New book about MJ and his fans OUT NOW!
.
Dear MJ Fans,
.
we just wanted to inform you that with the help of a lot of fellow fans
and friends of Michael, we finally made it! Our book, called “It´s all
about L.O.V.E. – Michael Jackson stories you were never meant to read”, is
now out and can be ordered at several online book stores. (more info
below)
.
We hope you enjoy reading this book and you feel the LOVE. Please spread
the word to other fans and friends!
.
Any feedback will be welcome!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
.
More info on the project below...
.
We, the editors and co-authors of this book, are a group of fans which has
gone a long way with Michael, from concerts to hotels to courtrooms. We
have decided that it is time to share the joy of our fanship and the
little anecdotes that show even more what a wonderful person Michael was!
.
Throughout the last 40 years, a lot has been written about Michael
Jackson! His musical genius has been analyzed, his life has been told in
ever so many versions, his persona has created reactions from deep
admiration to hate.
.
But there is one thing, one big topic that played such a huge role in
Michael's life and career but still has always been neglected: his
relationship to his fans!
.
This very special bond that existed between Michael and his fans around
the world generated stories that have never been told before and shows a
facet of Michael that the general public is not even aware of!
These are stories that only we, his fans, can tell!
Many fans and friends wrote down their special story with Michael, their
thoughts about Michael or their own poems about him. The best stories made
it into the book.
.
We chose the book title “It’s all about L.O.V.E.” because that’s simply
what it’s all about and what Michael was all about.
.
“Michael Jackson stories you were never meant to read” because on the one
hand many fans have told us that they never intended to share their
precious memories with the world but have changed their opinion due to the
situation now. On the other hand it is, of course, a reference to “Take
two – The footage you were never meant to see”. What you can read in the
book is what REALLY happened and what the media would always deny the
public to see. Back then, Michael released “Take Two” to tell his side of
the story, to tell the truth! Since he can no longer do that himself, we
felt the need to do it for him, to show the world the truth.
All revenues of this book will be given to charity in Michael’s name. We
have decided to give the money to “Make-a-Wish” International. Michael
himself has supported this foundation throughout his career and we are
sure that he would be fine with us continuing his commitment. For more
info on their work, go to www.worldwish.org
During the whole process of collecting contributions, choosing stories and
pictures, concepting, layouting, designing and making the project a
reality, we were well aware of the responsibility that we carried. Not
only to make a book that does Michael justice but also the fans and
friends of Michael, who have put their trust in us by sharing their
stories. We hope that we succeeded in doing that! But as we are no
professionals but "only" fans who have done this in their free time with
no experience in making books, please bear with us for any mistakes we may
have made! Please remember, we did our best and it was all done with
L.O.V.E.

Thank you!
L.O.V.E.

Books content:
"It's all about L.O.V.E" is a book that contains stories and poems that no
journalist, no biographer and no editor in this world could ever write
about Michael Jackson. It not only shows the immense inspiration Michael
was to his fans but also includes true stories of fans meeting Michael
backstage right before his concert or on the set of "In the closet",
talking to Michael on the phone, giving an artwork-presentation to him,
having a nightly conversation with him or even visiting Michael at home in
Neverland. These are stories that only his fans can tell! May this book
help to keep his memory alive for many generations of fans that will
follow. Not of Michael Jackson the mega star, the Moonwalker or King of
Pop - just of Michael, the man who so self-sacrificingly tried to show the
world that it is all about L.O.V.E!
Thank you Brigitte, Marina, Sonja & Miriam
