Anna Kendrick Book Deal: Actress' Sense Of Humor Lands Her a Publishing Contract

It appears that Touchstone believes that Anna Kendrick is worth much more than 140 characters, being that they just signed her a book deal.

Kendrick is penning a so far untitled book, filled with autobiographical essays that covers everything from her "memorable moments throughout her life," to her middle-class upbringing in New England, and making it in Hollywood.

"I'm excited to publish my first book, and because I get uncomfortable when people have high expectations, I'd like to use this opportunity to showcase my ineptitude, pettiness, and the frequency with which I embarrass myself," Kendrick said in a news release.

"And while many of my female inspirations who have become authors are incredibly well-educated and accomplished comedy writers, I'm very, very funny on Twitter, according to BuzzFeed and my mom, so I feel like this is a great idea."

The "Pitch Perfect" actress is very relatable in her Twitter posts, writing just what everyone is thinking - such as her April 13 post where she hints that she would love to see some male nudity in "The Game Of Thrones."

Before writing she just has one question:

"Are run-on sentences still frowned upon? Wait, is ending a sentence with a preposition still frowned upon? I mean, upon frowned? Dammit!"
