WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam recently discussed his aspirations to pen an autobiography in an interview with Denise Salcedo.
Sharing his plans thus far, the Whole F’n Show mentioned receiving offers from writers, contemplating ghostwriters, and evaluating independent publishing options for the project. He said,
“The autobiography. Probably like four or five times a year, I have people approach me and [ask] if I’ve ever thought about — they’re writers or they’ve written someone else’s book or whatever. Yes, I’ve always thought and planned on doing a book, I have gone through different stages of development. I met with book agents, I’ve considered ghostwriters instead of writing it myself because I do like to write, but will I get it done? [shrugs] What are the other advantages to having a ghostwriter and is independent publishing just as good nowadays?”
Van Dam further shared that while he’s very keen on the prospect of an autobiography, it is not an official announcement or done deal by any means. He added,
“Anyways, it is something that if I don’t do, hopefully somebody will find my records with all the bull crap they add. But if I don’t do it, it’s just because I never got to it. Like I said, I’ll be around till I’m at least 150. That is near the top of my to-do list, it is something that I work on now, not as passionately as when it was at the top of my list, but I have a plethora of stories that nobody has even heard.”
