Looking for a last minute Christmas gift? I've got something that will make a PERFECT stocking-stuffer and has zero calories. It's even kind of heavy. One could perhaps lift it over and over again and blast a few calories.
More than anything this gift will ease the eternal chatter in ones brain and ease up on the straightjacket of consciousness for a few seconds.
What is this thing?
It's a book. Humbly, my book: Gladiator – A True Story of Roids, Rage and Redemption.
My powers of persuasion are not great. Instead I share with you what others other are saying about this last minute stock-stuffer:
"This book is triumphant!"
- ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER
"Nitro's respective is a ripping good read!"
- SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS
"If you read one book one vacation this year, this has to be it!"
– CHUCK PALAHNUIK (Fight Club)
"Inspiring, courageous and compelling. I cried four times."
– KAREN LUTZ (Legally Blonde, The Ugly Truth.)
“Dan Clark possesses the emotional honesty, humility and depth together with the innate literary talent and stylistic sensibility to execute this memoir with stunning eloquence and power. His lean, muscular prose never wavers off course as it leads us through his unspeakable loss, overwhelming success and ultimately into a kind of acceptance and redemption. As readers, we are fortunate that not all talented writers march automatically through grad school and into publication; some first become comics and undertakers and whalers and American Gladiators.”
-AUGUSTEN BURROUGHS (Running With Scissors)
Hopefully the words of others will entice you to pull the trigger and grab the book. I think you'll be surprised and pretty stunned by it. It's so not what you expect!
And in the spirit of Christmas — if you really can't afford the book (Amazon has it on sale) email me and I'll SEND you one. It's meant to be a GIFT. And I truly mean that!
Have a Merry Christmas! Stay safe!! And thank you for the support and friendship and good times this past year!!!
Dan Clark

A gift well worth receiving.
Yes, this would be a great gift! Here's my review of Dan's book "A story about an athlete, a son, brother, and father–about a man (testosterone and all) and a message."
