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!

YVONNE DE CARLO

by Michael B. Druxman on 04/12/18

April 12, 2018

I know I haven't been around for awhile, but the truth is that I haven't had much to talk about.

However, today I want to announce the publication of my new one-woman stage play, YVONNE DE CARLO.  It's available on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle editions.

Ms. De Carlo is probably best remembered for her roles in Cecil B. DeMille's THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, her television series, THE MUNSTERS and for the Broadway musical, FOLLIES

Before that, she was the "Queen of Technicolor" at Universal Pictures, starring in many forgettable Westerns, pirate and sword-and-sandal movies, as well as the film noir classic, CRISS CROSS with Burt Lancaster.

You can find your copy of YVONNE DE CARLO on Amazon at:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/1986768678/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1523039502&sr=1-1&keywords=yvonne+de+carlo+druxman

If the link doesn't work, which it often doesn't, just copy the address into your browser and you'll be taken to the Amazon site.

You have a creative day.

IDA LUPINO

IDA: The Last Lupino
, my 10th one-person stage play, has now been published and is available via Amazon in both paperback and Kindle editions.

Ida Lupino is a showcase role for a seasoned actress.  I don't care if they reside in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago or anywhere else in the USA, if you know an actress who could bring actress/producer/director Ida Lupino to life on stage, please make her aware of this vehicle.  Obviously, if she has a connection with a theatre company, that would be beneficial.

Ultimately, I will be recording the play onto audio, but I'm not there yet.

This is a special play for me, since I knew Ida Lupino from the time I was 14-years old.

Until we meet again, be creative.

DARK CHASM

by Michael B. Druxman on 01/02/18

January 2, 2018

Happy New Year!

My new novel, DARK CHASM, is now available in both paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon.

DARK CHASM is like JAWS In A Cave.

Following an earthquake, tourists have begun to disappear in the Lorenzo Caverns. The FBI claims that a bear is the culprit, but the local sheriff and an esteemed archeologist suspect that the missing people have become the victims of a bloodthirsty alien creature.

Here's the link to the book on Amazon.  If the link doesn't work, which is often the case, just copy the address into your browser and it will take you right there.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/1975734580/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1514815216&sr=1-2&keywords=dark+chasm

I hope you enjoy DARK CHASM.  If you do, a review on Amazon would certainly be appreciated.

Michael
