Books And Authors I Like:: "Echo Park," "9 Dragons" and "Chasing the Dime" by Michael Connelly, "The Known World" by Edward P. Jones, "The Time Traveler" by Dr. Ronald Mallett, "I'm In The Tub Gone" by Richard Carlson, "Lost Hours" by DK Gaston, "Kindred Spirits" and "Dispel the Myth" by Marilyn Meredith.

Movies And TV Shows I Like:: All the old Columbo episodes. More recently I'm liking that new TV show on ABC called CASTLE starring Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic. The Nov 30 show called DEEP in DEATH had two of my my favorite writers, Stephen J. Cannell and Michael Connelly playing themselves in the episode.

As for the trailer, it was more my need at trying my hand at producing lol. Also, my dream is to see my screenplay adapted books make it to screen hence that kind of a trailer. We'll see if it works. Either way, it was fun making the trailer. Thanks again.

1. RICHARD DIAMOND, PRIVATE EYE - Starring David Janssne
2. HARRY O' - Starring David Janssen
3. ROCKFORD FILES - Starring James Garner
4. MAGNUM, P. I. - Starring Tom Selleck
5. KOJAK - Starring Telly Savalas
6. COLUMBO - Starring Peter Falk

Just an opinion. Of course, I'm biased - David Janssen was my friend.
