Now that Pippa Middleton is set to write a £400,000 book deal with Penguin Classics on how to properly host a party, it seems that she is more than ready to take on this new venture.

The younger sister of the Duchess of Cambridge has scored a massive £400,000 ($630,000) publishing deal with Penguin Classics after a fiery bidding with other publishers.

It was said that heavy hitters such as Harper Collins and Random House battled with Penguin for rights to royal sister's book, but were unfortunately outbid.

Unlike other celebrities who release books and hire ghost writers to do the dirty work for them, Pippa is hell bent on do the writing herself. Having come from a highly educated background, writing party tips should be a breeze to the socialite.

Close pals say, Pippa is quite "challenged" do the job, but does it nevertheless. According to a source, Pippa has been focusing on writing each day, making sure that she spends more than a couple of hours to accomplish drafts.

"Pippa says it's a nerve-racking prospect but she is looking forward to the challenge of writing her first book," says a close friend.
