Golden Globe winner Chris Colfer came in to speak with “Elvis Duran and the Morning Show” about his new book “The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell” in stores now.Chris said writing the book was a process that required a lot of self-discipline. He wrote a majority of the book while he was touring worldwide with the cast of “Glee”. The largest sense of fulfillment came when he finished the book. When asked whom the first copy of the book went too, Chris said it was his Grandma. Elvis spoke to Chris about why he chose not to write an autobiography; he said that being only 22 (he was approached to write an autobiography two years ago) he lacked the life experience necessary. He felt there were not enough lessons to pass down to his fellow readers. Instead he chose to write fiction, which he said is almost his way of writing his own autobiography. The book is for ages 8-12 but he said anyone looking for a magical adventure should pick it up. Danielle Monaro was praising the book throughout the interview; Chris even noted she was a great saleswoman. Writing is a huge part of Chris’ life now in addition to Glee he is writing a screenplay, which takes a darker turn. He revealed exclusively that the screenplay he is currently writing would take place in a 1930’s asylum.
