With a hiss of brakes, and a rush of steam, the next phase of SFW9’s launch is engaged. We have lots and lots to tell you, so settle down, grab your beverage of choice, put your feet up, and let’s go!
That’s right folks… Its time to start planning for SFW9, coming to you next March in Wales and we have a little bit of bad news but a massive whole bunch of good news to soften that blow. First things first though: there are only 18, yes 18 rooms left on site for the weekend so if you don’t have your tickets then you better get on that now. So first off here is a little comment from Sfw themselves with a little bad news…
First off, the bad news … As regular SFWers know, sometimes guests have to drop out, and since the last announcement, both Colin Baker...

Myrna Loy Myrna Loy Biography: Intro You've written books on Mae West and Rudolph Valentino. Why Myrna Loy? Shortest answer: I saw her on Libeled Lady on TCM one night, and said to myself, "She is so delightful. Has there been a book on her?" Longer answer: My previous book was on Valentino, who "discovered" Myrna when she was a Prologue dancer at Grauman's Egyptian Theatre and gave her the first screen test she ever had. I liked the link. The subtitle of your Myrna Loy book is "The Only Good Girl in Hollywood." How was Loy a "Good Girl"? Or was she? The title comes from something said about Myrna by John Ford when she was starting out as a silent-film actress and kept getting assigned roles as an exotic vixen. Ford said, "Wouldn't you know? The one they have playing tramps is the only good girl in Hollywood.

Web Series: Life Of The Other Half
For fans of...: One Life To Live; The Young And The Restless
What it is: A bunch of privileged Aussie singles make their lives more difficult than they need to be.
What's good: This series takes us back to the days when daytime soaps were about the sort of glamorously banal drama only spoiled young pretties endure. Embraces classic soap archetypes (The Socialite, The Casanova, The Perfect Wife) while freshening with a spritz of faux-doc-style irony.
What's great: Who will betray whom? Who will seduce whom? Solid eight-party set-up could eventually yield all sorts of trysts and hijinks.
What could be better: Halfway through the first season and it seems that we're just getting going. After a rather aimless first episode, momentum has been building steadily & we just had our first big love...pentagon, we want to say? Here's hoping the rest...
