'The X Factor' winner Leona Lewis has agreed a deal to write her autobiography.

Billboard reports that the book will be published by Hodder & Stoughton in October, in advance of the release of Lewis' second album.

Hodder & Stoughton editor Fenella Bates said: "This will be the first time Leona tells her story of how 'The X Factor' launched her from waitressing in Pizza Hut in Hackney to stardom on both sides of the Atlantic. It is a real-life fairytale and every girl's dream."

No financial details of the book deal were disclosed.
