January 10, 2011 at 4:36 pmJenny Lynn Barnes does a funny spies-posing-as-cheerleaders series called The Squad. It’s aimed at a tiny bit older audience than GG, but, I like it.

January 4, 2011 at 6:02 ami’m confused… why is your blog still a “spoiler free zone”? Everyone’s read the book by now and we should have a chance to discuss it and ask questions.

January 4, 2011 at 6:57 amHopefully 🙂 I’ve entered almost every one of them so far, so I hope so. I love how all of them seem to have something to do with graphics or designing (I’m such a computer geek XD) like designing a widget or tshirt. I luv luv LUV all the contests!!

I was reading an article in the newspaper, and did you know that the security for Buckingham Palace is Gallagher Security?? I laughed when I saw it 🙂

January 4, 2011 at 4:22 pmHaha, not EVERYONE has read it. For example, EVERYONE but me has seen Inception. 🙁 I so totally can’t wait to see it, but haven’t had the opportunity yet. And there’s nothing like spoilers to ruin the suspence. Plus, Ally holds chats every so often and those are totally spoiler happy. 😛

January 5, 2011 at 2:48 amHi, Ally! Sorry I’m kinda late with this, but…HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! 😀
I hope you had an awesome New Year! And also I was just wondering – just wondering – what happened to George Clooney? Unless you and him “broke up” and I missed it, maybe you could do another little teeny weeny conversation with George? Pweese?? I thought they were really funny 😛 But I totally understand if you are busy! I totally understand.
Luv ya, Ally!

January 5, 2011 at 3:50 amThank you so much for updating your “For Writers” section! I was seriously considering memorizing it so I wouldn’t have to go to the computer whenever I needed motivation to write something, and it saves time instead of trying to remember when one of your posts’ date. =) And I hope you’re having a great New Years and also hoping you have some sort of idea for GG5! =)

January 5, 2011 at 4:02 amYou. Are. My. IDOL!!!! I LOVE writing because of you. When I read your books, I am in awe. You make it seem like everything just comes to your head as you write it and you never make a mistake. I just wish I could write like you.

Samah says
January 5, 2011 at 9:13 pmI have one 🙂 The Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz. Those were the books that inspired me to write (You know, before I read the Ghallager Girls). The first book is called Stormbreaker, then Point Blank (my favorite!!), then Skeletong key, and theres loads more but I can never remember what comes after that ;D

January 6, 2011 at 12:28 amI am a big fan of your work and have been trying to write my own spy book for over a year now (before i read yours. I didn’t copy your work) and every time i try to go some where with my characters always seems so force and something they wouldn’t do. Any advice?
Spychik says
January 6, 2011 at 12:54 amOh I haven’t read it yet. I want to buy it but I’m saving up to buy it. so please don’t spoil it too much but I’m good with just a little.
Sarai says
January 6, 2011 at 1:36 amHey! My mom and I are huge fan of yours and I can’t wait till GG5! When I read the Gallagher Girls books I always feel like I’m Cammie. I started writing a book last year and I haven’t been able to stop. I always put my feelings in the book and some people say I should but others say I shouldn’t. Do you think it’s a good idea? Please write back and have a great year! Also are they ever gonna make a movie about the Gallagher Girls?
Samara Jensen says
January 6, 2011 at 6:57 pmHappy New Year, Ally! Looking forward to the next Gallagher Girls book – the third is due to be published soon in the UK (this week, I think!).
Thanks for all the writing tips – I’m just finishing an edit on a YA urban fantasy manuscript, which I plan to submit to agents, so I’ll be reading your advice carefully before going ahead.
