Jaycee Dugard, who survived being kidnapped at age 11 and held captive for 18 years, is writing a memoir. Dugard’s book is scheduled to come out next year, Simon & Schuster announced Monday. Financial terms were not disclosed. According to the publisher, the 30-year-old Dugard will write the currently untitled book herself and cover her life from her abduction in 1991 to how she is doing now. “When I read the pages, I was moved and inspired by the raw power of Jaycee Dugard’s voice, her strength and her resilience,” Simon & Schuster publisher and executive vice president Jonathan Karp said of what she has written so far.
