'Four: A Divergent Collection' - We'll Be Waiting A Little Longer For The Stories

1459106_768583963168508_12110359_n We're going to have to wait a little longer for the 'Four Collection'. I am a little sad, but hey - it's for a good reason. Veronica took to her blog to talk about it...
Bad News: the three remaining stories from Four’s perspective that I’ve been working on, which were supposed to come out later this year/early next year, have been delayed until July 2014. They’ll be bundled together and sold as a hardcover under the title Four: A Divergent Collection, with some fun extra content, and at that time they will also be released as separate e-stories (so, if you’ve already bought the first one, “The Transfer,” you don’t have to pay again for it in a collection if you don’t want to). If you are asking, incredulously, “why, Veronica? Why must you do this to us?!" My answer is: the stories turned out much meatier and more substantial than I was originally anticipating when I started them. There’s just so much going on—Tobias’s reunion with his mother, his growing disillusionment with the faction system, and some of his early moments with Tris, to name a few. So I just really, really need more time to get them right. I know it sucks, but I am sure that this extra time will result in better work and better stories for everyone to read. Okay. Good News: -If you already pre-ordered the second story, “The Initiate,” your pre-order will not be canceled. It will just take a little longer for you to get it. -The stories are long. As in, they’re about seventy pages each, so if you add them together you get about 280 pages of Tobias’s story. Which is as long as some novels. So there’s more to read! -The price for the e-stories will not change, even though they’re longer than anticipated. -The stories will be better in July than they would have been if they had come out this winter, because I’m going to work my butt off to make them that way!

Behind the Scenes: Lily and Jamie Train for TMI COB

Watching the movie for the *coughs* fifth time, I noticed the brilliant choreography of the fight scenes. Now we get a  behind-the-scenes look at the training for these scenes. 

Behind the Scenes: The Weapons of TMI City of Bones


So fun to see these behind-the-scenes clips. Here's one the weaponry in "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones".

Teen.com's 13 YA Heartthrobs List

Guess who made teen.com's Book Boyfriends' list? Mhmm, our very own Jace.



We all know that Jacob Black has some great qualities (right, Katie? ;)), but I've never been one to fall for wolfish pursuits. And Peeta is sweet, after all, any boy who can bake has to be high up on a Mundie Moms' fave book boyfriends' list. Finnick and Four, Cedric and Percy are all adorable. Alex from Delirium and Adrian from Bloodlines are all viable choices. But, Jace and waaaaait, hold on…Jemmmmmmm!

Jem made the list, too! Of course, he did. Because for this Mundie Mom he IS the perfect boyfriend.


TMI:CoB Movie is #1 on iTunes


Guess which movie is Number One on iTunes under Action & Adventure??? Have you purchased your digital copy, yet? 

I'm love having mine on my laptop. May have to download it on my phone. Just think MMs, Clary, Jace, Simon and (hello) Magnus on-the-go! Suddenly waiting in the school parking lot just got a whole lot less boring.
