Up-and-coming Author

Chris Colfer is diversifying some more.

The Golden Globe-winning Glee MVP is looking to add to his growing résumé – he’s already working on his big-screen debut in a movie of his own writing – and will pen two books for Little, Brown Books for Young Readers.

Colfer’s first tome, The Land of Stories, is set to hit shelves next summer. It will be an adventure novel that draws elements from classic fairy tales. A second book will arrive in stores later in the year.

The actor sure has been flexing his writing muscle. He recently oversaw the scripts for a Disney Channel pilot as well. So good for him for not resting on his laurels, huh.
