Brothers Injured In Bombing Announce Book, Raising Funds Online

Norden brothers announce deal for upcoming book.

Two local brothers who each lost a leg in the Boston Marathon bombing have announced a book deal on their GoFundMe.com website.

JP and Paul Norden of Stoneham recently announced that their book will be called “Twice As Strong,” featuring the brothers’ account of that day’s events, as well as a look at how they will be affected in the long term.

“I don’t like that this has changed me as much as it has, but at the end of the day, I keep moving forward,” said Paul Norden on the website. “Rehabilitation is hard,” J.P. Norden agrees, “but we won’t give up.” The book is expected to be available in 2014. 

The brothers have raised about $60,000 over the past eight months via the online donations website, although their goal is to hit $500,000. Click here to learn more.
