Author Notes

Meg Cabot was born in Bloomington, Indiana on February 1, 1967. She recieved a fine arts degree from Indiana University, Meg moved to New York City, intent upon pursuing a career in freelance illustration. Illustrating, however, soon got in the way of Meg's true love, writing, and so she abandoned it and got a job as the assistant manager of an undergraduate dormitory at New York University, and writing on the weekends.

Meg wrote both The Princess Diaries and The Mediator: Shadowland (under the name Jenny Carroll), the first books in two series for young adults which happen to be about, among other things, teenage girls dealing with unsettling family issues. Her latest book is entitled, Insatiable.

Meg now writes full time, and lives in Key West, Florida with her husband.

Excerpts

Holiday Princess: A Princess Diaries Book Introduction A Note from Her Royal Highness Princess Mia The holidays aren't just any other days . . . well, duh, since they're called holidays. But you get what I mean. They come laden with all this . . . stuff. Like, traditions. And while some people, like my mom, believe traditions are for breaking, some other people, like Grandmère, believe traditions are the backbone of family and society and stuff. I don't know who's right and who's wrong. Maybe they both are. All I know is, none of this has anything to do with presents. Which is a bummer, if you ask me.
