Lauren Conrad Scores a Three-Book Deal

Posted on 11 September 2008 by Tammy Cakes

Lauren Conrad has signed a three-book deal with Harper-Collins to write a series called ‘L.A. Candy,’ which is  loosely based on Lauren’s experience turning into a reality TV star.

“It’s definitely influenced by my own life,”  Lauren said. “The books are about a girl who moves to L.A. and stars in a reality show, so obviously there are some similarities.”

Along with the fame comes fabulous clothes, romance and, of course, drama.

On who will be included in her books, The Hills star shared, “I’m not trying to do a fictional story based on all my friends in my real life because their stories aren’t really mine to tell. Some of the characters may symbolize people in my life, but it is in no way calling anyone out.”

“I run ideas by Lo [Bosworth] and I’ll ask for her opinion because I value my friends’ opinions,” Lauren said.

The pressure is on for LC to deliver!

Elise Howard, Senior VP/Associate Publisher of Fiction: “I’ve never seen a new project generate noise like the instant buzz that swept through our offices around this deal. We’re bracing ourselves for a blockbuster publication.”

The first book will be published next summer.

Though I don’t think that LC’s books will be any good, I’m sure they will be hot sellers being that she has so many young fans who will buy anything with her name behind it.
