No, it probably means he's run out of ideas/enthusiasm, and wants one more best seller. There's always room for an auto-biography if an author is famous enough.

Kudos for the gayest non-Lozzer-originated thread title to date on Ratz.

Isn't that the wrong way around?

Variety is the spice of something or other.

And what
exactly did Josh Timonen
do, again?
22. All products sold in the Upper Branch Store publicized the issues and cause(s) supported and advanced by Dawkins and RDF but Dawkins made clear that, in Dawkins’ own words, the Upper Branch Store was “not directly concerned with RDF[]’ activities.”
23. At all times hereunder, Plaintiff was an independent business (independent from RDF, et al.), and Mr. Timonen autonomously ran and operated the Upper Branch Store from a location within Los Angeles, California.
24. Timonen proposed to Dawkins that Timonen could donate certain profits of the Upper Branch Store operation to RDF. In response, on or about July 25, 2007, Dawkins emailed Timonen in Los Angeles: “it’s your baby, your profits, your tax . . . as for whether Upper Branch should make a donation to RDF[], I don’t think you should feel any moral obligations in that regard.”
My emphasis.
Reference. (Paragraphs 22-24, pages 7-8).
Then they for sudden joy did weep,
And I for sorrow sung,
That such a king should play bo-peep,
And go the fools among.
Prithee, nuncle, keep a schoolmaster that can teach
thy fool to lie: I would fain learn to lie.

Well he has had the good sense to change the title of the book. Not sure it is much better but it is better than the original..

He's always appeared a little self-obsessed but this is frankly ridiculous. Every mis-direction will be noted and scrutinized and then the press, the British press, will demolish him unless he's been very very careful. What is the point, surely he knows enough to avoid becoming his own subject?
