Robin Roberts to write memoir

"Good Morning America" anchor Robin Roberts announced on Wednesday that she will pen a book about her life -- including her recent health struggles.

In the yet-to-be-titled memoir, Roberts, 52, will tell the story of her battle against myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), her return to "GMA" and her life lessons thus far.

"I am humbled that many have an interest, and draw strength from my on-going journey," said Roberts in the publisher's announcement.

Roberts has received many awards and honors throughout her history, from organizations across the country, including a 2013 Peabody Award for "Robin's Journey" -- a series of reports that aired on ABC News, chronicling her battle with MDS and raising awareness of how to become a bone marrow donor.

Grand Central Publishing, a division of Hachette Book Group, will publish the story and accompanying audio book in April 2014.
