Today Show Time Change/Photoshoot

So they changed the time I’m going to be on the Today Show Monday morning to 10:33AM. I’m just letting you know. If you do watch it, I strongly suggest you don’t watch it in HD, because I just noticed my Jergens Tanning Moisturizer with Firming Action isn’t working, and I’ll be wearing something sleeveless. […]

Film Rights/Today Show/Readergirlz

Wow, things are exploding here in Meg Cabot world. First off, yes, my dark auburn Clairol Nice ‘n Easy Touch Up roots matched. Thanks for asking. That little brush it comes with is useless, though. You’re much better off just getting down and dirty (like Nigella Lawson does with food. The new season of her […]

Beauty Blog

Greetings, gentle readers. There’ve been many goings on since I last blogged, none the least of which is that, as I write, I am waiting for my Clairol Nice ‘n Easy Root Touch Up to soak in. This is what happens when your hairstylist goes on vacation for the month of September. You are left […]

It’s Always Funny Till There Are No More Librarians

Wow, you guys are awesome detectives, you completely solved the mystery I mentioned in my last blog! The answers (more or less—some of these may not be completely right, if not, I apologize), for those who are interested, are posted at the end of this entry. Again, you guys went above and beyond and I […]

Mystery Mail

At least once a week, sometimes more, I receive a package of books which have been written by me and translated into foreign languages. I have accumulated quite a few of these over the years, as this photo will attest: Often when I get foreign copies of my books in the mail, they will have […]

Weekend Wake Up Call

For those of you who’ve been asking, here are back cover blurbs to accompany the covers you’ve seen posted here on the homepage of my Fall 2007 releases, Big Boned and Princess Diaries 9, Princess Mia. Actual webpages for these books are coming soon! Meanwhile…Kathy Griffin has been banned! As a fellow (fake) red-head and […]

Back/Birds/Brazil

I’m back in Florida (regular readers of this blog will be aware that I spent the past few weeks in my husband’s scary country lair), and I’m paying the price for all those cupcakes I ordered and sent to myself, since all of my shorts appear to be kinda tight. Many thanks to those of […]

9/11/01

I updated this and am posting it again due to popular reader demand (and also because there are new readers who might have missed it the first time, and also because, well, it’s still true): I don’t know where you were today six years ago, but I can tell you where I was: in my […]

Mail Bag

It’s been a while since we dipped into the old mail bag to see what some of you readers had to say, so let’s do that now, shall we? Letter #1: Dear Meg, Madeline L’Engle, celebrated author of A Wrinkle in Time and many other favorite novels, died on September 6! Just letting you know, […]

Books, Blogs, and Back to School

Here’s a quick look at what’s going on in the world of books and blogs (at least, that I’ve noticed): According to my UK site, I have two new books coming out today in the United Kingdom (well, one new one, and one newly released one): the UK version of JINX: And the Princess Diaries […]

Greetings from the Lair

I am still trapped in He Who Shall Not Be Named In This Blog’s lair. Unlike other heroines who have been brought to the lairs of superheroes–such as, say, Katie Holmes in the excellent (except for Katie Holmes’s character) movie Batman Begins–I have not been knocked unconscious. Except this would have been awesome because, as […]
