Former Monomi gov to write book
TREETON--Ousted Gov. Scott King Jr. (NAT) will soon release a book about his political career and subsequent fall from grace, according to sources close to him.
King was recalled by Monomi voters in 2010, after being the subject of state and federal criminal investigations. He was replaced by Lt. Gov. Erica Kinsley, who, despite being elected with King on the same ticket, called on him to resign and openly stated her disapproval when he chose to stick it out until he was recalled.
Now King, who is appealing to the state supreme court over what he calls a "fraudulent recall election," is writing a book about the recall ordeal. He'll also address his now-strained relationship with Kinsley, who was once his close adviser and political partner.
A source close to King, who did not want to be named as to not pre-empt the announcement, told the Treeton Sun that King has been offered a generous book deal from Dollenwood Publishers. A spokesperson for the company would not comment on the deal, but did acknowledge the publishing group has "been in talks" with King.
Kinsley is also rumored to be looking into a book deal, though her office has declined to comment as well.
