O.J. Simpson Shopping a New Book About Life With Nicole
http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=2795995&page=1

Jan. 15, 2007 — O.J. Simpson wants to write another book, this time a nonfiction account about his life with his murdered ex-wife, one of his lawyers tells ABC News.

Attorney Yale Galanter says his phone has been "ringing off the hook" with offers to buy a book about Simpson's life with Nicole Brown Simpson.

"Everybody, regardless of what they are saying publicly, is interested" in the book, Galanter told ABC News' Law & Justice Unit.

The news comes just as details are emerging about his controversial and now-canceled book, "If I Did It."


'Something Went Horribly Wrong'

Today, Newsweek published obtained excerpts from a chapter titled "The Night in Question" — and noted that Simpson's account adhered closely with the prosecution's theory of the murders.

In the unpublished account, Simpson writes that his ex-wife charged at him like a "banshee."

"Then something went horribly wrong," Simpson writes, according to the magazine. "And I know what happened, but I can't tell you exactly how."

He writes that he blacked out, and then came to with a bloody knife in his hands and the bodies of Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman, lying on the floor.

1. Will the publisher file it under "Current events", "Pop Culture", or "Fiction"?
Or am I not allowed to ask?

2. So is this a confession?
Or did the real murderer sneak up and stab two people to death while he was blacked out?

3. That guy'll do ANYTHING to keep his name in the news . . .
He's worse than Donald Trump as a media whore.

6. I think it's more like he'll do anything
for money. Living on his $25,000/mo retirement alone has gotta be hard.
