The Philippine Online Chronicles

Former Alaska governor and Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin is ready to turn the page and begin a new chapter in her publishing career, reports The Associated Press.

The book has neither a title nor a release date just yet, but in an announcement on Wednesday, publishing company HarperCollins said that Palin is working on a book that will involve the "celebration of American virtues and strengths."

In a statement, the company said that the new book will include selections from texts, both classic and contemporary, that have inspired Palin. It will also feature portraits of exceptional men and women whom Palin admires, and who "embody her love of country, faith, and family."

Palin will expond upon these same themes, which HarperCollins describes as "timely" and "timeless," using her personal experience.

According to an e-mail sent by HarperCollins publisher Jonathan Burnham, "a number of ideas and concepts" were explored with Palin, and the current project represented the idea that appealed the most to her, adding that she is now busy with "gathering ideas and identifying favorite texts and examples." Burnham declined to comment on the terms of the book deal.

Going Rogue: An American Life, Palin's memoir, has sold more than two million copies since it was released by HarperCollins last fall. Radio host and conservative political commentator Rush Limbaugh described it as "truly one of the most substantive policy books I’ve ever read."

Just like with Going Rogue, Palin was represented in the new contract by Washington attorney Robert Barnett, whose other clients include President Barack Obama and former President George W. Bush.
