Billy Corgan can’t keep out of the headlines recently, and that’s set to continue with the publication of a new book by the singer. A few details have already emerged, but now a tentative working title has been mooted, and the book will be published by St. Martin’s Press.

"I can say I am thrilled to be working with them,” writes Corgan in this blog post. “The book is going to be a spiritual memoir about how this boy named William came to find God, or, vice versa, how God came to find William. I can honestly say that my intention is to write a book that touches deeply on my life in a way that very few people know about, and I am excited by that, but also a bit intimidated.”

Sadly, that probably doesn’t mean sordid revelations about Jessica Simpson and Tila Tequila. “If you have ever wondered how I came to be so mercurial, reactionary, silly, or spiritually open, then this book will provide insight into that,” he continues. Uh, thanks Billy, but I might have to take a rain check on finding out about your mercurial properties. The book is tentatively titled God is Everywhere From Here to There.
