Harry Styles' Fan Fiction is Coming to a Bookstore Near You
Fan fiction about One Direction member Harry Styles has been snapped up by publishing company Simon & Schuster, probably because they're trying to replicate the success of Fifty Shades of Grey (which was originally Twilight fan fiction).
The story entitled After -- which was originally published on Wattpad and has 800 million reads -- was picked up for a shocking "mid-six figure deal." Our hearts, they hurt so much.S&S also purchased the "world and audio rights," giving them plenty of room to make money off spin-offs and audio books.
The story follows Tessa, a "college student with a simple life, excellent grades, and a sweet boyfriend. She always has things planned out ahead of time, until she meets a rude boy named Harry, with too many tattoos and piercings who shatters her plans."
While Tessa will retain her name, Harry's name will be changed to something else that starts with "H."
But if that doesn't work out, our vote is for Starry Hyles.NEXT: Kristen Wiig is a Better Harry Styles Than Harry Styles
