Ghostface Killah has writer's block


Iron Man: Where are the chapter outlines at?

We love it when this sort of thing is regulated to a mere blip in Publisher's Lunch. Way to bury the lead, guys:

"Ghostface Killah may be out $50,000 after he apparently got spooked by a deadline for his memoir. A Manhattan judge has ordered the Wu-Tang Clan member to return his advance when he repeatedly failed to give HarperCollins a manuscript, due in January 2002, The News' Jose Martinez reports. The rapper, who stood to make $200,000 upon delivery, wasn't available for comment."

Pay the thug up, homie. Though I doubt your publicity team over at HarperCollins is at all perturbed by the delay. This is one pitch we're glad we don't have to make.
