Kerry Washington will go on a book tour to promote her upcoming memoir, Thicker Than Water.

The actor, known for Emmy-nominated turns in the series Scandal and Little Fires Everywhere, will publish her memoir with Little, Brown Spark on Sept. 26. The publisher describes the book as a “profoundly moving and beautifully written memoir” that “reveals how she faced a series of challenges and setbacks, effectively hid childhood traumas…ultimately discovering her truest self and, with it, a deeper sense of belonging.”

Washington announced news of her book tour on a video on Twitter. “Not only did I write a book, but I’m going to do a book tour, which is nuts, and I’m going to be traveling to a bunch of different cities.…I’m going to be in conversation with you, but also with some of my closest, most amazing friends, people who have read the book, people who I love. And we’re just going to have some real talk. We’re going to talk about life and love and family and truth.”

Guests for the tour have not been announced. It kicks off Sept. 23 at Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club’s Day For Kids Festival in the Bronx, New York, before moving to the Fillmore Detroit the following day.

Other stops include Manhattan; Washington, D.C.; Chicago; Los Angeles; Atlanta; London; Manchester, England; and Miami. The general public will be able to buy tickets here on June 23.
