Martha Stewart, who has published 100 books in her lifetime, is finally working on her autobiography.
The 77-year-old domestic diva let word of her autobiographical project slip on Tuesday during a panel of the American Magazine Media conference in New York.
“I’m thinking about it,” Stewart said in a Q&A with InStyle editor-in-chief Laura Brown.
But afterwards, she told Media Ink, “I’ve already started writing it” and that she expected it to hit shelves “in about three years.”
Stewart has a lot of ground to cover. Aside from the magazine empire she built around her flagship Martha Stewart Living, she also served a stint in federal prison in 2004 and 2005 for lying to investigators in the ImClone stock scandal.
Her independent company was imperiled but she eventually made a dramatic comeback. The magazine is now published by Meredith.
“I still have six books to do for Clarkson Potter,” Stewart noted, referring to the imprint now a part of Penguin Random House, which has long published her food-related books.
Her latest bestseller, “How to Do Almost Everything,” is with Houghton Mifflin.
The future publisher of her autobiography, however, is still “TBD,” Stewart said.
