John Grisham Fans...

Switching the focus to authors for the moment, I have an update for any of you John Grisham fans. John Grisham himself will be featured on Dateline NBC on May 22 talking about his latest non fiction novel Innocent Man. That same book is expected to be made into a movie in the next couple of years. George Clooney has been attached to direct the project. As for whats coming up in print for Grisham, he is expected to release in October of this year a humorous fictional novel about American football in Italy. And after what seems like a very long hiatus, Grisham will release a legal thriller in February of 2008. Sounds like a lot to look forward to!

John Grisham's New Book

For those of you who love John Grisham books as much as I do, you know that it has been over a year now since his last release, "The Broker". So after a bit of digging, I have some good news and bad news to tell. The good news is that Grisham is currently working on a non fiction book about Ronald Williamson, who was a ex-baseball player convicted of murder and saved from the death penalty at the last minute by a group of lawyers. The bad news is that we are going to have to wait until October 5 of this year to get our hands on a copy of this latest novel. The even worse news is that after this book, Grisham is going back to writing fiction but its release won't be until February of 2008! Better read the new book slowly to make it last 16 months.
