Alec Baldwin will be bringing his Donald Trump impression the literary world, as co-author of a parody memoir on the current president of the United States.

The actor and novelist Kurt Andersen are co-writing a satirical book called You Can’t Spell America Without Me: The Really Tremendous Inside Story of My Fantastic First Year as President Donald J. Trump, Penguin Press announced.

Baldwin's impression, which he regularly rolls out on variety show 'Saturday Night Live', has been criticsed by Trump's press secretary Sean Spicer, having previously called the actor's impersonations "mean".

Anderson told the New York Times the book will go beyond the 'SNL' sketches to offer more of an overall narrative.

Meanwhile, Baldwin admitted he won't be doing much of the actual writing.

"I think it’s fair to say that Kurt will do most of the writing,” Baldwin told the Times. “We have that arrangement whereby he doesn’t put on the wig, I don’t open up a Word document."
