Carey looks for book publishing deal

Mariah Carey has been meeting publishers in New York in a bid to sell her autobiography and a collection of poetry. According to a thirty-page proposal the book would focus on her childhood and "overcoming adversity", but would not be a memoir per se, because, as Carey's manager says: "Mariah isn't done living yet". Word is the book would be penned with music journalist David Ritz, who has written biographies on Aretha Franklin and Marvin Gaye.
