She's every bit as petty and vindictive as her loser husband.

How I worked harder than I ever have in my entire life (true)(public appearance every few months and hiring others to decorate for Christmas) and people still hate me (true again)

(36,827 posts)The assumption here is that Melania is going to divorce #DiaperDon at some point, which I'm pretty sure is a given.
1) She writes a pro-Trump fantasy book in order to generate some fast cash and then gets a divorce after the money rolls in from the rubes.
2) She flushes the #DiaperDon turd immediately and writes a tell-all book giving us more insight into just how fucked up #DiaperDon really is.
Personally I think it's going to be option #2 (no pun intended). If she goes with #1 and then gets a divorce, any credibility with anyone is going to be shot to hell and she will be delegated to the ash heap of history. I suppose there's an option #3 where she stays with #DiaperDon indefinitely, but seeing as how he's broke and the legal cases are going to bury him even deeper. I don't realistically see her staying with him when shitting on a gold toilet is no longer an option.
treestar
(82,383 posts)might well not be good, because he is in debt and has negative worth. So the book would be the only way to get any money. The upside of that might be she does not have to comply with the no-tell clauses he usually has people sign. Then she could really tell all.
Major Nikon
(36,827 posts)The fun part will be when he stops sending checks to his other wives and they come out with their own tell-all books.

Really, how much she loves her husband? What could she talk about, Ivanka? By the time it comes out we will find that they have been separated for years and her modeling contract for first lady is done and over, kaaaaaaaPUT!

(146,288 posts)Melania won't write a word of it. She is incapable of doing so.

(57,080 posts)MineralMan
(146,288 posts)That's part of the publication contract. Sometimes, they are also included in the royalty payments, but that's a negotiable thing. Nobody who ghost writes depends on the author to pay them.

MineralMan
(146,288 posts)When it comes to famous people and celebrities, you may not know the ghost writer's name, but the publishers do.
Will there be interest in a book by Melania Trump? Absolutely. Will it make money for a publisher? Maybe.
Big names use very skilled writers to create their books, and the publishers will be glad to suggest one they have worked with in the past.
As I said, you may never have heard their names. They don't care. Ghost writing is all about landing a book that has a big up-front advance. That means celebrity memoirs, etc.
Ghost writing can be very lucrative, but your name isn't necessarily the issue. You have to not care about becoming famous yourself. It's not an area of writing that interests me very much, but I know a few writers who make a very good living with that specialty. I've done a couple of books that way, but it's a hassle getting the person to tell you enough to get through it. Not my thing.

She will have it ghost-written, if it ever appears.
