“Would You Believe
This Day?”
When Jacqueline Stallone came to Kuala Lumpur to launch my book in January 2007, she left me these words on my Rocky Balboa poster:
“Gerald, from Jacqueline Stallone. Would You Believe This Day?”
For me, that inscription captures the wonder of a dream finally becoming real. After years of trying to bring In the Eye of the Tiger into print, here was Stallone’s mother celebrating that moment with me.
