Sarah Palin                 Tina Fey

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has been very good to entertainer Tina Fey, ah, creatively speaking. Fey, an Emmy winning writer and actress, has received tons of kudos and buzz for her recent performances impersonating the Republican V.P. nominee on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.”  Also, Fey created the popular and widely acclaimed TV comedy series, “30 Rock.”

Today, Little, Brown Publisher confirmed speculation that it has made a deal for a Fey book. There was a bidding war and some reports say the final deal may be somewhere in the low seven figures. According to a report at Publishers Weekly, the Fey book will be more humor than memoir.
