Clinton writing book around the clock: Vanity Fair

LA, May 04: Former President Bill Clinton says he is working round the clock to complete memoirs for which he received a $12 million advance, and friends say he is stuck on what has become his favorite subject: himself, according to a story in Vanity Fair on Monday. In an interview,Clinton said he is obsessed with getting his long-awaited memoirs done, although he only started on his White house years around four months ago. "I am literally hardly sleeping. I am working around the clock. I am killing myself because I want (my memoirs) done. ... Hard enough to live my life the first time. The second time has really been tough," he told Anson.
Anson said that those who socialize with Clinton say there's no off switch even when he's relaxed. One unnamed friend said of Clinton, "He just talks. You don't really have a conversation with him. He never asks about you. He never asks you your opinions on anything. He just loves to talk and have an audience.
Another said, "He's like a walking Google. I don't care what word you put in, he will keep going and going."
Others describe him as a man who hates to be alone and who dominates every social setting he is in.

Anson added that Clinton's "exhaustively analyzed marriage" seems healthy, too, despite gossip linking him to a multi-continent harem. Stories also have him intending to divorce Hillary... Nonsense, say friends, who relate witnessing manifold instances of stroking and smooching.

"They are the two most co-dependent people in the world," says friend James Carville, a Democratic pundit and former Clinton campaign adviser.
