Former President Bush just signed a $7 million book deal. And that's not fuzzy math.


"What can I say, dear reader? I ducked."

It was just a matter of time. Former President Bush has signed a $7 million book deal with Crown. The man can hardly speak, but maybe he's better when he self-edits?

The tentative title of the memoir is Decision Points, and he's written 30,000 words of it already (Can you just see him doing a word count on his computer?). While Bush hasn't confirmed how much he'll touch on the more controversial decisions during his administration (like say, oh the Iraq War), he did mention that he'll be writing about his personal life decisions, like quitting drinking.

Personally, I'm a bit disappointed that our former President Bush passed up the opportunity to be the first public official to publish an entire book in Tweets. Can't you just see it?

UPDATE: The Guardian UK has more details on the book. It is conceptualized around 12 specific decisions Bush made, from quitting drinking to the Iraq War. [Source]
