I'm soooo pumped! I hope it's something like a movie announcement!

Hoooshitz 45 minutes left!!

Tell me I'm not the only one thats gonna watch it on blogtv

POOPERS!! it didn't work.

Okay, apparently someone was tweeting about it in the park. and Cassie still hasn't posted the full coverage of the event, so here's a copy of the message from livejournal:

NEWS: City of Fallen Angels. March 2011. New TMI BOOK! Yes. City of Fallen Angels is Simon's book.

NEWS: All three TMI books will be adapted into graphic novels by Third World Studios. No release date yet.

:cheer: NEWS: TMI MOVIE TRILOGY - Cassie knows they have a screenwriter and funding, but no casting yet. Very early stages. :cheer:

NEWS: Magnus Bane: all over the Clockwork series. He's "a little less experienced and a bit of a screw up." Magnus is dating a girl in Infernal Devices. Ancestors of TMI characters are in TID.

NEWS: Simon's Book - Cassie loves Simon lovers. Right now it is just one book, not a series. Simon is having trouble adjusting and having two girlfriends (so he didn't choose one!). He leaves town. Finds bad things.

Quote:
Alec went to Europe with Magnus in Simon's Book! They send photos back. "Glad you're not here!"

Quote:
Jace and Clary are in Simon's book. Cassie is talking about Magnus v. Dumbledore. She thinks Dumbledore would win.

Quote:
Does Cassie approve of fanfiction? Yes. She doesn't read fanfics about her books. But she's read sone really WEIRD fanfiction. Cassie's first experience with reading fanfiction was about the X-files.

Quote:
What's the first scene Cassie wrote in COB? She doesn't remember. She rewrote the beginning several times. Small passage about marks.

Quote:
Church is based on Holly's scary cat. Chairman Meow is Cassie's cat, Linus. Yes, someone asked about the cats. ^.^

Quote:
Does Jace find religion? Cassie doesn't know. Valentine had a strange view of God, so Jace was "somewhat turned off by that."

Quote:
If she could add or change anything in the books, would she? She'd bring in characters sooner to know them better. More characters of color.

Quote:
Does Cassie play piano? No. Her fiancé plays piano. She asked him for an annoying and long piece, which is what Jace plays.

Quote:
Books that aren't connected to TMI? Lots of ideas, "modern, sort of gothic with magical realism," but she has no time.

Quote:
Cassie wants to write an updated Pride and Prejudice with a friend. Cassie also doesn't like unicorns, like John Green.

Quote:
Will the Mark of Cain play a larger role? Yes. No one can hurt him. "Swing an axe at him and it'll come back and chop off your head."

Quote:
Why were Jace and Clary siblings? "I only like really messed up romances. If there isn't something weird going on, it's not interesting."

Quote:
"If you ever wanted a list of 150 books about sibling incest, you can have it from me." - Cassie Clare

Quote:
You will learn a lot about Magnus in TID. If Alec brought Magnus home to dinner, Isabelle and Jace would be fine, parents might be awkward.

Quote:
Someone just said they got into the books because they love Adam Lambert and were told there was a Glambert-like character.

Quote:
Clary is in Shadowhurter training but is really not good at it.

Quote:
Simon is "bummed" about being an "underweight emo kid" forever, but he has other things to worry about.

Quote:
Has Cassie ever considered a Jace Book? Maybe if she had a story that centered on him like Simon. It would have to be specific.

Quote:
How much say will Cassie have in the movie? Not much. But these guys did LotR, so she trusts them.

Quote:
Valentine's and Jocelyn's story is a novella which will be part of a prize drawing today. About how and why Jocelyn married Valentine.

Quote:
Why did she kill Max? To show how evil Sebastian was. And that battle is not good.

Quote:
Luke and Jocelyn are getting married in Simon's Book. It will be a very small wedding. And Jocelyn doesn't want Clary to be a Shadowhunter.

Quote:
Sebastian's body was never found, but he's not the villain in Simon's Book. He's also not going to come back as a cab driver.

*brain overload* dayuummm new book, graphic novels, novellas and a shitload of other things. HECK YES!!!

ummmm.... news overload much???

Holy shit. I feel like Cassie should have told us to sit down before hearing this. I'm feeling odly weak-kneed and light headed. But maybe thats just from lack of sleep.

Urg. Simon is one of my least favourite characters. But at the same time.... A fourth book. I can't find anything to complain about. I just hope that it's not just Simon on his own. Because that would fail and I would be upset. I love TMI because I love all the characters and a book solely about just one character would just ruin it don't you think? I mean sure it can focus on Simon and his problems I just hope that it's not like Ronan's tale from the Eragon books because that was effing boring. I was so sick of stupid boring Ronan I just wanted him to die.

So hopefully...... when Cassie says "Simon's book" she means "Simon and company Book"

Oh, and in case everybody hasn't guessed it yet, I have an intense dislike/fear for new characters. I say this because OBVIOUSLY the book couldn't be just Simon and mosters. IF he goes off on his own he's gonna have to meet some new allies and friends and thats what I'm disliking/fearing. I don't want to be introduced to a bunch of new people [this was one of the reasons I wasn't happy about Sabastien before I read Glass. Because he was a new character in the middle of the series and I have an intense disliking/fear of new characters but then I got to know him and he just felt like part of the story] so that's pretty much the reason I don't want him to be completely on his own. I LIKE the characters that are already established and I don't want a ton more of new ones. [because when new ones come, old ones are shoved aside]

And HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT THE MI MOVIE TRILOGY!!!!!!!!!! DDDD:
OMG. It's going to be a movie. OH MY GOD. Jace is going to actually get a face. [Like Rob became the face of Ed i mean]

Oh but now I'm scared. I won't lie, I don't feel like there's anybody with the talent to truly portray Jace. And actually now that I think about it there's DEFFINITELY nobody who could portray Sebastien.

lol, relax girl xD I know its alot but its a wonderful alotness. And who knows, maybe juuust maybe, the new simon book will make you like him just a tiny tad more. And yes the others will be in it. apparently magnus and alec are in europe or something like that, and clary is in shadowhunter training.

I can't wait for the prospect of a movie. It'll be kick ass I'm sure!

Heck yes, If only I had full control over the casting :/.

And look, Cassie rly loves Simon xD:
