Oprah Winfrey has taken the world by storm. From hosting her self-titled talk show to owning her own cable network, OWN, she has done it all. During her talk show days, she was able to influence the masses with Oprah's Book Club. Huffington Post reports the media mogul has now signed a book deal with New York's Flatiron Books and is finally ready to tell the world her own story through her memoir, The Life You Want.

Flatiron Books, a division of international publishing company, Macmillian Publishers, is slated to release Winfrey's tell-all memoir in January 2017, according to Huffington Post.

The New York Times quotes a statement by Winfrey, "I'm still learning and I hope my story inspires other people to live the highest, fullest expression of themselves. All of my experiences even the painful ones, have been there to teach me something about life."

Winfrey, who has released a collection of short inspirational writings, co-authored numerous books about weight loss and health including, What I Know for Sure but The Life You Want, will incorporate personal stories with inspirational advice for readers, according to The New York Times.

Huffington Post reports that Bob Miller, president and publisher of Flatiron Books, praised Winfrey in a statement, "We're also thrilled to give a home to Oprah's imprint titles. We all know how extraordinary Oprah's instincts are when it comes to choosing books, instincts borne of her lifelong love of reading and the power of the written word."

A month ago, Rolling Out, posted a video with Winfrey on the Ellen Show. The video tells us that along with Winfrey now being a spokesperson for Weight Watchers, she also brought $40 million worth of stock in the company. By the end of the day, her profit doubled.

With Winfrey's business savvy portfolio, we're wondering if she has brought any stock in New York's Flatiron Books.
