During an interview on Tuesday with the Associated Press, first lady Laura Bush revealed that she was planning to write a memoir and that she had also met with several publishers with regards to her project.

For the meetings with the publishers, which are highly confidential, Laura Bush has chosen Washington attorney Robert Barnett to represent her, the latter having previously served clients such as former president of the United States Bill Clinton and wife Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, as well as Senator Edward Kennedy.

The first lady has also worked with Barnett when she and daughter Jenna co-authored a children’s book about a boy who didn’t like to read, which was based on the women’s experience as teachers.

A publishing executive has revealed for the Associated Press that Laura Bush would write a non-critical, positive work, thus meaning she would not be taking a leaf out of Nancy Reagan’s „My Turn” book, through which she set the record straight with some of her enemies, including former White House chief of staff Donald Regan.

Hillary Clinton also published an autobiography called “Living History” back in 2003, for which publisher Simon & Schuster paid an $8 million advance as early as December 2000.

The former first lady was reported to have used three ghostwriters for her memoir, Maryanne Vollers, speechwriter Alison Muscatine and researcher Ruby Shamir.

Laura and Jenna Bush’s children’s book „Read All About It!” was published by HarperCollins last spring and so far, it has sold 77,000 copies, according to Nielsen BookScan, a data provider for the book industry.
