Nicola Sturgeon says she is writing a memoir covering her proudest achievements and regrets from her Time In politics.
Scotland's former First Minister said she would " reveal the person behind the politics" in The Book , which is due to be released in 2025.

Ms Sturgeon said the prospect of writing The Book was exciting and daunting.
It will cover an era in British and Scottish Politics which included the 2014 Scottish independence referendum and the Brexit vote.

She took over as leader of the Scottish National Party after the 2014 referendum and remained in charge until February this year.
The memoir promises to reveal Ms Sturgeon's rise from being a " Shy Child from a working-class family in Ayrshire to The Steps of Bute House".
Pan MacMillan is part of the Macmillan Publishers International group, which was founded in the 1800s by Scottish brothers, Daniel and Alexander MacMillian.
The publisher acquired the rights to The Book in an auction among nine different publishers. It has not been revealed how much was paid.
Mike Harpley, Pan MacMillan's non-fiction publishing director, said he was Looking Forward to working with Ms Sturgeon who he described as a " lover of literature".
He Said : " It is no surprise that the extracts she has already written are notable for their wit, honesty and excellent writing. "
