Patrick Swayze to write book with wife

This just in from the Associated Press:

A representative for Patrick Swayze says the cancer-stricken actor plans to write a memoir and his wife, Lisa, will collaborate with him on the book.

Publicist Jayme Phillips says plans for the book are "extremely premature."

Says Phillips: "There's no publisher. There's no dates. There's no anything else."

Swayze, who has battled pancreatic cancer for the last year, spent a week in the hospital earlier this month after contracting pneumonia.

The 56-year-old actor stars in the new A&E drama "The Beast."
