At any rate, it doesn't look like he's going to write a book and that it was a struggle making that decision, while Ken is busy writing his second one. Makes me wonder if Richard is also struggling financially. Anyway, it's just sad to see this happen to someone who was so much the fabric of Mac's very long heyday. I won't speculate on how the band has been treating him... would likely be a big can of worms that doesn't need to be opened up.
Richard if you are out there, know you are much loved by the fans. We hope for the best for you and don't hesitate to put up a GoFundMe if you need to.

this post seems to go on a very old info?
Ken has already written his 2nd book and it's available now. Richard has changed his mind and decided to write a book after all.
Richard seems to have a lot of health -related problems, but as one of the 2 producers of Rumours, somehow i doubt that money would be his problem. he also always states that money-wise he's been extremely lucky and well set and is happy to give something back to a larger FM community.
