Books fated never to be... published?

DLM's picture

Seeing the topic "Books never to be finished" my first thought was books announced for future publication but which have never seen the light of day - for whatever reason.

At least 15 years ago, Joni Mitchell's Memoirs/autobiography was announced as a forthcoming title. It's still unpublished (unwritten?),despite occasional announcements on progress. I understand how she could present a problem on the litigation front, though...

Any more examples that the massive can think of - not necessarily music-related?

Yes I can

An American journalist, Dan Forte, announced many many years ago he was to write a biography of the late Stevie Ray Vaughan.

'Oh good' I thought.

Fuck all has happened.

The Fab Faux

Hopefully this fate wont befall the eagerly awaited Lewisohn biography of The Beatles which is due to be published over the next eight years.

A lot according to Lewisohn

Though whether that's true or not is another thing.

Jagger

Didn't Jagger end up returning the publisher's advance for his life story?
