GRAND CENTRAL PUBLISHING TO PUBLISH PRISON MEMOIR BY HIP HOP STAR LIL WAYNE

New York, NY—January 12, 2012

Grand Central Publishing, a division of Hachette Book Group, announced today that it will publish GONE TILL NOVEMBER, a book by Lil Wayne, on November 28, 2012. Based on diaries he kept during his eight months on Rikers Island, GONE TILL NOVEMBER offers fans their first literary opportunity to get inside the wonderfully unique and enigmatic mind of the biggest name in hip hop.

Ben Greenberg, Executive Editor at Grand Central Publishing acquired the book from Matthew Guma at The Guma Agency. Greenberg said, “We are thrilled to be publishing Wayne’s prison memoir. He kept detailed journals of his inner and outer life while he was on Rikers Island, and they certainly tell a story. They are revealing.”

The past few years have brought Wayne incredible highs—topping albums sales charts, selling out tours, selling millions of albums, but also dark lows, resulting in a gun charge that landed him in Rikers Island for a year (of which he served 8 months). The journals he kept while incarcerated form an internal monologue, detailing his thoughts and feelings, the strange people he met, his plans, his family, his children, his past, present, and future.
