Ousted FBI Director James Comey will pen a book on the lessons he learned about decisionmaking and leadership during his time in government, according to The Associated Press.

The news service reported that Comey's book, which will be published by Flatiron Books, is set to be released next spring.

The publishing company told the AP that the former FBI director will share private anecdotes from his career and use "examples from some of the highest-stakes situations in the past two decades of American government.”

He was fired roughly seven months later by President Trump, who claimed Comey had mishandled that.

Comey delivered blockbuster testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee in June, when he confirmed reports Trump asked him to “let go” of the federal probe into former national security adviser Michael Flynn, as well as “lift the cloud” of the investigation into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Trump suggested after Comey’s firing there could be tapes of their conversations.

Comey famously said “Lordy, I hope there are tapes” during his testimony.

Trump later said there were no tapes.
