Meg Cabot, author of the teen novel The Princess Diaries, reveals an early love for Jane:
As a teen, the tall, effusive 39-year-old native of Bloomington, Ind., was a self-described geek who made frequent pilgrimages to the local library in pursuit of air conditioning and emerged with a career founded on her favorite summertime authors: Jane Austen, Judy Blume and Barbara Cartland.
In an odd little quirk, Anne Hathaway, who starred in Disney’s movie version of The Princess Diaries, is of course slated to play Miss Austen in BECOMING JANE.
