The Sarah Palin’s life story is on its way to a bookseller’s shelf near you.

The Alaska governor and former GOP Vice-Presidential candidate has signed on with HarperCollins to publish a memoir about her childhood in Alaska and the political career that thrust her into the spotlight during last year’s vice-presidential campaign.

“In fairness to my family, this is going be a good opportunity for them, too, because there have been so many misperceptions out there about who we are and what we believe in, and I’m excited to get to put my journalism degree to work and tell my story as it relates to my family,” Gov. Palin told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

Sarah Palin’s memoir is due out in spring 2010.
