Sarah Jessica Parker set to launch line of books

Sarah Jessica Parker is set to launch a new line of books – just like her Sex And The City character, Carrie Bradshaw.

The actress is bringing her onscreen character to life and is working with Hogarth Publishing to publish the new line of books under the imprint SJP For Hogarth.

“As a lifelong book lover, as someone who treasures and admires the skill and talent of original and powerful story tellers it is my great privilege to be invited into the world and business of books,” she said.

It was at a luncheon in New York that the 51-year-old met with Hogarth’s Senior Vice President Molly Stern – where she first was introduced to the company.

“Award-winning television and film actress, producer, and designer Sarah Jessica Parker is launching a new line of books named SJP for Hogarth,” the press release stated.

“An avid reader who traces her lifelong love of writing to an early childhood spent checking books out of her local library, Ms. Parker’’ association with Hogarth began in 2012 when she met Ms. Stern by chance at a media luncheon in New York.

“[The new line] will selectively publish high-quality works of fiction by both established writers and distinctive emerging voices with critical and commercial promise, with its first list anticipated to debut in 2018.”
