Grimes to Write Debut Novel Filled with Fake Facts

According to her Instagram, Grimes is officially writing a novel. The pop star announced last night that she's already started the process, but her editor HANA has advised the "first chapter needs more showing and less telling."

In classic Grimes fashion, a whole alternate world is allegedly being created in the pages of her forthcoming book. "Too bad the people don't want a novel comprised entirely of fake facts about a fake universe," she said. "Re-read some good intros to double check and I guess it's best to start with a plot."

We're imagining a fashion thriller, where everyone has five eyes and can turn into owls whenever they so choose. But we're not getting too excited just yet. "This is gonna be a dang endurance test if there ever was one," she concludes, "and don't expect anything good for like 20-25 years."

Take a look at Grimes' post, below.
