Soul Patrol on Pages

The invaluable Publishers Marketplace reported on Friday that recent American Idol winner Taylor Hicks signed a book deal. The project was described as “an inspirational book presenting lessons from his decades-long path to success, striving against long odds.” The book is scheduled for publication in early 2007 to coincide with the release of Hicks’ albumn. Rick Horgan at Crown bought the book for $500,000 or higher. Alan Nevins of The Firm served as agent in the deal.

My question is… how is he going to write with all that rocking back and forth and swaying he does?
