 As I mentioned in my last blog post, theater season is here and that means I will be writing previews for Urban Milwaukee.com. I will be sending out the links to my articles for the few of you who don't read the most informative online news about Milwaukee written and edited by people who live in Milwaukee.

I have turned the pilot for my series Two Many Wives to a distribution service in LA, Talefilck. This screenplay is a story about people adjusting to being married, having children, and living under a microscope because they are in a polygamous marriage. Or as I explain it, it's Three is Company, with benefits. My characters learn that marriage isn't all moonlight and roses but it beats being single.

Their challenges are, among many, defending their lifestyle choice. Parents that don't understand. Past romances that bubble up out of the blue. And for good measure, whose going to get up and tend to the babies. The three of them want the babies but post-partum depression and post-delivery heart conditions were not on their list of things to do.

The theme of this tale as it develops in 30-minute servings is that marriage is tough, but the way to making it work is communication. As the story progresses, my trio develops some really interesting ways of keeping things fresh, exciting, and innovative.

For a peek at this I've put the link to a proposed one-hour pilot on my website boundtobegood.com.

On the opening, page scroll down to the blog section and click on the link on Screenplay Reveal

There's a short description of the show. At the bottom, there's a dropbox link to the screenplay.

Ring The Bell

 It appears there is a tradition in the radiology department at Ascension Hospital that patients, upon completing their course of treatment, ring a bell. ( We know not for whom this bell tolls.) Ring the Bell with My Sweetheart Jeanne. Jeanne drove me to all but two of the appointments. Pam Frautchi took me to the other two. Today, after being zapped thirty-two times, I rang the bell. This begins a roughly one-month recovery period where the effects of the radiation abate and, I'm assured, a return to normalcy occurs. In my case, I anticipate more energy and greater awareness. Books, Books, & More Books I am simultaneously celebrating the end of the third year of volunteering for the All Saints Hunger Book Sale. Next week, we will wrap up the preparation for the sale and open our doors on August 3 for the public. I ran into this humourous but quite accurate cartoon on a T-Shirt that shows most of the volunteer's sentiments at this point. If you think the printed and bound p...

One of my latest efforts. Sketch: The Lady Is Blue Gouache 9 X 12 Reporting: I enjoyed a pleasant evening with my friend Michelle Mooney. I took her out for dinner to celebrate her birthday and to thank her for the many first-rate haircuts she's given me. We were surprised at the number of people who dined alfresco in the balmy night air. Whatever we've done to please Mother Nature, she had deemed acceptable by giving us a shot of summer just when late fall weather was wrapping her fingers around our throat. If I have one complaint about the friendly confines of The County Claire, it's the noise level that makes it difficult to converse. The rumble is an acoustical problem with the customers speaking in normal conversational tones. This is without audible TV showing some game or background music selected by a dance DJ.  I know! We should have eaten outside, where the only noise is the occasional 14 bus snorting by.   Maybe It's Me Since my two soccer teams are not doing...

It's time again.

It started in 2004 when we moved to our condo off Downer in Milwaukee. Then we mover to the Westside of Milwaukee when we rented from Ken Karr, the former landlord, now a current friend on Highland and 29th St. Then we moved to Mandeville Louisiana for a little less than a year. Returning to The Fox River Valley, we rented a home in Fox Crossing, formerly The Town of Menasha. When the tree fell on the roof, and the landlord felt no urgency to fix it, we moved to W. Commercial in Appleton. Here is a shocker. Are you sitting down? We are moving. No, I don't mean off the couch and out to the patio. There are too many damn mosquitoes for that to happen. No, we are packing our stuff, or at least the stuff we unpacked from the last move and moving to a home Maria purchased on Mason and Glendale in Appleton. Let me unpack that last sentence (pun planned for). We are moving at approximately the end of September to a house. The house has been in t...
