Meghan McCain Lands High Six-Figure Book Deal

Posted on April 9, 2009

The New York Observer reports that Meghan McCain, daughter of Presidential candidate John McCain, has landed a book deal. The amount is said to be in the high six-figure range. The Observer says Hyperion outbid three other publishers in an auction for the book.

The Observer says, "Sources say Hyperion has prevailed over at least three other publishers in an auction that began earlier this week, following a round of meetings during which the in-your-face young conservative and the literary agent she shares with her father, Sterling Lord Literistic president Flip Brophy, discussed a number of possible approaches to the book with editors around town."

This is technically Meghan's second book. She is the author of the children's book, My Dad, John McCain, which was published in 2008. Meghan should not have any trouble writing the book as she was able to frequently update her blog during the 2008 campaign and continues to post regularly.

Update: The cover of Meghans' book, Dirty Sexy Politics, was added above.
