Fox 2000 and New Regency have partnered to option Liane Moriarty’s novel “What Alice Forgot.” Katherine Fugate, creator of the Lifetime series “Army Wives,” has been hired to write the adaptation.

Moriarty’s novel is about a woman who suffers a head injury and wakes to find that she actually might be 10 years older and forgotten a decade of her life.

Already published Down Under by Macmillan Australia, “Alice” will be released in the U.S. by Amy Einhorn/Putnam Books in late 2011.

Rodney Ferrell is overseeing for Fox 2000 and Amy Israel for New Regency. Jerry Kalajian is executive producing.

Fox 2000 has had several recent successes with female-focused content. “The Devil Wears Prada” grossed $324 million worldwide, and “27 Dresses” and “Bride Wars” combined to gross $273 million this year. The company is in production on the Ed Zwick film “Love and Other Drugs” and the Beverly Cleary adaptation “Ramona and Beezus.”

Fugate, repped by Hohman Maybank Lieb, wrote the screenplay for Warner Bros.’ ensemble romantic comedy “Valentine’s Day,” which hits theaters in February. She also wrote the features “Carolina” and “The Prince and Me.”

New Katherine Blog Post - 20 August 2009

Katherine has posted a new blog update:

Megan Fox and The Aftermath

“Olivia Wilde is so sexy she makes me want to
strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands.”
–Megan Fox

So. Megan Fox is bisexual. Have you heard? Apparently so is Lady Gaga, who explains that her hit song, Poker Face, which is lyrically about sex and gambling, is actually about fantasizing about being with a woman while having sex with a man. “She’s got me like nobody.” Rounding out the recent revelations, comes Fergie, of the Black Eyed Peas, who admits, “Put it this way, I’ve experimented, definitely, but I have never had a steady girlfriend.”

So, when I found myself seated in front of Megan Fox on a recent flight to New Orleans, I was thrilled. Hey, we have something in common, you and me. No, not a desire to commit bloodshed upon the unsuspecting wild animal, but I too have certainly had my experiences....

I just never knew there was a prize for being bisexual, or I would’ve announced it to the press much sooner because, sadly, now as a writer in my 40s, with a child, wrinkles, and a startling case of the body droop and the eye squint, I suspect I’ve probably missed the bulk of Bisexual Swag that could come my way. And hey, I forgot to become a movie star or rock star, so there’s that, too.

Nonetheless, I set out to conquer the Fox, who is, by all accounts, more than half my age. I had no intention of sexing up Megan, but I had every intention to get her to shut the hell up and hang up her cell phone. We were long past the “please turn off your electronic devices” portion of our flight, but Megan felt it was important that she loudly continue her conversation with her agent/manager, despite whatever government regulations are in place.

New Katherine Blog Post - 28 April 2009

Katherine has posted a new blog update:

I stared at the nude photograph on the wall, remembering that two nights before I had stood nude in a window frame inside a college dorm and wondered, “Is that all there is?” In the span of a week, I had slept with my teacher, my best friend, and my boyfriend....

AUSXIP Charity Auction Update

Hi folks,

I have to say I am beyond stoked about this figure - I'm thrilled to tiny little bits that in this economic tough time, people have been so generous with their time, their money and their willingness to give for the greater good.

I've just received the final figure from Starship together with the ROC Outreach Fund and Adrienne's charity.

The figure comes to $18,165.24

Last year we raised $16,173.86 which is an increase of $1992!

I want to take the time to thank my two sidekicks - Roger and Christa for their hard work in shipping everything out and the support they have given me throughout the auction. I'm so proud of them and also proud of this fandom. Thank you also goes to those who came up to me at the last convention or emailed and gave me items or offered their help and in particular Julie Eaton, Kim Manrique, Mesh & Bev, KG MacGregor, Val Foster, Barbara Bruno, Marilyn Edwards, Tiger and Tracy. Hopefully I haven't forgotten anyone. You guys rock.

I also want to take the time to thank our Xena alumni who took the time to make this auction even more special: Lucy Lawless, Renee O'Connor, Adrienne Wilkinson, Katherine Fugate, Steven Sears, Melissa Good and Simone Lahbib (who isn't a Xena alumni but took the time to help out and has been adopted as one).

Thank you everyone!
