Actress Anna Kendrick revealed in a recent press release that she is writing a book. It will be a series of witty essays on her life. Kendrick's book is set to release in Fall 2016. It will also feature an audio version.

"I'm excited to publish my first book and because I get uncomfortable when people have high expectations, I'd like to use this opportunity to showcase my ineptitude, pettiness, and the frequency with which I embarrass myself. And while many of my female inspirations who have become authors are incredibly well-educated and accomplished comedy writers, I'm very, very funny on Twitter, according to BuzzFeed and my mom, so I feel like this is a great idea," said Kendrick in a press release.

Kendrick is 29-years-old. She was born in Portland, Maine and was entered Broadway at the age of thirteen. She has acted in hit films, "Twilight,' "Up in the Air,' and "Pitch Perfect.' Kendrick will also star in "Pitch Perfect 2.' The movie hits theaters on May 16.

"We are delighted to publish Anna Kendrick. She is the rare entertainer whose impressive arsenal of talents is equally matched by her sharp wit and wry observations about life," stated Touchstone Publisher Susan Moldow.
