Sigh.

I have a bad feeling this book is going to come off as a long argument on behalf of her now tired-ass persona. The same way all the authorized Love-Cobain books have been. I'm not saying she has to be over her problems, but the "epic tragedy" thing has worn the fuck out. In all her records, she stakes out territory using herself, and her sort-of legend, but in her last record she just kind of pointed arrows at herself and figured that was fascinating. The way she thought people would give a shit when she finally wrote a love song ("I'm gonna write a love song!") was cringe-inducing. How about writing a GOOD song instead?

I'll read it, I suppose, but if it's as shit as the scribbles in the liner notes of America's Sweetheart I'm gonna be pretty disappointed.

I just asked the publisher very nicely if I could have a copy of the preview. I doubted I would get a personal copy but thought they might have posted it on the web somewhere.

If you don't ask - you don't get!

GirlGerms was asking Vineyard...so I don't know how that ended up.

I admit that I'm pretty excited for this book now. At first I wasn't too keen on the idea but i'm coming round.

I wonder how much written word it will contain? I keep expecting it to be this big glossy photo affair.

hmm yeah that was what I was thinking too. I don't want to get my hopes up to much about the book because it could end up being like Kurt's journals. I mean even though that was an interesting read, it was abit of hype over nothing really, just a few 'notes to self' and so on.

Does anybody else not think it's a good idea for her to do a book tour?

I mean, I'll go to one of the dates of course cause I love her, but don't you think it's going to attract some psychos? It just kinda scares me...
