Sarah Palin to write memoirs

THE father of Sarah Palin, the former governor of Alaska and US vice-presidential nominee, says his daughter is steering clear of the media spotlight to focus on writing a book of memoirs.

Chuck Heath, in Idaho campaigning for a Republican congressional candidate, said Ms Palin had been away from her Alaska home for more than a month.

Mr Heath told the Spokesman-Review he frequently had emails from her, seeking trivial information for her book – like how many points she scored in a basketball game or when the family attended the Boston Marathon.
