People with terrible books - Tom: Zero

Butch Patrick: One
Tom: Zero

From Wikipedia:

Butch Patrick...has completed his upcoming biography with his author Helen Darras. The book, published in early 2008, details Butch's first 25 years in Hollywood and is entitled "Eddie Munster AKA Butch Patrick."

That title really pops.

Wow. This is real. Check out the cover.

"Foreword by Sister of Beatle George Harrison, Louise Harrison"

I guess he was promoting his book at Beatlefest.

Holy Shit! 

Louise Harrison was a speaker at BeatleFest when I went there in 1995.  I am NOT joking.

I think I heard Howard Stern talking about this.  He declined to write a forward so they just put in a transcription of some of what he said on the radio, without his knowledge.

The RZA wrote a book called THE WU-TANG MANUAL. If you aren't a Wu-Tang fan, I could see it being called a terrible book...but you know what? I am a fan, and I loved it.

Let's not forget Jamie Lee Curtis, the acclaimed author of "Is There A Human Race".

I saw a "Method Man" graphic novel at this year's Comic Con, co-authored by Method Man.  It... didn't look good.

What if Tom wrote the story for a one-shot graphic novel (something that writes itself, like "A Newbridge Halloween To Remember") and has one of the FOTs illustrate it.  That'd get him on the board, right?
