Author Joe McGinniss Moves Next Door to Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin has a new neighbor. Infamous author Joe McGinniss has a new residence next door to Palin's lakeside home in Wasilla, Alaska. Reportedly, McGinniss will rent the place for up to five months.

McGinniss has already written an expose on Palin, and plans to write a book on the Former Alaska Governor and GOP vice presidential candidate. His book is scheduled to release in the fall of 2011 and is presently titled - "Sarah Palin's Year of Living Dangerously."

One of the challenges of being a women or man in politics in that you are constantly in the public eye. It comes with the territory. McGinniss recently issued a statement ensuring the he "will be highly respectful of his subject's privacy as he investigates her public activities." Meanwhile, with McGinniss living about 15 feet away, Palin has installed a new large fence around her home to help guarantee privacy for her family.
