Mark your calendars!
Hi, everybody!
I’m so, so excited to officially share that Heist Society 3 will be in stores in the US & Canada on February 5, 2013!
FEBRUARY 5!
The title and cover are ready but currently under lock and key. Hopefully, we will be unveiling those VERY shortly (and I promise they are worth the wait).
When will the book be available in other countries? Well, that depends on the country. All publishing is local, so the decision when to publish the book in…Indonesia (for example) will be made by the...

Big blog of random
Hello, everyone!
So how are your summers so far? Mine is much like my spring. A whole lot of working on Heist 3, but there are a few other things. Like…
Where have all the good TV shows gone? Way back when I wrote my very first book (which has never been published and likely never will be because it is a FIRST book and those typically aren’t very good) during the summer. I’m convinced that if there had been good TV shows I never would have done it. And then I never would have written any books....

Mission #9
Hi Gallagher Girls,
I have a new mission for you. The answer is super romantic (in honor of Valentine's Day :-) ). This mission is going to be a combination of missions. The words are both scrambled and in crypotogram form. So first you must get the letters then you have to unscramble them. Have fun and remember the new rules...no giving the answer away within 24 hours. Help is permitted though.

Molly Monday
Hi Everyone,
Happy Monday!!!
I want to thank everybody who has emailed me their Valentines for Zach and Hale! I am really enjoying them and I can not wait to post some of them online for everyone to see. In the meantime I made a Gallagher Girls Valentine for you to print off or email to a friend!

Keep sending in your Valentines and don't worry about being too creative...because in my mind there is no such thing! I am sure Zach and Hale would feel the same way ;-)
Have a good week everyone!

Molly Monday
Hey Girls!
Happy Monday :-)
So...I have been thinking and thinking and THINKING way too hard about something fun to give you this Molly Monday. The second I stopped thinking it came to me (which is always the case).
I want you all to make Valentine's for Zach or Hale!!! There are not a lot of rules...just nothing inappropriate (language, etc.). You can write a poem on them or a fun quote, draw a picture, or just write a love note. It does not matter if they are made on the computer or...

New Mission Rules...Effective Immediately
Hi Girls,
You are all such awesome spies. You solved this last puzzle in the blink of an eye. The answer is " The only question that remained was why I'd have to leave".
Because you are all such amazing decoders, there is a new rule that is effective immediately for all missions. From now on there is going to be a 24 hour time frame in which we do not approve any comments that reveal the answer. These missions are meant to be for everyone to partake in. You are more than welcome to help each...

Mission #8
Hi Girls,
Mission #8 is a date shift cipher. I am not going to give you any information on how to solve this. I want you to research it yourselves...because all good spies are excellent at research ;-)
The date is February 19th 1947

Once you solve mission #10 I will be rewarding you with a larger excerpt from GG5.
After mission #10 the missions are going to become more complex and they may even become stacked so that you have to go ...
