Olympian Michael Phelps will be spending some rare time on dry land to write an all-new book about his life.

The Associated Press reports that besides telling the story behind his record-breaking eight gold medal wins, the star swimmer will also get personal as he reveals what it was like to be raised by a single mother as well as living with an attention-deficit disorder.

The book, called Built to Succeed, is due out this December.
