squeetus: princess academy: behind the scenes


	Princess tips I received a call from the UK branch of my book publisher, asking me to come to the UK to promote *princess academy. Very cool. Part of the conversation went something like this: UK publicist: "We thought we might do a princess party and send out the invitations as though inviting the guests to attend the princess academy. But would you feel comfortable wearing a tiara to the party?" Me: "Would I feel comfortable wearing a tiara to the party? When wouldn't* I feel comfortable wearing a tiara?" She also wondered if I could write some tips on becoming a princess, based on the story in the book. They made postcards with these tips on them, which some of you may have seen: How to Be a Princess Learn to walk with a boot on your head Put on your favorite dress Read books after everyone else has gone to bed Memorize all the rules Break the rules Save your friends from uncertain danger And, most importantly, just be a girl Return to *princess academy* main page
