Former Vice President Dan Quayle has sold his memoirs for at least $1 million, according to a published report.

The Washington Post cited unidentified sources in Tuesday's editions as saying a seven-figure deal was struck with Harper Collins and that the book will begin with Quayle's selection as George Bush's running mate in 1988 and end with last November's election.The Post said that in addition to mainstream bookstores, the publisher intends to sell the book through its religious subsidiary in Christian-oriented markets - much as it did the highly successful memoirs of Oliver North.

The paper said the book probably will be published in the fall of 1994 and that the proposal was shown to only three publishers.
