My new Los Angeles based series, ANGELS ON SUNSET BOULEVARD, comes out February 2007!
PAY TO GET IN. PRAY TO GET OUT.
Angels on Sunset Boulevard is about a cool girl from the Hollywood flats, a cute preppie boy from Bel-Air, a beautiful and brooding rockstar named Johnny Silver, and the mysterious disappearance of teens all over LA who are all involved in a shadowy cult.
Sexy. Dark. Illicit. It’s all there in the ANGELS’ story.
PROM STORY!!
21 PROMS: Twenty-one of your favorite teen writers share their prom stories. Mine is the real story of my Senior Prom, a guy named Patrick, a fifth of whiskey, and me… (hint: he threw up all over my prom dress, but he was so cute I didn’t even care!). Hilarity and sadness abound.
For older readers:

GIRLS WHO LIKE BOYS WHO LIKE BOYS: True Tales of Love, Lust and Friendship between Gay Men and Straight Women. An anthology I co-edited with my dear friend Tom Dolby. Contributors include Simon Doonan, Ayelet Waldman, Gigi Grazer, Cindy Chupack, and many more fabulous writers! This is a funny and heartfelt collection about gay boys and the straight gals who love them. NOTE: This is an adult book, with some sexual content that might not be appropriate for younger readers.

Will she ever fit in even though she has the wrong name? Find out in this hot new series about private school one-upmanship–from Chanel Black Satin nail polish to the right height for knee-high socks, to updated Spin-the-Vitamin-Water-Bottle scandals, you’ve never met twelve year-olds as sophisticated as THE ASHLEYS.
And that’s all she wrote, folks!
