Mad Men: Grove Press Publishing Roger Sterling's Fictional Memoir

Posted on October 27, 2010

Mad Men is a popular television series from AMC. Roger Sterling, played by John Slatter, is one of the ad men on the series. Sterling has written a memoir that is leaping from the screen into reality.

Grove Press is publishing Roger Sterling's fictional memoir from Mad Men. Sterling's Gold: Wit and Wisdom of an Ad Man promises quips, barbs, and witticisms from the legendary ad man. Here are some highlights:

You want to be on some people's minds. Some people's you don't.
The day you sign a client is the day you start losing them.
Being with a client is like being in a marriage. Sometimes you get into it for the wrong reasons and eventually they hit you in the face.
Don't you love the chase? Sometimes it doesn't work out. Those are the stakes. But when it does work out - it's like having that first cigarette. Your head gets all dizzy, your heart pounds, your knees go weak. Remember that? Old business is just old business.
When a man gets to a point in his life when his name's on the building, he can get an unnatural sense of entitlement.
Remember, when God closes a door, he opens a dress.

Sterling's Gold will be released on November 16. It can be pre-ordered from Amazon.com.
