The destruction by fire of the Hollywood Center Motel last night makes me very sad. We used it as a location for my first episode of The Wonder Years in '89. I also wrote it into And Introducing Dexter Gaines as a very L.A. noir kind of setting. Suspicious timing. Shades of the Pan-Pacific.

I love living in Hollywood. You find someone who can repair vintage electric clocks and wander into a museum. What a cool experience.

I was a Monster Kid. Still am. Lately, I've been dabbling with short stories, and this is the first one I've felt like sharing. You can read or listen on my blog. Please like, share, and comment! Thanks and enjoy! markbperry.com/2025/10/12/m...
So thrilled to see this series finally getting its due. What a joy it was to write an episode and work with Dolly Parton. Thank you forever, Lisa Melamed, for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime! #tvwriting #screenwriting
A story of family, home, tradition, and transition. This gent grew up in my 1938 streamline house. This past Saturday, he and his family gathered here to celebrate his 90th. It was magical. Here's my account with some fun pics! markbperry.com/2025/10/05/o...
Happy belated heavenly or hellish birthday to my literary idol.
Latest in an occasional series. I'd love to hear your "bad note" stories. Misery loves company and all that! #screenwriting #tvwriting Here's the link: markbperry.com/2025/09/22/d...
Thanks, Dave. It was amazing to get a chance to tell her story, albeit in a fanciful way.
You must have a wonderful cocktail party repertoire!
Yes! We crossed three times on the QE2, twice on the QM2, and once on the Norway (ne France). Loved all of them, but the Rotterdam holds a special chamber all its own in our hearts.
Thank you, sir. And it's all true!
That is so cool! I'm so happy she has been lovingly preserved in her home port of Rotterdam. When we stayed aboard a few years back, we drank a toast (okay several) to the fabulous Betty!
Katherine LaNasaβs Emmy win for HBOβs The Pitt took me back to July, 2008 when I worked with her on Ghost Whisperer, and from there I spiraled down Memory Lane to April, 2000 and the time I encountered the real person her character was based on... #screenwriting #tvwriting #ssrotterdam #queenmary
