Memoirs of a Bigfoot
Posted by: Craig Woolheater on December 1st, 2005
Graham Roumieu’s followup to the hilarious In Me Own Words: The Autobiography of Bigfoot is just out. Titled Me Write Book: It Bigfoot Memoir is now available on Amazon for only $10.20. If it is half as funny as the first book, it’s a bargain at twice the price.
Roumieu says he was shocked at how well the sales from In Me Own Words were, and felt its success was reason enough to revisit the mythical woodland beast.
"It’s turned into a bit of a cult classic," he says of Bigfoot’s literary debut. "Well, I don’t know if three years of OK sales denotes a cult classic, but I think some people notice me on the street."
Roumieu explains that, while the first book was more centred on Bigfoot’s upbringing — namely his failed film career, multiple divorces and other sources of inner turmoil — Me Write Book takes his character further.
"I had no intentions with the second one. I just figured, ‘I can milk this for a bit more material’ and it actually took off and then evolved a little," says Roumieu. "It’s essentially the same concept, but the content is entirely different and there’s a bit more character growth. As crude as Bigfoot is, he’s gotten more sophisticated."
