From releasing her 100th book to starring in a hit Netflix documentary, Martha has had a busy year. But, in true Martha fashion, she has no plans of slowing down soon. During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Martha shared that she is writing an autobiography—and it will be even more revealing than the RJ Cutler-directed documentary.

While the film, titled Martha, gave viewers a closer look at our founder's career and personal life, there's still a lot to tell. "There's a lot more to my life. I've lived a long time" Martha told Fallon.

The talk show host agreed that, while he loved the documentary, it left him wanting to know more. "It's fascinating, it's a different side to you," Fallon said. "But I feel like I want even more. That's the thing about Martha Stewart—you have a mystique. I don't know if I'll ever understand Martha Stewart."

Luckily for Fallon, more insight into Martha's life is on the horizon. During the segment, Martha shared that the autobiography she's working on will offer a much closer look at her story. "That'll be even more revealing. Watch out," she teased.

In October, during an episode of the Today Show, Martha shared that Penguin Random House will publish the autobiography in two years. It will be filled with many more personal stories and all of the "fabulous things" she's gotten to do throughout her life. "Nothing has told the story yet. This will tell it," she said.

While there is still some time left before we can get our hands on Martha's autobiography, her 100th book, Martha: The Cookbook, was released on November 12. "It was fun to choose 100 of my favorite recipes," she told Fallon, adding that the book also features photos from her personal archives. Alongside the recipes, Martha shares invaluable lessons she's learned throughout her life and in the kitchen.
