Newsletter from Steve Alten about Meg.

This is from the Steve Alten Newsletter and he has written some of my favorite books, the Meg book.

For those of you who follow me on FACEBOOK, you know I owe you an announcement regarding MEG. I know many of you are anticipating a MEG MOVIE update. That may come in July. This month's MEG announcement is in regards to a MEG e-book. Sometime in July MEG will be sold as an e-book and will contain special added features, including image links and (eventually) a back stage movie pass.

But the BIG news is that I have written a MEG PREQUEL! This special e-book was designed as an inexpensive gift to my loyal readers as a way of thanking you. In essence, it is the story of what happened to Jonas seven years before he returned to the Mariana Trench in the first book. The story also sets up part of the storyline in MEG 5: Night Stalkers as several of these new characters "bleed" into book five. And yes - some of the MEG 5 contest winners are characters in the MEG prequel. (You'll have to splurge for the buck to find out).

Both MEG e-books will be available in all e-book reader formats in July. (There will be no prequel sold in hardback or paperback format as it is less than 100 pages. MEG 5 will be a full feature, debuted as a hardback.) As for MEG 5's release, that will be timed with a summer MEG movie. We're pushing for a summer 2013 date, but that is not official until production begins on a movie. And yes we believe MEG will be THE SUMMER 2013 MOVIE!

Here's the rest of your June update, featuring an important LIVING TIP.
