About Me and My Book:
I've recently finshed writing and publishing a book entitled "From Movie City to Music City USA" (My Journey Through Showbiz and how it Works) I have worked in various areas of show business for the last 25 plus years and my book is basically an autobiograpgy / how to book, My book will show one the in's and out's of the entertainment industry as well as how to avoid the scams that use the entertainment industry as a front in order to rip you off. Anyone interested in pursuing the entertainment industry as a career will save years of trial and error as well as hundreds and thousands of dollars that they do not have to spend. I will now put the text that will appear on the back cover of my book it is as follows:

If you’re interested in working in movies or making music and you were not privileged to be born the son or daughter of an already established named actor, writer, or musician that can open the door for you, then this book is your guide. Should you decide to take that leap from the normal to what everyone else considers the abnormal career choice the advice in this book can not only save you months and years of getting that first background artist job, but can also save you hundreds and thousands of dollars that you do not need to spend in pursuit of the entertainment industry as a career. Consider this book a basic training manual, a no punches pulled guide to the obstacles that you are guaranteed to face while pursuing entertainment as the industry of your choice.

The main focus of this book is to educate those that wish to pursue show business regardless of one’s area of interest within the performing arts, whether one wants to be an actor, or writer, producer or director, songwriter or recording artist. They all have one ugly thing in common and that is the con-artist. They will promise you the world just to empty the contents of your wallet and bank account. They will prey upon your dreams so that their gain is your nightmare.

Let this book be your shield for those that will use unscrupulous and unethical tactics against you. While pursuing the entertainment industry as a career, you will also be confronted with more obstacles, walls, and closed doors, that will be just as disappointing as getting ripped off. One thing you will find is that if you can’t handle rejection and do not have thick skin then the entertainment industry definitely isn’t for you. However if you can keep getting back on that horse no matter how many times it throws you then this book will help you keep dusting yourself off and staying in the saddle.

Consider me as your wagon master guiding you through dangerous territory, with all of its unpleasantness and uncertainties, although I can’t guarantee the success of your journey through show business, as can no one, I can at least point you in the right direction so you won’t be lured off the beaten path by the bandits that hide and wait for you.

There will be those that will tell you that you will not succeed, but in my opinion if your only goal is to work in movies and you only work as a movie extra then you have succeeded, as success itself has many levels and one has to start somewhere. Trust me some of today’s big names were also once told,” go home you’ll never make it” and now they have a net worth of over $600,000,000.00. You may never become the $600,000,000.00 man or woman but no matter, follow your heart do what you love and love what you do.

My book is available for purchase from my website www.randallrutledge.com currently only in ebook format however the print version will be available soon.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS! The blessings we ask for this season
Aren't the kind that come wrapped with a bow;
We're asking for gifts from the heart,
Ones we need and never outgrow.
May we see in these bright decorations
With their colors and lights all aglow,
The beauty and wonder of life
That God's world was created to show.
Let the peace and goodwill of this season
Be feelings that we can extend
Far into the following year
To our neighbors, our family, and friends.
Most of all, may we always remember
To open our hearts every day and share all the love and the joy
In a special and meaningful way.
