I finally found the house that will take Shrub's memoir!

He is going to publish his tome with Florida Academic Press.

Which is a vanity publisher.

5. They don't seem to want it...

“Certainly the longer he waits, the better,” says Marji Ross, president and publisher of the conservative Regnery Publishing, which is more likely to take on anti-Obama books in the next few years than any praises of Bush.

Actually, I was being quasi-facetious about Shrub going to a pay-to-play house. There are two kinds of presses: vanity/subsidy presses, where you pay some or all the costs of producing your work; and royalty presses, that pay authors based on the sale of their books. No royalty press is going to take a book that was supposedly written by that man. OTOH, I think even Shrub realizes what a schmuck he'd come off looking like if he published his memoir at a vanity house.

My bet is if he produces a memoir, and that's a huge if, he'll release it as a free downloadable PDF through the Bush Library's website. Six months later, the version of Shrub's memoir with all the lies corrected will appear on DU. Skinner will charge a dollar to download it, and the revenue stream from the first week of its availability will completely eliminate the need to hold a fundraiser ever again.
