Current Projects:
What It Is

Book Number 3!

Big news, people! We just sold my 3rd book to a brand new publisher! And in case you missed it on my home page, here's the scoop:


My new book is called Joint Custody and it will be published by Bantam Dell/Random House!!
 

Here's how it's described...


JOINT CUSTODY by Caprice Crane: a smart, funny novel about a woman who's extremely close to her husband's family...so when he unexpectedly files for divorce she files a counter-suit for joint custody of her in-laws.

 

Passing The Time...

I recently directed a short film called, "Passing The Time," starring Abigail Spencer and Reid Scott--possibly two of the most adorable people you will ever have the pleasure of watching on-screen.  Seriously. The film can be seen on it's own website or on my MySpace!

 

Disney has optioned the film rights to my second novel, Forget About It, (in stores now!) and it's headed for the big screen... check back for details soon!

 

Courting Mr. Cort...  I just finished writing a comedy screenplay called "Shorty" for Robert Cort Productions, who is under contract at Paramount Pictures. Robert Cort has produced 52 films, including Outrageous Fortune, Three Men and a Baby, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, Cocktail, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, Runaway Bride, and the award-winning Mr. Holland's OpusIn 2001, Save the Last Dance became the 10th of his productions to gross more than $100 million in worldwide box office. The producers are currently approaching talent. Fingers crossed!!

 

It's A Wonderful Lie: 26 Truths About Life In Your 20s…
I also contributed a non-fiction essay to this ultra-hip anthology, edited by Emily Franklin, released January 2007 by Hachette Books. She's in the company of Anna Maxted, Melissa Senate, Cara Lockwood and a slew of other fantastic writers. Click here to check it out on amazon!

 

If Only It Would Lead To Free Clothes...
Iwas tapped by Neiman Marcus to do a profile on Marchesa designers Georgina Chapman (Harvey Weinstein's girlfriend) and Keren Craig which appeared in their fabulous holiday issue of "The Book."

 

Here we are now, entertain us... 

 

In Stupid & Contagious, out NOW from Warner books (now Grand Central Publishing), the lives, jobs, and dreams of two neighbors become haplessly intertwined on a cross-country journey to find meaning, romance, the next hot band, and a new way to order Starbucks coffee.
