If Only Elvis could write a book too...

Newsday has an article on the plenitude of celebrity-authored tomes, a subject which I must always make fun of. Now, there are some celebs who I feel like understand what it takes to tell a story, or alternatively, there's a handful celeb that I would actually take advice from. However, I must question the wisdom of some of these:

The Martha Rules: 10 Essential Rules for Achieving Success as You Start, Build or Manage a Business -- Martha could learn something from Trump's mistake. A#1, overexposure is NEVER a good thing, and when you don't have that magnetic, likeable personality, of say, Kermit the Frog, then overexposure can be the kiss of death. Even more so than prison.

Speedbumps: Flooring It Through Hollywood" by Teri Garr. Okay, I like Teri Garr, she was great in Tootsie, but when the last role was a voice-over in Aloha, Scooby-Doo, well, I'm not sure we're "flooring it through Hollywood." What's next, a book from the 60s singer, Donovan???

Well, funny you should bring that up. Yes, lest we forget the man who gave us such treats as "Mellow Yellow", will provide The Autobiography of Donovan: The Hurdy Gurdy Man" by Donovan Leitch. Apparently the Brits are/were really fond of Donovan, however, the man will also be right up there with bell-bottoms, platform shoes, and Peter Maxx in my book.
