Since La Lucci still has a thriving daytime career, the behind-the-scenes info will most definitely be watered down and matter-of-factly without any snide comments towards former or current co-stars. If her daytime career were already dead, then we might be subjected to salacious details hidden behind doctored up names ("Tara Rochelle Gelbert was a terror to work with!") I still think La Zimmer's tell-all will be the best of all. She'll tell it like it is and not hide behind pseudonyms.

I'd like to know how she felt about being introduced as "Erica" when on another show:

I want to see this episode!

She's still beautiful, but she was so fresh and dewey tan beautiful back then, I love her look during that era.

"Tara Rochelle Gelbert"!

ITA that Zimmer's book will be the juicier one which is slightly disappointing for me as I was never a huge GL viewer.

Robin Strasser promises an autobio someday, that'll also be a good one.

Years ago, I read about a bio done on Susan in the '80s. I've never read it, but it's probably out there on ebay.

Well of course there won't be any dirt, susan has too much class. I will be buying the book though because I'm a fan.

I'll be willing to read about her life growing up since, for whatever reason, it's always fascinated me to know SL, like Robin Strasser, wanted to be an actress from a very early age.

Yeah, I've loved those two for years, I'd read anything they wrote about themselves and wouldn't regret it regardless of "dirt". That stuff is fun but a lack of it is not a deal breaker by any means.

Yeah. I can hardly see this including anything interesting. It's not as if she's going to air any dirty laundry. lol

She should write a tell-all book like Ellen Holly did after she left OLTL.

That's a great book. Open and honest, right or wrong.

A little off topic, but can we have Kristina Malandro help Susan with her book, like Felicia helped Lila on GH? I would love to hear her run around town saying, "memoir" in that faux-french high-pitched screech that dominated GH in the fall of 2004.

OMG, she reminded me of Madonna, and not in the good way (cuz Madge is Queen). I half-expected her to start talking about Kaballah.

I can just imagine the advance praise...

"Susan Lucci's new autobiography is the stuff of legend! What I only dream up for my novels, she's seen up close-and-personal! Way to go!!!" ~ Jackie Collins

"I simply couldn't put it down! Not even to watch ALL MY CHILDREN!" ~ Carol Burnett

"Susie's a doll, a close friend of mine and the biggest star to ever hit daytime drama. The fact that she has survived everything she talks about in her book without losing her poise OR her marriage makes her also someone I admire tremendously." ~ Donald Trump

"I've always said Susan Lucci could cut a bitch. Now, this book proves she could do it in print, too!" ~ Erica Kane's archenemy, "Giselle" the Bear

I do, too.... i've never seen any of the ones with her in it, though. That first win clip was a scream, that guy wrapping his legs around Sal Viscuso. Such homo-eroticism in daytime TV.

LMFAO

I can't even imagine her saying anything negative about anything. Everyone she ever worked with will be "wonderful" or "a genius". Bor-ing!

And the name "Agnes Nixon" will be evoked so many times, it'll be the basis for the world's first literary drinking game.

After the first chapter you'll need the book on tape because you'll be too sloshed to turn the pages.

Those who will be driving can play too - they'll drink every time they hear "Sarah Michelle Gellar" - not a drop
