Clint Black Releases His New ‘Killin’ Time’ Memoir
Earlier this year, Black released his Killin’ Time memoir, a look back at his legendary life and career.
“I just had all the right people around me talking me into it,” Black tells Everything Nash. “That’s why now. … I never thought I could write a book.”
Killin’ Time includes not only stories about Black’s rise to superstardom in country music, but also some of his most painful times, including losing his father to suicide in 2012. It was a journey of highs and lows for Black, who had to relive the moments when writing Killin’ Time.
“I relived it in the writing, and then I relived it in the reading for editing and editor’s notes,” Black recalls. “And then I relived it again with more notes, and just going through and rereading the book about five times, just in the editing process. And by the time I had gotten toward the end of doing that, I was actually really, I think to the best extreme, reliving it. And the writing, I’m looking; I’m relearning when things happened, and I’m trying to come up with the wording.
“And I am feeling things,” he adds. “But not like I did when I got toward the end of that process. And now I’m reading my book as a reader, an examiner. And while I was examining, the impact of my stories got through completely to me. And there were times when I cried over things.”
Black will be part of the 2027 Country Music Cruise, along with Wynonna Judd, Joe Nichols, The Bellamy Brothers, Neal McCoy, Wade Hayes, Billy Dean, Darryl Worley, The Malpass Brothers, Jimmy Fortune, Rhonda Vincent, and more. The 2027 Country Music Cruise will take place from February 7 – 14, with stops in San Juan and St. Maarten.
