About me:

I live in Hollywood. I collect music . I have a cat named Wino. He's a fighter with a heart like his pa; he will try to murder a pit bull and then stop to smell the roses. I have much of the same untamed aggression, both physically and intellectually, but yet take great pleasure in the simple things in life. I am a wildchild, the prodigal son. I am proud to be an American, though i think we really fucked ourselves lately. Really though, I am much to multi-faceted to be described in a simple blurb; one day you will be able to read my biography (A goal of mine is to do something biography-worthy), until then you'll just have to talk to me. Don't worry, I don't bite -- hard. Oh, and I come across really sarcastic and gruff upon first meeting me. And I am. But don't worry, when I call you an "asshole" I mean it in an endearing way. If I didn't like you, I would be much more creative. I'm a writer for chrissake. Words are my porn. (Then again, I'm pretty shameless so I'll say it, so is porn).


Here is something interesting about my family i found out not too long ago: I am not the only Al Maltz. The other Al Maltz, though he was an Albert not an Alec, was part of the infamous Hollywood Ten. He was one of the blacklisted screenwriters in the age of McCarthyism. A congressional panel ruled that he was a communist sympathizer, despite the fact that he wrote screenplays for free with all proceeds from their production going to the War Effort, but they blacklisted him all the same, claiming him a Commie. So whats the big fucking deal, you ask? I guess it's that I come from a family of Hollywood Badboys. Look him up on Wikipedia.
