Ellen DeGeneres Writing Third Book

Posted on June 17, 2010

Ellen DeGeneres is writing another book. Her new book will be published by Grand Central Publishing, a division of Hachette Book Group. The book, not yet titled, will take a look at her life through her humor. It is slated for publication in fall 2011. This will be Ellen's third book. Her previous books, My Point...And I Do Have One (1995) and The Funny Thing Is... (2003) were both New York Times bestsellers.

Ellen said, "I'm excited to be writing another book. I found that between my talk show, American Idol and my late night blogging, I didn't have enough ways to express myself."

Update: Ellen's new book is called Seriously...I'm Kidding. It hit the New York Times bestseller list so we won't be surprised to see a fourth book from Ellen in a few years.
