Amber - where's her book deal? She said she has at least one book finished, and two more in development.

Also, anyone remember this guy? He's been back a couple of times, with mega-deals in the works, yet it doesn't seem that he has enough jack to get his own place.

Who am I missing?

Redstone. He was supposedly working on some kind of intellectual property. I don't think that ever happened, nor will it.

I nadined pitt on amazon, and picked one of the titles at random "House of Ill Repute" w/ foreward by Cindy Sheehan.  I checked the publisher, Polipoint Press (now out of business) and found

PoliPointPress (or P3Books) was a San Francisco Bay Area publishing company, originally founded to print the writings of University of Phoenix founder John Sperling.[1] In 2004 it published its first book, Sperling's own The Great Divide, a book of essays and full-color illustrations arguing that the Democratic Party, in order to retake the United States presidency, must abandon efforts in the allegedly culturally backwards "red states."[2] The company was brought into being to "bring new ideas and perspectives into the body politic, to ignite dialogue,” according to publisher Scott Jordan, a former publicist for the Saudi Arabian government.[3][4]<<<all of the quote in the blue box is directly from the Wiki link>>>
 
The company later expanded its range of titles to include progressive books by Joe Conason, among others.[5] Its offices were in Sausalito, California.[6]
 
The company closed in 2011, selling off rights to its books to Paradigm Publishers and Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Did not check other titles and/or publishers, but thought this was quite interesting.
