Newspaper article on my new book!

[book_worm]

I write books on classic Hollywood in my spare time, and I have just had a book published on "My Three Sons" star Fred MacMurray, also the star of "Double Indemnity" and nearly 100 other films. Here is an article published a few days ago on the book in my hometown newspaper, The Capital Times of Madison,WI.

4. Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Good reviews are a treasure, book sounds like a good read. Always glad to see a writer succeed.

Disorganized who has been not writing a novel since 1993.

6. Wasn't McMurray

a Satan worshiper who drove a fuckin' Rolls Royce while smoking with kids in the car on his way to the olive garden?

Just askin'

(congrats - I hope you left that one part about the Olive Garden out of your book)

9. Great to see someone's doing biographies of dead Hollywood stars without sticking to the motto:

You can't libel the dead. :thumbsup:

10. Congratulations.

Will you be going on a book tour?

11. Not really

My publisher isn't big enough to finance such a thing. But I plan to try and contact radio stations and book stores about doing signings and stuff where possible.

12. In our local paper today:

The Press Democrat in Santa Rosa, had an article n their Food & Wine Section about the MacMurray Ranch in Healdsburg with recipes but it's not on line. I can send it to you if you like.

13. Any good dirt on his "Flubber" days?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[question everything]

14. Congratulations!

I wish I saw this note when first posted. I would have pushed others to recommend it. When one of our own publishes a book this calls for celebration.

15. What a great review...oops and I voted in your poll too, said yes, but keep the

costs down. Seems only 8% said no, but the vast majority said 'whatever it costs'...I could not vote that way, since I do not live there, but I did vote for yes, with cost containment...

SECOND book, the first being about Moorhead...you are prolific as well as talented!! :woohoo:

16. Holy moly!

Congratulations!

17. Dude! That is awesome!

I want to read both. I totally love Agnes Moorehead. You are amazing just for tackling the job in the first place.

Kudos!
