I dont think anybody is debating hiring him now, just because of all the other stuff.

I think everyone wants to know more about his entire life, says Gallery Books publicity director Jennifer Robinson.

I dont see a book deal being made just on what hes going through now.

Its got to be the all-encompassing book about everything.

You want to root for the author.

Somebody might do it.

Even with everything thats happened, hes still beloved, Robinson said.
