Okay, because they've been requested (I got another couple of

work. This isn't everything...this is about half of the body of
work...but this is probably the more interesting stuff.

of print, mainly because I'm about 2 years behind delivering the
new edition, THE (EVEN MORE!) COMPLETE BOOK OF SCRIPTWRITING.

I've forgotten and am too lazy to dig out.

you what it is.)

Anyway, those are the highlights. I've left out a lot of stuff, and
subsets of stuff (like the prime-time TRGB's special, for which I cowrote
a couple of songs with Brian O'Neal of the Busboys, and other song
related stuff...I've had about half a dozen songs get out there, plus one
on record), but those are the main items.
