Bristol Palin is following in her mother's footsteps, at least as far as authoring books goes: Palin has signed with William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins, to publish Not Afraid of Life , a memoir in which she chronicles her life, from growing up as the daughter of a political figure to becoming a teenage mother to the highs and lows of being a contestant on ABC's Dancing With the Stars. HarperCollins has published Sarah Palin's two bestsellers Going Rogue and America by Heart. Morrow announced in a statement about Bristol's new book: "She speaks candidly of her aspirations for the future and deep religious faith that gives her strength and inspiration."
