Just a Geek by Wil Wheaton

Features the stories that include - the author Wil Wheaton's plunge from teen star to struggling actor; discovering the joys of HTML, blogging, Linux, and web design; the struggle between Wesley Crusher, Starfleet ensign, and Wil Wheaton, author and blogger; and, tales of Wil's relationships with his wife, step-children, and extended family.
Wil Wheaton may be one of the most unusual celebrities of our time. Born into stardom with the movie "Stand By Me", and then growing up on television as Wesley Crusher on "Star Trek: The Next Generation", Wil was in the spotlight nearly his entire childhood. Instead of burning out as a child star, he left fame behind and became a computer specialist in what Hollywood might consider the middle of nowhere: Topeka, Kansas. Now, Wil considers himself "just a geek", and both Dancing Barefoot and the forthcoming biography Just a Geek are about his journey in rediscovering himself and coming to terms with what it means to be famous, or, ironically, famous for being previously famous.
