Stirring elements of screenwriting, thriller fiction, ironic self-examination, and urban street smarts into an oddly invigorating postmodern stew, Dunford's novel drops the reader into the lives of Mitchell Draper, screenwriter/office temp; Ingrid Iversen, painter/coffeehouse manager; and Ramir Martinez, actor/health-food-store clerk as they come face-to-face with their dreams in the last way they expected. Mitchell's sudden and suspicious opportunity to pen the screenplay of a bad "mafia princess" movie for obnoxious film producer Carmen Denver coincides with the opening of a reluctant Ingrid's first exhibit and Ramir's one-man-show. What goes wrong?

When we left him at the end of Soon to be a Major Motion Picture, struggling screenwriter Mitchell Draper was happy to have escaped with his life from his last assignment. But that doesn't stop him from digging into a 20-year-old murder-suicide as meat for a new screenplay that might net him $800,000 from a sexy movie producer who seems just as interested in Mitchell as in his story. Once again, novelist Warren Dunford has created a hilariously satirical study of celebrity culture that pokes good-natured fun both at the insiders and those on the outside desperate to get in.

Warren Dunford was born in 1963 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Warren Dunford studied at Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada, where he obtained a Bachelor of Applied Arts degree in 1984.
Though Warren Dunford dreamed of becoming a published screenwriter, he spent the greater part of his adult life as a copywriter in Toronto, Canada. His first short story, Moment's Glory, was published in the Toronto Star in 1987.
He got his big break not on the screen but with the 1998 publication of his debut novel, Soon to Be a Major Motion Picture. The novel was rejected by 100 different publishing companies before being accepted by Riverbank Press. Soon to Be a Major Motion Picture is the story of Mitchell Draper, a struggling, gay Canadian screenwriter-wannabe, who works as an office temp, and his frustrating attempts at obtaining ever-elusive fame. A sequel, Making a Killing, was published in 2001. His third novel, The Scene Stealer, published in 2005, continues to tell Mitchell Draper's story.
Warren Dunford is also known as a contributor of stories to This Magazine, Taddle Creek, the Toronto Star, and various men's magazines, as well as to the anthologies Upon a Midnight Clear, Quickies II, and Queer Fear II. He was also a television writer for the series Canadian Case Files.
