"I went to sleep dreaming life was beauty -- I woke up knowing life was duty." -- written by David Mamet for a 1987 Hill Street Blues episode called "Wasted Weekend."

I watched it from a cool little pre-war studio I was renting at the time, located on Camrose Drive in the old-time Hollywood hills, close to the Hollywood Bowl and...

Twenty years ago, before I was published I spent two years writing an adult book. I was a great fan of ‘Hill Street Blues’ at the time and structured my book in a similar way. It was a complete day in a secondary school and involved the lives and loves of a group of teachers. (No need to guess what my job was at the time). It had a host of main characters and a number of intersecting story...

American Primitive is an excellent gay drama with an outstanding cast. It also doesn't hurt that it's set in 1973 with a groovy soundtrack of music. Give me the Hollies' "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" emanating from a car radio and I'm happy.

Halloween turned out to be a lot more exciting at my house than I’d expected. We welcomed at least 45 trick-or-treaters, which is about twice as many as we usually see. (Maybe it was the double pumpkins and Christmas lights that drew those crowds.) Fortunately, I had plenty of sweets on hand--enough to give everybody generous helpings (which led one tyke in superhero garb to bellow out to his...

We all have things we “don’t get,” be it television, automobiles or any of the latest fads permeating our pop culture. With Hollywood more and more ensnared by its own cranium-rectum-inversion, more people feel the town is out of touch. Regardless, here are things I “just don’t get.” 1.
