New York - The British author of the Fifty Shades Of Grey erotic trilogy will be following up her success with a journal that will be available in bookstores in time for Mother's Day in May, its US publisher said on Monday.
Vintage Books said Fifty Shades Of Grey: Inner Goddess (A Journal) by EL James will be a bonded-leather soft cover journal in which readers and aspiring writers can record their innermost thoughts.
It will include a forward by James, excerpts from the erotic novels, which have sold more than 70 million copies worldwide, along with writing tips and a playlist of music she found inspiring.
“As EL James travelled and met with her readers, there was a great curiosity about how she got started writing,” Vintage/Anchor's Anne Messitte, the acquiring publisher of the series, said in a statement.
“Her personal story as a writer is inspirational to many women, and journaling has been an important part of her creative process from the start,” Messitte said.
There are plans for a Fifty Shades movie and the author also has approved a Fifty Shades of Grey: The Classical Album, featuring Bach and Chopin. - Reuters
