Okay, gang, back by popular demand: MORE FAQs–the general stuff edition.
DO YOU HAVE A TITLE FOR GG5 YET?
No. If you follow me on Twitter (and if you don’t, why not?) you have seen that I don’t have a title. And it’s killing me.
WHEN WILL GG5 BE RELEASED?
I think there is a pub date but it’s already changed once and I don’t have the green light to share it, I’m afraid. I will say that my books are hopefully going to be on an “every nine months” schedule from here on out, so you can do that math and get semi-close, I’m betting.
WILL ZACH BE IN GG5?
Yes. But his shirt will not…
WILL WE FIND OUT HALE’S FIRST NAME IN UNCOMMON CRIMINALS?
No comment.
WILL KAT AND HALE GET TOGETHER IN UNCOMMON CRIMINALS?
No comment.
IS GEORGE CLOONEY REALLY YOUR BOYFRIEND?
No comment.
WHEN WILL YOU TELL US WHAT GG5 WILL BE ABOUT?
Soon-ish. We’re working on back cover copy. At some point later this summer I’m thinking we’ll probably make that public.
WHEN WILL WE KNOW IF GG5 TAKES PLACE OVER THE SCHOOL YEAR OR DURING CAMMIE’S SUMMER?
As soon as you read the back cover copy.
WILL THERE BE A HEIST SOCIETY 3?
Maybe.
HOW MANY GALLAGHER GIRL BOOKS ARE YOU PLANNING?
Still six.
WILL YOU EVER DO A BOOK ABOUT BLACKTHORNE?
Never say never.
And that’s it, gang. I’ve got to get back to work.

June 2, 2011 at 11:34 pmOMG if I have to wait another nine months for GG5 I will die. I’m already counting down the days till Uncommon Criminals on http://samisbookcorner.blogspot.com/. I’m dying here.

June 3, 2011 at 12:36 amZack’s shirt won’t be on? That’s hot. Yet, at the same time, I wonder if he will have any hardcore scars. 😉
Emily says
June 3, 2011 at 12:53 amUmm…Shirtless Zach? What? did i read that right? what a change..Did George C. put you up to this? and like Meredith said, Did he leave it in gg4?
And why the Justin Bieber quote? He is so weird!
Renee1 says

June 3, 2011 at 1:16 amAlly-
First off i just want to say that i love your books. i read GG5 in like 7 hours if that. And i think you are my favorite author. In one of the GG books cammie asked her mom if her dad went to blackthorn and she said no but in GG5 cammie reads her dads diary/note book and its talking about how Cammie’s dad and Mr. Solomon were room mates. Is that a mix up or am i dreaming things?
-Rickie
P.S.
totally excited about Zach being shirt less… 🙂

June 3, 2011 at 2:44 amMr. Solomon went to Blackthorn but not Cammie’s dad but after Mr. Solomon graduated they became roommates in whatever agency they both started working for *blanking on the name* I hope this helps! 🙂

June 3, 2011 at 3:14 pmThank you so much for this! Finally, we’ll get a peek into GG5!!! 🙂 (the back cover, I mean. Not shirtless Zach. I wish!) I can’t wait!
J.J. says
June 3, 2011 at 4:40 pmNo…shirt? YOU ARE KILLING ME!!! I want the book now. You are absoloutely teasing all of us. Oh well, the shirt will be missed…NOT! Imagine…a shirtless Zach, yep it is official that book cannot come soon enough. Keep up the great work Heist Society 2 is going to be great…I also love how almost every comment is about Zach…being shirtless. I can’t get over that. There had better be a HS3, well, because I need these books to survive. Seriously, I do.
Angel of Music says

a huge fan says
June 4, 2011 at 4:19 pmEt hem. Zach and Hale are in two different books. But if i had to choose, it would be Hale. He’s all mysterious and stuff, plus he likes art!
Anonymous says
June 4, 2011 at 11:02 pmSince when has Zach not been mysterious? Team Zach!!!!!!!
a huge fan says
June 5, 2011 at 12:14 amYeah, he is kinda mysterious, but seriously, with how many boys can you say “oh yeah, I don’t know his name,” if someone asks what your boyfriend’s name was? Seriously!
Megan! says
June 5, 2011 at 12:23 amZACH ALL THE WAY BABY! except that Hale is hot too…I just LOVE spies.(;
