Pippa Middleton Book On The Way?

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 10/31/2011 5:40 pm Updated: 12/31/2011 4:12 am

Planning a party? Get Pippa on the line!

Some of you might remember that Pippa has a day job working for her parents' company, Party Pieces. As the Telegraph described it, "They've made a fortune out of party favours, paper plates and silly hats."

Pippa's role, among other things, is to run the company's blog, called The Party Times, where she doles out advice about planning kids' parties with articles like "Create Your Own Halloween Makeup Faces" and "Party Lighting Ideas for Every Occasion" (written by other people, it seems).

Between running the blog and attending every party on Earth, Pippa has become quite the expert. Which can only mean one thing...

Book deal!

Yes, according to sources, the famous Middleton sis has landed herself a deal writing a party planning book. The Telegraph reports that Pips has sat down with several publishing houses, including HarperCollins, and might bag a whopping 1 million pounds from the royalties, international rights and "spin-off projects" (like... a TV show? Our fingers are crossed!).

A source told the Daily Mail, "Pippa is very serious about the project and has been going to see publishers personally. Pippa hasn't signed a contract yet but I don't think it will be far off."

So what will be included in the tome? The Guardian had a few (funny) suggestions, penning a faux blog post featuring Pippa giving her best party advice:

This is my treatment for Pippa's Amazing Royal Party Book, my sister the Duchess and her husband the future King of England think that is an amazing title or I know they will when I ask them. Also I did Bunting Studies at Edinburgh. OK, so...

Who shall I ask? In my experience there is no substitute for guests. And royals are no different from the rest of us. Make sure your friends have titles or come from Saudi and everyone will be happy!

But what do I wear? For me, red will always be the brightest colour. In royal circles the second rib down is considered quite low enough, thank you! Velcro on your pants will make your dress stick to your bottom.

Conversation can be fun! But these days it looks quite dated. In royal circles an airborne bread roll is worth a thousand words.

How to say goodbye Never go home with someone whose address is more than two words long.

The last tidbit is our favorite and our new life motto.

...and we wonder why the world is such a mess! The powers at be peddle such garbage from who!!! Who is Pippa???? Because her sister married a prince (as if that means anything), she, the sister is now a celebrity. The downfall of sanity happens because people chase after such nonsense. We wonder why the economic system is such a mess--because no one has any type of brain that can handle any serious thought. If this is the type of nonsense people are thirsting for or giving concern to, we might as well jump off the planet RIGHT NOW!

OMG!!! I want to kill myself. I bet she would write a book that nobody would understand as it will be a genius work. She would talk about World Peace and War and Power in this world. Like we don't understand the kardashians. OMG-- Please show us a world where these rubbish people don't exist. PLZ!!!!

She works.....she works in a family business.....she worked there in the business before she ever became Prince William's sister-in-law. The business was built by a working family and was successful before they became in-laws to royals. Is their company now receiving more publicity than their competitors?.....no doubt about it. But, by the same token, they must now sustain and improve the quality of their products and services since they are held up to more scrutiny. I'm sure they will and that will be a great part of Pippa's job. As long as she is invested in what she is doing and the company's clientele is happy.....that is the bottom line. And yes, she is certainly beautiful and fashionable.
