Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps has landed a book deal.
The Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps has agreed to write a memoir, "Built to Succeed," to be published by Free Press in December. The book "will reveal the secrets of his success, taking us behind the scenes of his approach to training, competition and winning," a statement from Free Press released on Friday said. The book will focus on the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing and the eight gold medals Mr. Phelps won there. He will also discuss his personal life, his upbringing by a single mother and his diagnosis of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Free Press, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, did not disclose financial terms.
We had no idea that Michael has ADHD. This should be a very inspirational and interesting book.
