A conversation with Jennifer Lynn Barnes

April 10, 2008 by Ally Carter Leave a Comment

So my good friend (and fellow YA author) Jennifer Lynn Barnes called the other day.

It went something like this.

Me: Hello?

JLB: Hey, it’s Jen.

Me: Hey, Jen! How’s Yale?

(Have I mentioned lately that Jen is really, really smart?)

JLB: It’s good. I was just calling because I can’t believe how many of your blog readers actually believe you’re dating George Clooney!

Me: Um…am I to take it from your tone that YOU don’t think I could be dating George Clooney?

JLB: No, I don’t think you could be dating George Clooney AND NOT TELL ME ABOUT IT!

(Note to self: this is why Jen is a good friend.)

Me: Well, George and I could be trying to keep our love a secret, you know. He IS a public figure and a very private man.

JLB: Your secret love is why you blogged about it?

Me: (choosing to ignore this perfectly valid argument) Besides, if I were really dating George Clooney, do you really think I’d introduce him to my younger, skinnier, hotter friends?

JLB: Of course you would! Otherwise how would I meet all of HIS hot friends?

(Have I mentioned yet that Jen is very, very smart?)

Me: Why do you need me for access to hot friends? Doesn’t your roommate know a guy on the FBI soccer team? Is there a more potentially hot group of men in the world than the FBI SOCCER TEAM?

Jen: I’ve been thinking about that. I wonder…

Me: Who does the FBI soccer team play?

Jen: Yeah.

Me: Because if it’s the CIA soccer team…

Jen: Then…yeah…hot.

Me: But if it’s like the team from some accounting firm or something…

Jen: So see…THIS is why you have to introduce me to Clooney!

Me: If I’m dating him.

Jen: Yeah.

Me: I think you’d better stick to the soccer team.
