The Book!

Andy announces his forthcoming memoir.

August 8, 2011

 

I am excited to announce this morning that I've signed with Henry Holt and Company to write a book! It'll be a memoir, of sorts, about my intersections with pop culture over the years, from growing up in front of the TV as a kid in St. Louis to my years at CBS News, all the way up to today. The stories I've been saving up are funny and improbable and really define who I am today.  

This is something I've always wanted to do and, if you've read this blog much over the past seven years, you know that writing is something I enjoy. And, yes, I will write every word of it, I don't know how I could settle for anything less than writing it myself. I started last weekend and have much work to do (understatement) before it comes out next summer. 

Here are some titles that you will NOT see on the cover of my book:

A Million Little Mazels

Andy!

Curlytop!

Rainy Days and Mazels

Vicki and Me: My Secret Affair with the Queen of Insurance 

Every Which Way But Mazel

Stories Sarah Jessica Told Me 

Hope Over Heartbreak: My Battle with Rosacea

I agree completely!

You'r exactly correct with this writing...

I dont disagree with you...

Hi Andy. I have enjoyed Watch What Happens from the get-go, but what blew me away tonight after reading your bio was discovering that you are responsible for my addiction to Bravo.

From Top Chef to Project Runway to Housewives galore! Thank you. Not to mention the amazing mixture of cocktails and guests on Watch What happens Live.
I love that you have so much fun while you are doing what you do. You are such a delight. When you had the Momala chauffered up the the city from Miami I nearly fell off my chair laughing. What a heart. Keep it coming and please don't wear yourself out.

"Watching What Happens...the REALity Life of Andy Cohen"

"The Man Andy Cohen" A book signing in San Diego is a must.

a wee bit 'o me

Congrats Andy:) You rock. I really enjoy your clever wit and can't wait to read your book.

You and Vicki? I knew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Her being married, you liking men, it was all a ruse.

The title of the book should be "Bravo Andy" or "The Real Andy"
Love you and all the shows on Bravo, can't wait for this book.

Love you Andy, you are the real reason I watch Bravo.

I love the title , "Bravo Andy" or "A Million Little Mazels" can't wait for this book.

Title: Watch What Happens NOW.

Congrats on your to be book, will definitely read!

ANdy..you've got to help us: I hope you or the powers that be at Bravo see this:

What is the name of the theme song for the show FLIPPING OUT? Can you post it on twitter please???? Or Facebook? OR HERE?

Mazel!!!

Great news, Andy!

How about "Here's What"...one of your many Andyisms!

Can't wait for the book! I hope you reveal how you select castmembers for all
the RH........Is it that you must have rockin "Granite" kitchen countertops? Or, is it a must that you have a "Make-up/Hair Stylist" that makes housecalls?
I'm waiting on my pins and needles!

Congratulations Andy! Look forward to the sure to be scintillating read.

Congratulations on the book deal! It's going to be a great read, I can feel it.
Possible titles?
Andy Cohen, Out of the Clubhouse
or......
Straight out of St. Louis

But, I think "A Million little Mazels" is kind of brilliant.

Bravo Andy is brilliant, kudos to jbennet!

Mazel!

ANDY, WHEN ARE THE BEVERLY HOUSEWIVES RETURNING???? I LOVE THEM!!!!

BEST news I've heard all week! This book will be top of my 2012 Summer reading list. Congratulations Andy. Mazel Tov!

rosacea's no laughing matter!

Congrats! and thanks again for getting Ramona to play "shag"/marry/kill on the aftershow from my tweet haha, made me feel like a celebrity for a moment.

Title ideas:

Andy's 411.

Read What Happens: Live.

hmmm...

My Life In Reruns or something like that.

A Viewer Like You: My Journey from Watching TV to Creating It

I dunno, you'll come up with something better. Look forward to reading it!

Go, Andy! You go boy!! Congrats:) You definitely deserve it. My mom & I love you!!!

I know it may be hokey since it's Bravo's tag, but how about just naming the book By Andy? (BTW - it's killing me that I can't underline that in the comment box format!!) How chic and simple would the cover design be with the dialogue box? I know it leans very heavily on your current work at Bravo, but that's how so many of us got to know you and what we associate you with. Regardless of what the title will be I can't wait to read it. Mazel!

Can't wait to read it. Good luck! You are an inspiration and we could all learn a lot from you!

So excited to read it! You are an inspiration and we could all learn a lot from you.

Best of luck!

Dear Andy: Mazel and congratulations on your upcoming book. I can't wait to read it. Love Bravo and watch it more than any other station. Thanks for thee laughs I always get while watching Bravo. Best wishes.

Congratualations Andy!! I can't wait to read this book! I will be first in line to pick it up!

My less than brilliant suggestion:

Andy: My Observations and Obsessions, Thus Far!

Andy,

Cindy and Alex need to go. They add no value to the show and are really stupid.

any nude photos in that book?

As always I heart you. Your so funny. I would read anything you did! I thought Jerry was Awesome, yes you had to reign his wordy self in but he cared to make it a great show! You seemed a little over it. You must be working to hard doll!

Hi Andy- Will Bravo ever create a Housewives from the Midwest? I think the ladies in Chicago or Detroit would be a great addition to the Housewives franchise. Thank you. Love you Andy your show is great!!!

First thing I thought of was "Bravo Andy"....

This is so exciting! I read your interview in Vanity Fair and you promised your memoir would be called Gemini, and as someone who shares that sign, I strongly endorse it :)

Congrats Andy! How about "Read What Happens"? :)

Congratulations Andy! What an amazing accomplishment. Can't wait to here all of your amazing stories. Mazel!

I am all over this when it comes out. In such depressing times you have managed to make reality tv, light, fun and entertaining. Thank you and I would die without my Bravo. xo Kris

Mazel, Andy! Why not go with the "A Million Little Mazels" title? I love that!
Congrats again!

-Nicole

Andy,
Congratulations! I know you will come up with a fabulous title for the book and it will be a huge hit. I am also predicting that when it comes out, it will be SO good that everyone will want to "LICK IT"! :-) Mazel Tov!

Congrats! love ya!
