where the writers are
The new chapter

I've just posted chapter 5 of Million Dollar Ideas on my author page. It's Hollywood in 1946 and Ed and Johnny, our screenwriting heroes, are bringing their peculiarly anachronistic ideas to bear on reviving Universal Studios' classic monster movie franchise. In the process, they learn some things about American society...or at least, you really wish they would.

Do check it out if you have the chance. This is the stuff that's really fun for me to write and I'd love to hear what you think. Then I really will tell you what my new non-fiction book for FSG is all about. If I can find the nerve.
