2009(retro)Tweeting I've
brought (retro)blog back via Twitter! Now you can enjoy mortifying and
melodramatic excerpts from my adolescent journals 140 characters at a
time:
6/18/85 NOBODY (boys)
LIKES ME. I think I'll become a nun. Then they only men you hang out
with are priests and they CAN'T like you.
6/24/84:
I wish I had a boyfriend.(Mom says I'm too young to like boys already!)
It's not fair that some girls have at least 89 boyfriends.
6/14/87
I just heard the lamest song.If a guy gyrated his pelvis, called ME
pussycat and asked ME what's new, I'd knee him in the groin. Ew.

My Next Novel When
I'm not (retro)Tweeting, I'll be spending the rest of 2009 working on
my next novel. Here's the official announcement via HarperCollins: Alessandra
Balzer at Balzer & Bray/HarperCollins Children’s Books acquired
World English rights to New York Times bestselling author Megan
McCafferty’s new novel in a two-book deal from Heather Schroder at ICM.
BUMPED is a sharply funny and provocative dystopian novel set in a
world where only teens are able to have babies, and are contracted by
adults to carry them to term.
That's already more about this book than I want to say! (For now.)
Perfect Publication Thanks to everyone who came to my events for PERFECT FIFTHS and celebrated the silliness of Barry-oke:
Weekend In New England (B&N Brick, NJ)
A
special thank you to all the readers who assured me that I provided a
satisfying and surprising conclusion to the Jessica Darling series. I'm
sad to say goodbye to these characters but even more excited to welcome
new ones into my life. I hope you are too.
As always, thanks for reading.
Megan
