip back to Los Angeles. It's nice being there, but the travel part is miserable and it takes a couple days to recover. Both wife Sandy and I had the same physical "issues" when we got there and when we got home.
While I was away, I was sent a copy of the mini-series of WAR & PEACE. I will try to watch/review it this week and post the review on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page.
Next month, I begin my classic film series at the Austin Public Library. One Thursday each month, I will present a classic film to an audience and lead a discussion. The first movie will be THE MALTESE FALCON.
In the meantime, I'm spending most of my time reading show business biographies; partly for pleasure, but mostly to come up with an idea for my next play in THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS series. I have a few ideas, but I don't really want to start writing anything until next year.
Did I tell you that there will be a production of LOMBARD staged in upstate New York in August?
You have a creative week.
Michael
