Psalms 151


I caught a blurb on ChristianRetailer.com stating that Thomas Nelson Publishers was to release the new book Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World written by Lynne Spears, Britney Spears mother. The book should hit shelves in May 2008, just in time for Mothers Day (because, you know, all of our mothers are dying to know what Britney Spears' mom has to say about raising children.)

There are many reports about the book not being a trashy 'tell-all' and this and that, I even saw that on the cover of some tabloid near the registers at Target the other day, but Nelson confirms that it's all speculation as the transcript has not been written yet.

Why is this being released through a Christian publisher? Were they scrambling for some cash or something and decided to bank on Britney Spears' MOM? Is anyone interested in reading this for it's spiritual content? Is anyone interested in reading this PERIOD? I guess Tyndale got their bestseller with the new book by Tony Dungy (Coach of the Colts), Zondervan has their 'Bible Experience' that Jon is always talking about, starring every black actor you ever heard of, and Nelson just had a big hit with 'It's All About Him' by Alan Jackson's wife Denise (all about who? God? Alan Jackson?) so they're looking to strike more celebrity gold.

Anyway, something to look forward to for springtime if you're interested.

It's still been a slow news week month.
