    My Elvis Book

    Ever since the "Elvis Is Alive" sightings first happened, (mostly thanks to Gail Brewer Giorgio for that), I wanted to write my own book on Elvis from the perpective of the fans. It was to be about how fans first became fans of Elvis, and why they thought he was so popular still today. I got a lot of input from people, but then due to personal circumstances, I had to shelve the idea. Now that the 30th Anniversary is here of Elvis' death, I wanted to re-start this project. But, I need help from you, my TCB friends and family. Please either post your thoughts on the subject, (meaning why you became a fan and why Elvis is still so popular), e-mail me at davidcooper106@hotmail.com or write me at:

    David Cooper
    c/o Jefferson City Health And Rehab
    Room 107
    283 W. Broadway Blvd.
    Jefferson City, Tn. 37760

    One final note, the computer here at the rehab is being taken out next week, and I don't know when/how/if my computer will get online. It has been an honor and a pleasure to know such a fine group of people. Thank you for enriching my life for the better.

    I wish I could help you.....
    But I really dont know anything.
    I wish the computer wasn't being taken down. But there is nothing we can do about it..
    I love Kenneth Austin Thomas

    Everyone says you only fall in love once but thats not true, every time I hear your voice I fall in love all over again.

    To the world your just one person but to one person you could mean the world.

    If I could be anything I would be your tear, so I could be born in your eye, live down your cheek and die on your lips

    My Elvis Book

    I have to admit I'm rather disappointed and surprised in getting just one reply here. Wrting a book like this has been a dream of mine, and one of our fellow members told me not to give up on my dreams. I guess this is just another dream of mine that turns to dust......

    I think that this book is a great idea, and I would love to help you! Although my story of becoming an Elvisfan is not so interesting

    A lot of people asks me why I'm an Elvis fan (what a stupid question), and a book like this could open other peoples eyes, get them inside the mind of a fan!

    Good luck, and if you need help with anything, as I said, I would love to help

    Thank you for your vote of confidence Miss Clawdy. If you want to help, then tell me your story. You might not think it's interesting but others might if I can ever get this thing off the ground!

    I may know someone willing to make you a book-cover.....
    That was my intention.....I wanted to write this for years and get it published, and any profits I got I'd give to one or several of the charities Elvis always gave to. He's given me so much, I just want to be able to give back.....
