Um"¦yeah. So I have a blog now. I’m not sure how this happened. Except well"¦as you can see, I’ve written a book.

Don’t tell anyone!

Well, I mean, you can tell people I’ve written a book. In fact, tell a LOT of people, because all of the author proceeds go to Greenpeace"¦for real! Every person who buys my book will be helping to save a whale or preserve a polar ice cap (the book is printed on totally recycled paper)!

Which of course has always been my dream. To save the whales, I mean. And become a published writer. I’m getting two dreams come true at once!

What I meant was, don’t tell anyone about this blog because, well, this website didn’t turn out anything like I wanted it to. I actually wanted it to have these funny unicorns on it (sorry—inside joke).

But then Grandmére found out about it. And she took over. And, well"¦you can see the result for yourself.

I guess it could be worse. It could be pink or something.

So, anyway. Yeah, I wrote a book (you can read about it over on there, on the side). It’s a real book, that will be in stores in January 2009 (December 2009 in the UK). I wrote all about my struggles trying to get it published (and how embarrassed I was when I finally confessed to people I’d written it and SOME of them thought my book was, ahem, about certain people we all know) in the tenth volume of my diaries (but thank God you’ll never get to read that!).

So. That’s about it. I’ll be back periodically to update this. Be sure to visit my Myspace and I promise to friend you (unless you’re a creepy foot fetishist like Lilly’s stalker Norman of course).

And don’t forget—buy my book, help save a whale!

Love,
Mia
