John Lennon - Hundreds of letters to be published.
Personal letters written by John Lennon are to be published after widow Yoko One sold the rights for a reported £500,000.
Publishing house Orion Books will release the letters in book form in October 2012 to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the Beatles' first hit, Love Me Do.
The collection of over 150 letters includes notes Lennon wrote to record companies and newspapers and a letter to an eight-year-old boy. A fierce bidding war erupted between publishing houses when the scale of the collection became clear.
"These letters have never been collected in one place before, and for the most part they have never been seen before," Alan Samson of Orion Books explained. "The other reason people have gone crazy for it is the fact that there are half a dozen icons of the 20th century – Marilyn Monroe, Kennedy, Elvis – and Lennon is one of them.
“They are full of wonderful drawings,” Samson added. “They are funny, sad ... they are very human letters."
The Beatles legend was a prolific author beyond songwriting – while he was alive he had two works of fiction published and wrote several stories for Merseybeat newspaper.

Moncler Tibet
I wish Moncler would sell their goods online. There is a few (that I can find) online sellers of Moncler but the problem is they never have what I'm looking for or if they do it's sold out. I know some people would say it's all about exclusivity but with the amount of fakes floating about online it makes sense if you ask me.
Anyway I'm hoping to get one of these (Moncler Tibet Down Vest in black) at some point both God and job willing !! If anyone can point me in a good online retailer let me know.... or even better if you want to gift it to me...... lol
