Jinx! You owe me a Coke.
Get ready! Jinx is coming to your TV screen. Karen Glass, one of the producers behind The Princess Diaries and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (and sister to This American Life’s Ira Glass) has optioned Jinx for a TV movie for ABC Family. No word on casting yet, but the script is underway, so I’ll […]
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 […]
Thank you, and I Prefer Cream Puffs to Vampires
Thanks! No, really…thanks to all of you, JINX debuted at Number Four on The New York Times Children’s Chapter Bestseller List. That is freaking incredible, you guys. You rule. So thank you. And to celebrate, I’m going to give away a bunch of free copies (not just of JINX..but one advanced reader copy of PRINCESS […]
G’Day, Mate!
Greetings from Australia, where my new book, JINX, is also on sale now! (Well, I am not actually in Australia at the moment…but my book is.) You didn’t know JINX was going on sale down under so soon? Well, it sort of slipped my mind, too. But here’s the Aussie cover to prove it! Mmmm, […]
Meg Cabot Day
Hey! Are you having a good Meg Cabot Day? Thanks to reader Karina for reminding me that today is Meg Cabot Day, as declared in July 2004 by the Mayor of Bloomington, Indiana (it’s also JK Rowling’s and Harry Potter’s birthdays, ironically). Here are some facts about my book JINX, which was also born on […]
Set Aboot Ye
Wow, a lot of people wrote after my last blog entry. I’m glad to know I’m not the only person around (and yes, the Key West cops did catch the rapist here) who feels the way I do! Just to let you know, I do watch the news and read the paper. I am not […]
Show and Tell
Lots of fun stuff to show and tell you all! So we’d better get started…. First of all, my new crush Al Gore hasn’t e’d me. I totally understand why he wouldn’t since we’re both married to other people and all. But you would think he’d have written to say SOMETHING, even if it was […]
Pants On Fire Tour Days 2 and 3
Wow, Texas was a lot of fun! People in Texas are SUPER nice. Almost Minnesota nice (but let’s face it…no one–except Canadians–are Minnesota nice). I had a blast on Good Morning Texas. And what can I say about the signing at the William Scott Theater in Fort Worth? All 500 or so of you who […]
Books (Mine!) ‘n Art (Yours!)
I hope you’ve all seen the beautiful new flash images at the top of Megcabot.com, letting everyone know about (most of) my Spring/Summer releases! Big thanks to Janey and her hard-working team…. And I’m sure you’ve noticed by now that the anthology I’ve got a novella appearing in along with Michele Jaffe, Kim Harrison, Stephanie […]
Link ‘n Cover
You read that right: time for some links…and a cover! First off, some links. I, Meg Cabot, comb the Internet looking for links for YOUR amusement so you can spend your free time doing what right minded people like you SHOULD be doing—reading banned books–instead of wasting your time looking at bad links. So, without […]
True Conversation
I had quite a busy weekend—my first ever dinner at a yacht club on Friday night (and I was the only one NOT in Lilly Pulitzer…I wore my ABS halter dress. Oh, and Lilly Pulitzer flip flops. But still) and my first ever Key West pool party on Saturday (yeah, I wore a Lilly sundress […]
