This past week saw fans of General Hospital’s Michael Easton’s (Dr. Hamilton Finn) poems and written works breaking the sales record for his limited edition 20th anniversary edition of his book 18 Straight Whiskeys.
According to Easton via a post on his facebook page, “The Bowery Press just informed me “18 Straight Whiskeys” broke the one day sales record for their limited edition books. At some point the mobile site even overloaded from the traffic (you can still order on a computer or laptop). As way of apology for the inconvenience we are extending the one day sale (10% off and free shipping) for two weeks. Thank you again and I hope you enjoy the book.”
Michael posted his appreciation relating, “THANK YOU TO ALL THE AMAZING FANS…”
You can now go directly to Michael’s website www.michaeleaston.com and also purchase this 2oth anniversary edition version. On the site if you order the book it says, “Collectors Edition Limited to 1,000 copies signed by the author. Twentieth anniversary edition of the acclaimed poetry collection plus thirty new poems. First two printings sold out.”
Easton appeared on the season premiere of the podcast series, Soap Nation Live! back in August discussing his work and the edition of the new poems to the collection and the significance these writings have had in his life.

In shocking news to so many, This Is Us star Justin Hartley (Kevin Pearson) has filed for divorce after two years of marriage from former Days of our Lives’and Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause (Jordan Ridgeway).
According to court documents on Friday via TMZ, Justin is citing irreconcilable differences as the cause of the split.
The date of their separation is listed as July 8, 2019, which has perplexed those in the media when the pair have been seen together in recent months at Hollywood events and sharing posts of one another on their social media accounts.
Justin and Chrishell were last seen together in public last week on November 14th at a Hollywood Reporter-sponsored pre-Golden Globes party. Reps for both actors have you to share statements or make a comment.
Hartley and Stause tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at Malibu’s Calamigos Ranch back in October 28th, 201, which was four years to the day after they met.
As daytime fans know, Justin and Chrishell met when they were both part of the soap opera community. Justin was last on daytime as Adam Newman on The Young and the Restless. Hartley has one child, Isabella, from a previous marriage to another soap actress, Lindsay Korman, who he met when they both were on the defunct NBC soap Passions. Justin and Lindsay were married for 8 years.
We will update you as they warrant in this developing story. And on personal note: we wish nothing but the best for both Justin and Chrishell.
