Actress Mary-Louise Parker has quite a few mediums under her belt, such as television, film and the stage. And she seems to have mastered them all. Now, Deadline reports that the former Weeds star is gearing up to tackle yet another one –– the page! Yes, Parker will reportedly pen her very own memoir for Scribner, a New York-based publishing house owned by Simon and Schuster.

The publishers are calling Parker's upcoming book "an autobiographical literary work of nonfiction" titled Dear Mr. You. The book has a rumored release date for fall of 2015.

In a statement from Scribner, the actress' book "will uniquely relate Mary-Louise Parker's experiences and perceptions through a series of letters to the significant men in her life."

"From Frank McCourt to Jeanette Walls to Anjelica Huston, Scribner loves a great memoirist, and Mary-Louise Parker is one," claims Scribner's Senior Vice President and Publisher Nan Graham of the actress and her writing. She adds, "Her writing is magnificent; the conceit – a memoir in letters to men – is wholly original and brilliantly executed."

Parker, of course, gained a hefty amount of recognition from Showtime's hugely popular series Weeds, which aired from 2005 - 2012. She's also earned herself much high praise from roles on the Broadway stage and in HBO's Angels In America, which earned her both an Emmy and a Golden Globe. Additionally, she won a Golden Globe for her role of Nancy Botwin in Weeds.

So, if you're looking to learn a little more about Parker's personal life, it looks like Dear. Mr. You is the book for you!
