NEW YORK – After writing an autobiography that sold millions of copies and earned him a hefty advance, President Clinton has struck a deal to write another book.
Alfred A. Knopf will publish the new work, in which Mr. Clinton will focus on public service and citizen activism, telling a story that he hopes will “lift spirits” and “touch hearts,” Mr. Clinton said in a statement.
The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Mr. Clinton is said to have received an advance of $10 million to $12 million for writing “My Life,” the 957-page memoir that Knopf published in 2004.
