Vice President Kamala Harris is reportedly planning to write a book once she leaves office, six sources with knowledge of internal discussions about her future confirmed to NBC News on Wednesday (January 15).

Two sources confirmed that Harris, who will be out of elected office for the first time in more than two decades on January 20, has already decided on writing a book, though the other sources claimed it's still being considered. Harris was thrust into the 2024 presidential election after President Joe Biden ended his campaign in July, quickly being named as the Democratic candidate just months before losing to President-elect Donald Trump in November.

The vice president has said little publicly about her 107-day campaign and a published book could potentially shape her political future.

“Kamala Harris is poised to land the biggest book deal of any vice president in history,” said Keith Urbahn, president and co-founder of the literary agency Javelin, via NBC News. “But the real question isn’t the advance — it’s whether the book can redefine her for 2028.”

“There’s a version of this book that is full of platitudes but safe, and then there’s a version that reinvents her to lead a Democratic Party in need of rebuilding,” he added. “She gets a payday either way, but only the latter gets her a second shot at the presidency.”

Harris' advisers reportedly believe she has a full-length story to tell that would appeal to many readers
