Phil Collins has been writing an autobiography he describes as being embarrassingly honest. The book chronicles his early years as a child actor right through his time with Genesis and emergence as a solo artist. Speaking of the book and his life, Collins says, 'In many respects I've had a dream life. I've been incredibly lucky, but I've also worked extremely hard. I've collaborated with some of my heroes, written songs that people have liked, and wildly surpassed my initial hope to make a living as a drummer.' In addition to covering all of the phases of his musical career, Not Dead Yet will delve into his fascination with the Alamo, his three marriages and his struggle to overcome a drinking problem. The book is due on October 20 and will also be available in an audio edition read by Collins.
