Britney Spears, Book Deal: Singer In Talks to Pen a Novel?

Oops, I did it again...and again...and again? After penning two books before with her mother, Lynne Spears: "Heart-to-Heart" in 2000 and "A Mother's Gift" in 2001, Britney Spears is in talks to a pen a new novel.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the singer is reaching a deal with publishers at HarperCollins imprint It Books to write fiction. Spears' rep confirmed that It Books is having "discussions" with her.

The X Factor judge's writing plans are being compared to Lauren Conrad's books, which are fictionalized versions of her own life on the MTV series, The Hills.

Spears has previously said how important reading is to her. "Every night, I have to read a book, so that my mind will stop thinking about things that I stress about," she shared.

The news comes a few days after a judge dismissed ex-manager Sam Lutfi's libel and breach-of- contract lawsuit against the Spears family.

I think we should avoid the confusion of the phrases "pen a novel" and "sell your name to be placed on the cover so we can all make more money".

I can see the novel now. 200 blank pages should do it

That's a pretty picture of Britney. More power to her that she's still working. It seems like pop stars have a shelf life of about five minutes these days.

Don't friggen worry about it. I think she was/is doing the same as others. I am glad her Dad helped her as she is Bipolar same as I am. Quit being haters and worry about something much larger than this stupid article (video). I hope you never get it as it can ruin your life. Without the right meds. there is no telling what one will do with this awful illness. I pray for her and I am very happy for her. Forget the darn dresses and past and move on as you should because life does.

Wow , what's with all the rude negative comments about Britney ? This woman had some personal problems many years ago but got herself set straight and has been doing very well for her and her kids. She not only is a great singer but she is also a model , she owns several perfume lines and has her own clothing line as well as a few acting stints over the years. Sounds like several people on here need a reality check and need to stop being so jealous of someone else's accomplishments.

I was so stunned to see Britney on Xfactor. I was expecting her to be the ditz I once thought her to be. But I actually wept when I saw how much she had grown up. The way she treats her job and the kids she's mentoring moves me. It's like she grew up and has a mothers heart now. Really I weep when I think of how much she has changed and grown up. Her beauty now is much more internal and that kind of beauty never fades. Britney I never thought I'd say this about you because in the past I felt only contempt for your ego driven mania, but you move my heart so deeply now. You make watching Xfactor a pleasure because you bring a mature attitude to the show. I feel your heart for the contestants and it's just right! I'm glad to see that fame hasn't destroyed yet another good person. You're a survivor. And better then a survivor....you're a lovely human being.

Darn! I was hoping her new career was holding bulls-eye targets at pistol ranges.

Well since she's busy with a great life and career, why don't you go hold the targets ?
