Lily Allen writing a book inspired by Nora Ephron`s collection

Los Angeles: Singer-actress Lily Allen is writing a book after being inspired by novelist Nora Ephron's collection.

The 31-year-old "The Fear" hitmaker announced the news on Twitter and shared that she is motivated by the collection of self-help essays of Ephron, "I Feel Bad About My Neck: And Other Thoughts on Being a Woman."

"I read Nora Ephron's 'I feel bad about my neck' today. It inspired me to start writing a book, I've been writing solidly for 3hrs #eurekamoment (sic)," the actress wrote.

"I Feel Bad About My Neck" is a book which chronicles Ephron's life as an obsessed cook, passionate city dweller, and hapless parent.

But mostly she speaks frankly and uproariously about life as a woman of a certain age.
