This week we’re gonna feature The World of Don Eminizer which is exploding in all directions like a ceegar in a fireworks factory.
Where do I start? Let’s see... Don’s latest book Midnight in America has just been released. The story of John Sterling’s journey to the top of the rock n roll charts; and the real meanings he finds there. I've always liked Don's writing, and I think you will too.
Don’s band, 99Burning has just released a new CD under the same title as the book. Cuts from the CD are topping the charts at Pure Volume. The CD and book are available together as a package. Great writing, great music; enjoy.
Anything else? Well, Don’s just been named the editor of a new magazine called Altus Man. My understanding is that this a nation-wide print magazine of the highest quality, founded by Scott Rose of Gentlemen's Quarterly. Pretty impressive, huh. First issue is due out in October. Litmocracy has a submission category for members (of course everyone can join, if they'd like).
More? Okay, there’s also a movie coming out based on the book, which will include the original music of 99Burning. The band will be opening for some major acts in Baltimore before hitting the road on their own tour. Yeah...life is good.
