Lock-Fill Today

Former President Joe Biden is said to have sold a memoir of his presidency to Little, Brown “for an advance in the range of $10 million, according to people familiar with the matter,” the WSJ reports. The 82-year-old had indicated earlier this month at an event that he was “working my tail off” to write the book. As was the case in his previous book deal with Flatiron Books in 2017, Biden was represented by CAA. Neither the publisher nor the agency confirmed details to the WSJ, which says that Hachette Book Group acquired world rights.
