[Cooper:] When Martha Stewart entered prison six days ago, she was allowed to keep her toothbrush, her earrings and a keen business sense. With word of a memoir in the works, Stewart's return to freedom may include a few tips on living without it. CNN's Mary Snow has details.
[Mary Snow, Cnn Correspondent:] It's not exactly the kind of home the domestic guru had in mind when she built her fortune, but Martha Stewart's time in the big house in Alderson, West Virginia, could be part of a book on her life. A person familiar with the situation says Stewart is interested in an autobiography at some point and there have been preliminary talks among her lawyers and publishers. The Stewart camp denies a report that she plans to write a prison memoir, but Stewart did tell Larry King she wanted to write a book shortly after she was sentenced.
[Martha Stewart:] I think I'll write a book because I think it could be helpful to other people just about just about what to choose, how to behave, how to attend an interview. There's things that there's no how-to book about this.
[Snow:] Stewart's stretch beyond how-to domestic tips could prove to be a challenge since publishing insiders say personal details equal dollars. An early reaction on the street of Stewart writing a book is getting mixed views.
[Unidentified Male:] I'm sure there will be one passage in there about how she baked cookies for everyone in prison and how everyone loved her as a result, but other than that, I don't think I'd read it cover to cover.
[Unidentified Female:] I'd like to know what she's thinking and how she's passing the time whether she's reading, whether she's dreaming up new recipes or what kind of creative processes are going through her mind.
[Snow:] The big question is how much would a book about Martha Stewart written by Martha Stewart be worth? "New York Magazine" says a prison memoir alone could fetch as much as $5 million, but industry insiders say that's way too high and Stewart's people say it's way too early to be talking money.
[Cooper:] Mary Snow, thanks very much. Next on 360 from South Park to a theater near you. The cartoon creators have a new puppet movie out. It offends just about everyone, the U.N., the White House, anyone you can possibly think, I think even Sean Penn. Don't expect it to be cute and cuddly, though. We'll talk about it with the creators of "South Park."
