New Audio Adventure
I'm pleased to announce that I've just made a deal to have an audio book done of my first novel, Shh! It's a Secret: a novel about Aliens, Hollywood, and the Bartender's Guide. I'm hoping it will be available this summer.
This is only the second time I've ventured into this area, following the audio book version of Father of the Bride of Frankenstein. Personally I'm old school and like to read actu Read more of this blog post »

| More of a booklength essay than a definitive biography, it is a wonderful tribute to one of the greatest composer/lyricists in theater history. Perhaps the best thing I can say is that while he does not pull back from dealing with Sondheim's dark sid ...more | |

Punctilious Punctuation: Telling tales with (and of) those jots and tittles
by Ian Randal Strock (Goodreads Author) |
|
| You will learn a lot from these breezy book about punctuation... at times it seems too much. Strock takes a deep dive into the subject and if you decide to wade rather than snorkel, you'll still get a lot. Much of those marks date back to ancient Gre ...more | |

| I've been working my way through Dickens. This is an unwieldy early work (this edition was nearly 800 pages of tiny print) that is not without its rewards, but has so many subplots and peripheral characters that it's unlikely it would be published in ...more | |

e)his mustache is holding him hostage.
d) I've never heard of this Daniel M. but MY MY what a dashing fellow he is! That mustache is simply DIVINE!
b) on holiday with his mustache.
c) in couples therapy with his mustache. it just doesn't seem to appreciate him anymore. they might be splitting up.
a) he's hiding out. his mustache refuses to appear in public with him until he stops being such an arrogant jerk and if there's one thing he can't bear it's a naked uppper lip.

For the record, "Isn't It Romantic?" is little more than an elaborate greeting card version of the coffee table book "Love Stories." Even though I also edited a workbook for the Federation of Jewish Men's Clubs, I consider my official book count as "four." :)
rob schneider...you have my condolences, danieland, damn dude, how many books have you written?
stop slacking off, will you?
; )
Not "were." Still am. It means giving up your freedom of choice. I can still see what movies I want to see, but it's been a long time since I've had much control over having to watch the movies I don't want to see. Shlock horror, kiddie films, movies with Adam Sandler or Rob Schneider, I pretty much see almost everything. (Stuff does slip through the cracks, but only because I'm not reviewing it.)
So.. you were a film critic. What is it like?
