Mary mentioned awhile back that she was writing a new book, and for the heck of it just now, I looked to see if it was on Amazon yet. It is! You can pre-order here! I haven't done it yet, but I'm awfully tempted, hehe! It comes out right before my bday, so I might just let someone buy it for me.
I had thought maybe Fox would release S5 around the time the book comes out (to take advantage of all the press Mary will already be doing), but that doesn't seem likely. They prob. would've announced it by now if they were going to do it then. But who knows? - Kristen |

Nice spot, Kristen.
I'll definitely buy the book, and I hope MTM comes to Boston on her book tour! |

Awesome!! I might pre-order it now, since I've got the money...
I really like the picture on the cover. It's a good one!

I like the pic too. If she doesn't come to Boston, I might have to travel down to New York, as it may be my only chance to meet her.
I've never been to a book signing, but I assume it's easier to get a pleasant 20-30 seconds there than just a chance meeting out in public, because after all, you're buying the celebrity's book. Whereas, out and about town, the celeb might not be in the mood (and oftentimes quite understandably). I'd probably make sure to say two things: "It's an honor to meet you,'' and "Thanks for all the great entertainment on Saturday nights on my favorite show of all time, TMTMS, and also on TDVDS. You were wonderful." I assume it'd be pushing it to get a handshake, but I don't know the rules. If anybody sees a book-signing itinerary, please post! |

Great news! I read that Mary was releasing this book in Publishers Weekly probably two years ago. I know she mentioned it when she was on Oprah so I'm glad to see this finally coming out, and right around my birthday, too!!!

You're welcome, Monika! Glad I was able to help.
Hey, PGood, in case I can't get to a signing (assuming there even ARE any!), could you add one more thing on to what you're going to say to Mary? Tell her, "Kristen says hi!" hehe. That way I'd at least know she knew I existed. It wouldn't be the same as meeting her, but I could live vicariously through your story. LOL - Kristen |

i could mention your name, sure kristen! i actually feel like i've kinda already said hello to MTM with my autograph request, as a bunch of people on this site probably have done. but there's something about a face to face that would be way cool btw, there's only about two weeks left in january, and that leaves only one month before march 1, which was the date i was gonna start asking around about TMTMS Season 5...i can't believe it's been so long and we haven't heard anything! |

I thought you were going to wait till Feb, not March. I can't believe they've taken this long, either! Esp. after they did the hard part and decided to release it. I don't know what the hold up could be.
