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!

Michael

I'm Still Here!

by Michael B. Druxman on 08/20/16

August 22, 2016

Since I haven't posted a blog for awhile, I'll bet that some of you thought I was dead.

Sorry if you're disappointed, but I'm still here.

The bottom line on my tests was that my heart and lungs are okay. I just need to exercise more to build up my wind power. So, as soon as this crazy, unpredictable Austin weather stops, I will start doing some walking.

During the past couple of weeks, I signed a contract with BearManor Media to publish my book, HOLLYWOOD SNAPSHOTS, probably sometime next year. I've also gone back to work on a short novel I started some time ago: JACKIE GOES TO DIXIE. I hope to finish it well before the end of the year.

This coming Thursday, I do my stint at the Austin Public Library. This week we are screening TWENTIETH CENTURY with John Barrymore and Carole Lombard.

There are several new reviews on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page. They are: THE WALKING DEAD, Season 6, two Orson Welles films (CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT and THE IMMORTAL STORY), THE AMERICAN SIDE and HIGH STRUNG. So, please take a look.

You have a creative week.

Michael
