Hello, everyone.
My most sincere appologies. I’ve been on the phone with the team from authorbytes for 40 minutes, trying to get the chat to work, but it’s just not. The problem is ours, we underestimated your collective awesome, and according to them, about 500 people tried to log on at exactly 4:00 and it totally hoodwinked the server.
Nothing worked.
I’m sincerely mortified and sorry for wasting everyone’s afternoons.
I was, however, able to see a few questions come through before stuff went totally boom, and I’ll answer those in a blog post tomorrow. Also, I will plan to do another chat-type thing in the very near future (maybe on twitter or something else).
So, so sorry again,
Ally

May 31, 2010 at 1:10 amWell, I guess not all computer stuff could work on the first try. Thanks for trying! I sent in a question at about 4: 05, so I might see it answered tomorrow. I’ll be sure to be online 🙂

May 31, 2010 at 2:18 amAs least this proves how much we love you 🙂 And really, very few authors would even consider taking the time to chat with their fans like this so thanks for trying. Maybe next time!

May 31, 2010 at 4:43 pmIt’s okay Ally. We still love you! It just goes to show amazingly cool you are. Not too many authors would want to chat with their crazy teen fans. And you know what else is cool? Just by typing ally in google, your name comes up as one of the options. That’s not true for too many people!

July 17, 2010 at 6:47 amHey Ally(I hope it’s okay that I call you that)
I finished “Only The Good Spy Young” last night and I read “Heist Society” a couple days ago. I thought that both were wonderful! I was wondering if there and going to be any more books about Cammie, or if you are currently busy working a a sequel to “Heist Society” ? Thanks, and I love your books!
