Kathryn has a new book coming out. It's called The Happy Hours, which is about bringing joy to her husband during his last years. It's available for pre-order from Amazon and will be released on June 1st. Presumably she will offer it through her website as well.

While looking for something else on Google images, I managed to stumble onto an early credit for Dennis Patrick. It's called The Strip Tease Murder Case. No, Dennis doesn't strip; no Chippendales in 1950. The film is sort of a murder mystery interrupted by what would be politely called specialty numbers. Dennis has dark hair in it, like Jason McGuire. And he is the only cast member to have had any long term success in acting. He is billed under his real name, Dennis Harrison. Which may be why the film remains largely unknown in DS circles. And possibly why he adopted a stage name. He appears very briefly in the trailer (which is on YouTube) but has no dialogue. The film itself is available from Something Weird, which it certainly is
Judging by what I saw in the trailer, it makes Plan Nine from Outer Space seem like Streetcar Named Desire.
It's definitely Dennis' answer to Satan In High Heels.

Kathryn is among the guests who will be appearing at The Hollywood Show in Chicago next month March 24-26th. It has a particularly interesting guest list: Angie Dickinson, Adam West, Dawn Wells,
Stefanie Powers, Gary Conway, Lee Meriwether, Edward Asner and Deanna Lund, in addition to KLS.
While you won't have to wait in line anywhere near as long as you would at a Festival, please be aware that there will be a charge for each signature or item. Probably an equal fee for a photo as well. That being said, the shows are well run and can be a great deal of fun.

On the heels of the All My Children tribute comes a rumor reported by Eva LaRue, who played Maria Santos. There is a rumor that the soap may be rebooted on Netflix. This is nothing more than a rumor at this point. If Susan Lucci gets involved, then I might take it seriously. daytimeconfidential.com

Now that the ABC/Prospect Park lawsuit has been settled, the characters from All My Children and One Life to Live are available for use on General Hospital again. First up is Nora Buchanan who will be involved in some upcoming legal drama for an unspecified stay. Hilary B. Smith will be reprising the role. Smith won a daytime Emmy as Nora and is definitely worth watching.
Also, Roger Howarth's Franco character has been given a very similar facial scar to what his Todd Manning character had on OLTL and GH.
It will be interesting to see how this is received.

This coming Thursday, Kathryn Leigh Scott, Lara Parker and David Selby will be taping an appearance for the Decades show called "And Then Again With..."  The program is hosted by prolific author Herbie J. Pilato. Pilato has written quite a few books on baby boomer TV shows and icons, including two about Elizabeth Montgomery. No airdate has been announced but I am sure that it will receive a good amount of promotion. decades.com

Sharon is doing another convention appearance at the Finger Lakes Comic Con in Auburn, New York next month.
