Should Maria Shriver commit to writing a tell-all memoir she could get more than $15 million as a advance! This would break all records for a book advance. Shriver filed for divorce from Arnold Schwarzenegger on Friday and is now the hottest topic in the book world.
A top publishing executive revealed that Maria would likely be offered in excess of the all-time advance record paid to Bill Clinton for his memoir, My Life. Shriver is already the author of six best-selling books, including ‘And One More Thing Before You Go…’ and ‘What’s Happening to Grandpa?’
But a tell-all about growing up a Kennedy and especially her life with the cheating Arnold and learning he fathered a child by their maid, that’s a whole different story — literally — and it could set sales records. The hope of at least one extremely interested publisher is that she’ll agree to a deal once her divorce is finalized, even though the pub date might not be until after her youngest child Christopher turns 18 in 2015.

My bet is that Arnold might offer Maria double whatever publishers come up with NOT to write the book!
