About me:

Welcome to the official MySpace home of D.R. MacMaster.

I'm a writer with several short stories published, and I'm currently shopping around two novels, numerous screenplays, and an infinity of comedy sketches while working on more novels and other projects.

I also have a short story in the epic anthology: Sha'Daa: Tales of the Apocalypse, available from Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Also available at Barnes & Noble

You should also check out MY BLOG: The Fantastic Adventures of Furious D where I comment on the movie business, pop-culture, and occasionally write loopy stories off the top of my head. It also has extra features not seen in my MySpace blog.

Also, if you're a reader or writer of crime fiction then check out:


View my page on CrimeSpace


Visit CrimeSpace

Big fan of movies, music, and fiction, everything from SF to comedy and everything in between.

You can find one of my most popular stories The Bridge Over The Ymral and other up and coming authors in THE BEST OF ASTOUNDING TALES.

Or check out some samples at my website The Fiction Files.

My short crime story The Death of Suzie Sunshine is also available in Issue #3 (War Is Hell) of Out of the Gutter Magazine

..And Now Some Complete & Total Fibs...

..

Here's an old photo of me and actress Amy Fistup in the long lost 1947 Film Noir classic THE BIG D from Repugnant International Pictures.

In the film I played hard boiled PI Harry Bollixs who is hot on the trail of the international criminal mastermind Doctor Selfabuse who has stolen the priceless Maltese Badger.

Shortly before the film's release R.I.P merged with the Oppenheimer Film Franchise Company to form a new publicly traded corporation. Sadly, no one wanted to buy a stock named RIP-OFF, and the company folded.

With my career as a film-noir star dead I spent the 50s & 60s in Mexico wrestling under the name El Tejón Azul Loco. I was banned by the International Luchadore Union for driving female fans too damn crazy.

After wrestling hit the proverbial mat I started working as an archaeologist, but was soon fired because I just seemed to bring out the worst in the dead. Like this encounter with the revived mummy of the lost pharoah Upyerhotep.

I was talked into returning to movies by director Francis "Binky" Coppolla who offered me a major role in his epic blockbuster The Godfather.

Things didn't work out, Coppolla thought my character, long lost son Bjorn Corleone's fake Swedish accent and frequent cries of "Yumpin' Yiminy!" didn't fit with his vision of the picture and I was left on the cutting room floor.

..

Who I'd like to meet:

Creative people who:

make films

write screenplays

write fiction in any genre or style

write & perform stand-up and sketch comedy

like to draw their own cartoons & comics

are too interesting for the real world

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL FRIENDS

-I do NOT want to see free pics of you and your naughty friends or join your sleazy webcam club. So don't bother.

-I think I've hit my limit on the number of bands on my friends list. Sorry, but unless you do a little research and think I'm the perfect friend for your band, move on to greener pastures.

-I've been getting a lot of Spambots lately, so if you really want me to join your friends list, I'm gonna need some sort of proof of life, so to speak. Hate to be an anti-social jerk, but I've been driven to the edge by this.

-I don't mind HTML and pics in the comments, but please only use ones that are a reasonable size, or it will screw up my layout and I'm a shallow, vain and petty man who is not above deleting an oversized comment to save his pretty layout...

    Thanks for the add and congrats on the publishing creds.  Glad to know I'm not the only one who grudgingly resides somewhere.  Good luck shopping the novels, I'll be doing it soon myself.  Keep in touch.
