London, Dec 29 (IANS) Hollywood actor Hugh Grant is planning to launch a career as an author after years of harbouring his love for writing.
The “Notting Hill” star admits he has long planned to put pen to paper to fulfil his literary dreams, but he’s been holding off until he is more financially stable, reported ok.co.uk.

“I have always promised myself: ‘When you have made some nice films and earned some money, you are going to finally write your novel,’” he said.

Grant admits he started writing his first book several years ago, but he’s not found the time to complete the story because he’s always tempted away from his computer by new movie projects.

“I don’t know if it is laziness or some kind of fear of failure. (I think) shouldn’t I rather make a film, earn money and work with beautiful women?” he added.
