For 13 years he was host, programmer and producer of the live "cult movie cabaret" (B movies, live bands and burlesque) "Thrillville" at the Parkway and Cerrito Speakeasy Theaters in Oakland and El Cerrito, CA, respectively. After their closure in 2008 he took his grindhouse act on the road, but grew weary of the gig after another year and returned to his first and true love: Fiction. His novels include A MERMAID DROWNS IN THE MIDNIGHT LOUNGE, CHUMPY WALNUT, DOWN A DARK ALLEY, LAVENDER BLONDE, and the out of print LOVE STORIES ARE TOO VIOLENT FOR ME (used copies for sale via Amazon). The latter has been optioned for a film by Christian Slater. The sequels to "Love Stories" are published as "double features," FATE IS MY PIMP with ROMANCE TAKES A RAIN CHECK, and I LOST MY HEART IN HOLLYWOOD with DIARY OF A DICK. Will is also a freelance writer with regular film columns in Bachelor Pad Magazine, the Noir City Sentinel, Varla and Examiner.com (as Oakland Indie Film Examiner.) lives on an exotic island off the coast of California with his beautiful wife Monica "Tiki Goddess" and two cool cats, Tiki and Googie. Swing by his cyberpad for literary cocktails anytime at www.thrillville.net. Cheers.
