Her publisher's advance is said to top what Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Lena Dunham and Mindy Kaling each got for their tomes.

Amy Schumer has landed an envy-inducing deal to publish her new memoir The Girl With The Lower Back Tattoo, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Fresh from her big win at the Emmys, the 34-year-old comedienne has reportedly scored an advance in the $8 to $10 million range.

Smiling all the way... to the bank? Amy Schumer - pictured on Sunday after her Emmy win - is said to have signed a lucrative deal to publish her memoir The Girl With The Lower Back Tattoo

Her book is described as a collection of funny essays full of observations from family and childhood, and she doesn't shy away from her feminist view point either, The Hollywood Reporter revealed.

Schumer's memoir was apparently considered such a hot property that editors had to read the proposal in the secrecy of her agent's office.

In all, eight publishers reportedly made a bid on the project and the winner is Simon & Schuster imprint Gallery Books.

Butt out: The comedienne didn't take kindly to a text sent her by stand-up comic Colin Quinn and posted it and her snappy response on her Instagram page on Wednesday

The star of Inside Amy Schumer will probably laugh all the way to the bank as her advance is a sign of the book's expected sales.

Tina Fey's book Bossypants has sold more than two million copies so far, and books in the same vein by Amy Poehler, Lena Dunham and Mindy Kaling were all bestsellers.

Amy, however, didn't take too kindly to a fellow comedian who texted her after news leaked out on Wednesday.

Bestsellers: Tina Fey and Mindy Kaling, pictured on September 16, have written books along the same vein that have become bestsellers

The way it goes: Lena Dunham, pictured on September 21, wrote Not That Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You What She's 'Learned' that was published last year

'Heard about the book deal. Trust me. Put that money in a bank!!!' wrote Colin Quinn.

Amy retorted: 'You have no information and I want far out of your phone.'

The New York native scored a massive win when her show Inside Amy Schumer garnered the Emmy for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series on Sunday.

Amy was jubilant on stage at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles as she clutched her golden trophy and thanked everyone who helped her along the way.

'We care so much about this show... This show fights for what we believe in... Thanks everybody who has helped me... the girl who gave me this smoky eye, I really love it,' she quipped, referring to her make-up artist.

Amy has many rooting for her including Anne Hathaway and Bette Midler who have named Schumer as their girl crush, People reported.
