Apparently Chris Colfer can do it all: sing, dance, act, make us cry at award shows and now we learn he can write, too!
The Glee star has just signed on to a two-book deal with Little, Brown Books for Young Readers.
What will he write about, you ask?

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the celeb's first book,� titled The Land of Stories, will be released in the summer of 2012. Stories tells the tale of twins Alex and Connor Bailey as a fast-paced adventure that mixes�the modern world with fairy tales. It will target readers ages 8-12 and will be followed by a second novel that is yet to be titled.
So where did�his writing bug come from? Well, it seems like it's been around for a while.
"When I was 10 years old, I promised myself that if I ever had the opportunity to write this book, I would jump at the chance," Colfer said in a statement. "This book has been at the core of my imagination for a long time and I'm excited and nervous to share it."
And this isn't the first project for the actor turned writer. He recently penned the scripts for a Disney Channel pilot and the movie Struck by Lightning.
Usually, overachievers make us feel bad about ourselves. But in your case, Chris, we kinda love it.
