America isn't done hearing from Hillary Clinton just yet. On Wednesday, publisher Simon & Schuster announced it's publishing a new book of personal essays written by the two-time Democratic presidential candidate.

The book, due out in the fall of 2017, focuses on Clinton's experiences "up to and including her experiences in the 2016 presidential campaign," Simon & Schuster said in a statement. The essays are inspired by quotes the former secretary of state says she's been collecting "for decades." "These are the words I live by," Clinton said. "These quotes have helped me celebrate the good times, laugh at the absurd times, persevere during the hard times, and deepen my appreciation of all life has to offer."

Before her book comes out, Clinton will be offering up some words of wisdom on May 26 as Wellesley College's 2017 commencement speaker. This will be Clinton's second time speaking at a Wellesley commencement ceremony; she previously spoke at her alma mater during her own commencement ceremony in 1969, becoming the first student to ever do so.
