Oprah Winfrey will publish her memoirs in a new book deal according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The US talk show host has signed a deal with Flatiron Books for her memoir "The Life You Want," to be published in January 2017.

Winfrey is said to be currently in the early stages of writing the memoir, which will feature never-before-told stories from the star's life. In a statement Winfrey expressed her hope that her story "inspires other people to live the highest, fullest expression of themselves" and added that "anyone can put their life on a new trajectory."

Bob Miller, president and publisher of Flatiron Books, commented on the new saying, "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," adding that the memoir will be "a remarkable combination of Oprah's life story and the lessons we can all draw from it for our personal growth."
