In honor of the new year and all our new projects, we decided it was time to give our website a facelift. (She was starting to show her age a bit, I’m afraid.) We think this design is a bit cleaner, and will keep you more up-to-date on what we’ve been working on.

So, come on in, take a look around, and make yourself at home. We look forward to sharing our latest multi-platform book projects with you when they’re not such a secret!

—The FlirtyGirls

First, hot off the presses (or the iMac, more likely), is the trailer for Fashionista.

Fashionista: A Bradford Novel book trailer from FlirtyGirl Productions on Vimeo.

Let us know what you think of it, and please feel free to repost it.

Second, fan-favorite character Paige is going to be sharing her deepest, darkest secrets from her second stint at Zephyr all this month at her blog, The Detox Diaries, in what we like to call Bradford blogisodes.

She’ll be opening up the privacy settings on the posts she wrote while she was involuntarily shipped off to the island rehab retreat so you can take a peak. Her posts will bridge the gap between GoldenGirl and Fashionista and let you know EXACTLY how she feels about Regan weaseling her way into Paige’s inner circle and what Spencer did to her at the end of book #1, among other things. So, if you want the inside scoop, be sure to add her blog to your RSS reader, or check her blog during the week for updates.

Finally, with help from the YA blogger who runs Alley of Books, we’re planning a Fashionista Twitter Party with author Micol Ostow for later this month, which will include an online trivia hunt, giveaways, and possible guest appearances from the Bradford girls themselves. (Hmm… wonder how well they’re getting along these days.)

So, enjoy all the great stuff we have for you today, and keep checking back for the latest updates!

Today is a very special day—the anniversary of the birth of Bradford’s talented author, Micol Ostow. So let’s all wish her the most fantabulous of birthdays!

(Meanwhile, she’s toiling away on the third Bradford manuscript, so cheer her on!)

I have it on good authority that several Bradfordians actually sent her e-mails to wish her well. How meta!

Micol, here’s hoping you get to eat lots of Smooch sweets and drink a Saketini to celebrate you special day!

Happy Birthday!
