Nicole Richie is to complete her TV comeback by turning her 2005 book 'The Truth About Diamonds' into a drama series.
The 'Simple Life' star recently shot a cameo role for hit sitcom 'Chuck' and now looks set to star in a new production based on her own coming-of-age novel.
Richie has signed up as a producer on the series and will also appear in the show, although it is not yet known whether she will be tackling the lead role.
She tells Eonline: "I would definitely produce and definitely be in the show. I don't know if I need to be the star of this show. I've got a lot going on right now."
The books tells the story of a young girl adopted by a superstar musician who hits the Hollywood party scene and ends up in rehab.
It is thought to be a thinly-veiled memoir of Richie's own life.
The actress is currently working on her second novel, although she refuses to give away any of the details.
She adds: "I'm not telling you (the plot). It's not finished."
