JoJo has announced a new project, one that’s quite different from anything she’s done before. You may know her as a singer, a songwriter, an actress, or all three. Now she’s taking on a new title, an author.

Taking to social media to share the news, JoJo penned an open letter to fans announcing her first memoir, ‘Over The Influence,’ will hit bookshelves on September 17th. “This book is for anyone who has ever felt disillusioned, disconnected, but underneath it all DETERMINED to find themselves and a new way of being,” she wrote to fans.

Speaking with Bustle, JoJo reveled she wrote “close to 200,000 words” for the memoir. “I’ve lost myself so many times through the process of starting so young because you’re trying to figure out who you are,” she says.

JoJo is no stranger when it comes to having the courage to speak on her mental health and why it’s so important to be your authentic self, no matter what. Concluding with Bustle, JoJo says “There are a lot of people that could benefit from you being a different way than how you naturally are, and I just can’t live that way anymore.“

‘Over The Influence,’ by JoJo is available now for pre-order and hits bookshelves everywhere on September 17th. Be sure to keep up with the queen on IG and X + sign up for more special news on her official website.
