Pictures!
Well, many, many thanks to all of you who were so incredibly supportive during all the computer cord drama. I'm very glad to have that behind me.
Where it was: in the pocket of a laptop bag that I haven't carried in several months.
So you know what this means? I can now officially share pictures of my new house!!!!
Of course, I haven't moved into the new house yet since the old owners are going to rent from me for a few weeks, so the furniture in these pictures isn't MY furniture.
My furniture is probably a lot less cool.
But maybe I'll get some furniture...eventually.
In any case, here it is! Enjoy!
Ally
Let's start our tour in the kitchen. I love the counter tops but really want new cabinets (since these look nice on the outside but aren't really all that up-to-date on the inside.)

Here's the view from my dining room into the kitchen and living room.

And speaking of living rooms...

And this is the foyer...which I LOVE!

So that's my house...or well...some of my house. I'm pretty excited about it.
And I owe it all to all of YOU!
And for that, I'll give you a little something. A hint, if you will.
In the comments section of the last post someone asked what Cammie is talking about when she says "there are a lot of different kinds of gone."
But the question isn't what.
The question...
Is who.
Edited to add:
1. I absolutely, positively will not be telling you who is "gone". Heck, that particular line might not even be in the finished book--we've just started the editing process, after all, and things have a tendency to change. A LOT.
2. About Zach's line... I don't want to set a precedence here of explaining every cryptic thing Zach said in GG2 because the questions you have right now are the same questions Cammie has right now.
I will say, however, that the term "stepchild" is often metaphorical and not literal. As in "Team X is the stepchild of the Midwest Football League" or something like that.
And that's all I'm going to say on the subject.
I swear!

Love the pictures of the new house. Very pretty. Have fun moving in and getting it set up for yourself.
Who? Who on earth is Who? PLEASE! For the love of all nuggets, tell us!?!?! I so can't wait for the next book! You inspire me so much! I know you hear that A LOT, but it's so very true.
Is Who Cammie's dad?
*gasp* i love hints :) this will have me thinking for a while but i guess we wont get any answers to it for a while *sigh*.
your house is so cute! anyone moving in with you? i hope you enjoy living there!
P.S. where is gg3 in the publishing process?
Gorgeous!!!
wut? i don't get it. wut do you mean "there are alot of different kinds of gone"? i mean where did she even get that from??
omg...your house looks so pretty. thanks for showing us.
who is gone???? this is going to bug me until gg3 comes out. i need to know. is it a main main character, a main character, or just a character. i need another hint.
when you get a chance after all of the moving in, can you put up another deleted scene if you have one? pretty please?
who is gone? is it Zach? her dad? mr. Solomon? or her mom? or even bex? or lizzy or macey? omg i need to noe! omg i can't wait till the next book!!!!
ps
i love the house! it's so cute! :)
Where does Cammie say that?
Awesome house, and that clue is very, very ominous.
hey congrats on the house. it looks reallly pretty.
i just read a comment from "gone" and it referred to zach saying that the blackthorne boys are the stepchild no one talks about. then the person said Does that mean they're all orphans? and i kind of thought about that too. also zach said his parents used to be in the cia and cammie tohught that they then had something in common- losing a parent. so that would make sense if they were orphans. are they?
cant wait till gg3!
please post more deleted scenes!
who is gone?
-mr.solomon
-josh
-cammies dad
-zach
-rachel
-bex, liz, or macey
ps---what is cammies dad's name
-just wondering!?!
awwww i just hope you know your such a great author and you have an awesome house:P lol and omg omg! is it maybe cammies dad!:O
-sana<3
psh...as soon as i heard that i had to think it was about cammie's dad. gone in several senses. not gone in others. of course, she could also be talking about josh. he's gone, yet not. and then of course there's zach. he left the school, aka gone, but definitely not gone (I HOPE!!)
your house is so cute!! i love the little archways between the rooms!!
Briana
I Don't know if you got my email, but i just wanted you to know that it is really, really weird for me to read the first book when it came out only to find my name in it! well Anna is only off by a letter, but still Fetterman is not a common last name. I love it that you used that name and I salute you for that.
Okay now onto the part where she says, "There are different types of gone." My opinion is that it will be someone of importance. I think most of you will think it's Cammie's dad, it's a good guess (I'm hoping you're right too), But you never know...
The other comment was the orphans.. think of it like this, if you have a step brother, but only you and a few others would know about, then wouldn't you be forgotten most of the time? I think that yes, most of those boys are probably orphans, but still, i stick with my first opinion.
A. Anne Fetterman
daddy's coming home!!!!
i want to know accactly the P.S. on "stephanie said" i'm so stoked about the book that me and my friend..can;t stop talking about it. We hope that Zach will come back..just by the discription..we think he;s a total hottie.
I think its either
a)Zach
b)C's Dad
c)Josh
d)rachel aka c's mom
Your house is so beautiful!!! You must be soo excited to move in!!!
As for the hint OMG!!! Now my mind is spinning out of control from all the different possibilities!! I can't wait for GG3!!! I love the guess that the Blackthorne boys are all orphans, but then again, if Cammie's dad was a blackthorne boy with Mr. Soloman then they should have been orphans too, right? And Cammie visits her granparents still so that means he couldn't be an orphan, right? Unless, that set of grandparents is from her mom's side? Gah, so many possibilites, I can't wait for the next book!!!
Why do you want to torture me? This is going to keep me up all night. Darn. I hope it's Zach, though, because that would mean that Zach is in other books. Unless Zach gets killed. PLEASE DON'T KILL ZACH!
Your house is really nice. I love the living room.
Love the house, it's very cozy--and that's what everyone's looking for, right?
Catch you later Ally!
Alex
Oh, the house looks positively lovely, Ally! Congrats!
(I totally LOVE the mantelpiece on that fireplace!!)
theory:
the "gone" person is not cammie's dad, because we already know he's "gone" (in a sense). it would probably be someone we don't really think of as "gone", but in a way is...
and the stepchild thing... zach said his parents were cia, so i think that maybe blackthorne is for boys who did something against the cia that proved they were too good for the cia (as in, hacked the cia's computers or something)... and then the cia considered them amazing super-geniuses, but on the other hand they had done something illegal... so therefore they're like a stepchild to the cia, but nobody wants to remember them because they managed to hack into the cia (or whatever they did) and the government doesn't want people to think that teenagers had the capability of doing that, making them the STEPCHILD that NOBODY REMEMBERS!!!
Dude, Anon. Your fricking amazing! That is the best theory I've ever heard... I ditch mine and go with yours! Lolz. Just thought that I would post a comment to a comment... hehe
~Ashley A. Fetterman
Ally, I must say, you are a devious little cliff-hanger creating person. Because GG3 wont be out until next year probably, so we will all become totally obsessed-slash-crazy over what you mean by who. The first thing I thought was Zach, and right after I thought Rachel(Cam's mom). Don't think its her dad, but it probably is.
*Marina*
PS- Foyer really is great!
Ally,
I didn't expect you to say anything else! Really, that is amazing you haven't told us what everything is already.. I admire you for that.
~ I'm sure you know who.
waitt...what does "Team X is the stepchild of the Midwest Football League or something like that" mean? i dont get it.
someone said about cammie's dad going to blackthorne and that he has parents and therefore isnt an orphan. but i thought rachel told cammie that her dad didnt go to blackthorne, just knew people who went there, like mr.solomon.
now i think the "gone" refers to zach. cause...
- josh has been "gone" for a little while
- cammies dad has beeen go for a while
-nothing happened to mr.solomon unless it happens in this book
-and cammie needs rachel to much to have anything happen to her.
so i think it is zach because he just went away and cammie kissed him and now she can ammit she likes him and he is so hot even though i've never seen what he is supposed to look like.
ally. if you could pick someone for zack to loook like, who would it be? remeber, he must be tall, dark, and handsome!
please give us something on gg3 or another deleted scene!
i justed watched bring it on:in it to win it and there was a guy in it named penn or something like that. his real name is michael copon and he is tall, dark, and handsome. but he is toooo old. hes like 20 something. if he was younger it would be a perfect zach! i wonder if he has a younger brother?!? ha
I AM SO CONFUSED!!!!!! pleeeeeaaaaaase give us more! *sticks out lower lip*
o, and the house is awesomly amazing ally! i love it!
~ari :o)
Love the house, and all the thhints. And everyonbe, love all the theories you are coming up with. All mine have already been posted, so I will not bore you with a repost of them... If I was an author, I don't think I would be able to keep a secret about the book. I tend to talk... alot... and brag... alot.
ok i hav read and reread the last two blogs a bunch of times and heres wat i think--
1) just cause someone is a stepchild does NOT mean they are an orphan
2) because of wat ally said in the most recent blog, i don't think that the stepchild line is all that significant
3) i don't think the 'gone' is referring to cam's dad b/c how much more gone can he be? and so where would b the fun in that puzzle if it were to b that obvious?
4) i don't think its zach thats gone(i really hope not)
thats it.....all the rest of my thoughts are not yet formed enough to make any sense if i wrote them down.
of course, everything i said is probably way off, and i could be interpreting everything way wrong (these are the thoughts that will b consuming my mind on the next rainy day)
~ari :o)
The new house is lovely! I bet you can't wait to get moved in. :)
Your house look stunning!!
House looks BEAUTIFUL!!
And I won't even ask about "gone"--I'll wait impatiently!
i still think zach is the one that is "gone". i dont think that means he wont be in any other books. its just that he left and cammie misses him. but he could still come back or talk to her. just cause someone is gone doesnt mean they are dead. they could just be somewhere else, like at b.t.
and now i dont think stepchild is that important. couldnt bex, macey, liz, etc be considered stepchildren because the gall... teachers take care of them and they live there. i dont know. i bettter stop thinking about all of this too much.
LOVE the new house! Just know you WILL be missed :0(
OH MY GOODNESS!
New Theory: BEX'S PARENTS!!! THEY are GONE!!!
OH no!
Ally, this is going to kill me.
It's a good thing I have Monday off.
*Marina*
Oh my goodness! Your house is so beautiful! I love it. The foyer looks like someting out of Pride and Prejudice or Sense and Sensibility! I love that. It's so cute.
i justed watched another movie just my luck with chris pine in it. he is really cute too. but he isnt the right age for anyone in the books. but he is still hot. i'll have to keep looking!
no doubt: dad, zach, or josh
p.s. : James Marsden should get the part of Mr. Solomon
could the gone be josh? beacause he is gone in a way. like he is gone to cammie? i gotta think like a spy!!
:) i love ur books
was James Marsden in hairspray. i cant remember. i sont know what he looks like but he better be hot!
ps- someone's name is cammie morgan?
OMG! i was just thinking about James Marsden for Mr.Soloman too! he would b perfect! Also that guy who has the lead roll from that movie The Ultimate Gift is reeeally cute! he might make a good Mr. Soloman?? or if he was younger he would be a good Zach... maybe?? I was reading old posts about the movie of LYKY that might be comming out and now i'm OBSESSED with actors and actresses that would be good characters! like maybe Emily Osment for Liz? and i saw an old post from 2 years ago that had Emma Roberts picture on it and i think she would make a good Cammie!? idk?! the pics of your house are AWSOME ally! your house looks really cool! cant wait for GG3!!!!! i hope Zach is alright and is not " gone " !!! If that happend i might actually cry!! *tear,tear,tear!* : (
again, cant wait for GG3!!
-gallaghergirl95
I love your new house!
James Marsden was in Hairspray. He played Corny Collins.
-gallaghergirl95
First of all, I LOVE your house! It seems so pretty! I don't know if you've already said this somewhere and I'm too lazy to look so I'll just ask: Do you have a dog?
Okay, secondly, I know how hard it is to write a book, and I don't want the book to not be good if you rush but how far are you?! Do you take pleasure in watching our heads explode in anticipation?!
That's all I have to say for now, but be warned I will be back! God bless and have a fun time in your new house!
--Spazz
Ok, so this is totally bugging me! My guess is that it's Cammie's dad, or Zach that's gone. Although I do think that Zach will come back because of the deleted scene that you put up. You said that you weren't going to put up the secene before it because it's locked away for future use. I am not sure though. All I know is that I really hope it's not Zach. Love the pictures!
<3 Renee
that guy in The Ultimate Gift is hot but isnt he in like his late 20s. so he would have to be made to loook old. but i did like the idea of James Marsden. he'd be a great mr.s.
ally, are you enjoying us guess what will happen in gg3 and predict who will be good characters in lyky.
i bet you are!
This post has been removed by a blog administrator.
as you can see, i am very desperate to know...
IS ZACH GONA B IN GG3?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?
PLEASE ANSWERRRRRRRRR THAT!!!! I BEG YOU!!!!!!
ps. sorry for molesting your comment thingies :D
I just thought of someone who might be a great cammie! Miley Cyrus! and Brook Shields would be a good Rachel.
-gallaghergirl95
P.S Oh i thought of 1 more person!! Cody Linley would be a great Zach or Josh because it seemed like in CMH cammie said his hair was blond??? im not sure? and he could dye his hair brown for the roll of Josh because he had brown wavy hair ( ok cody linley doesnt have wavy hair but i still think he would be a good josh! )ohhhh the options!!!
Please do not, as you say, "molest" the comment section. If it gets out of hand, I'll have to disable comments from the blog, and I really don't want to do that.
The answer to the question of whether or not Zach will be in GG3 has been covered repeatedly on the blog and the website. If you really want to know what I've said on the subject before you can find it.
I LOVE THE HOUSE!!! IT IS AMAZING! love the foyer to it so adorable it reminds me of my cousins house in hong kong!
im srry but miley cyrus would NOT b a good cammie... i no thats its not up 2 u ally but i think that the characters shood b ppl that havent done any big roles yet, like people you get from an open audition. cammie's personality would b taken away from if an actor that ppl have seen b 4 has the role
i dont think miley c. would be a good cammie either. i agreee it would b good if the characters arent really big actors or actressses. cody linley is reallly cute, but i dont think he would be a good zach. he would be a better josh.
if zach were in another book with cammie, i wonder if cammie would be friends with him. cause in
gg2, she didnt like him that much. but now that they kissed, she cant say she doesnt like him.
ps- i think mr.solomon and rachel would make the cutest couple!
pss- cammie must be special to mr.solomon cause she is the only student he sometimes calls by the first name. everyone else is ms._______.
i agree with both of u! i dont think that james marsden would make a good mr. solom b/c mr. solomon has 2 b relle tough n harsh n scruffy like he is in the book but marsden is 2 pretty boy 2 do that n cody linley is cool but he isnt the best actor around
lolll ttly!! mr solomon has 2 b sum 1 more serious cause, come on!! hu would take the guy hu twirled around n sang 2 a chipmunk in enchanted seriously!? lol jk i like him but i relle want the movie to b just as good as the books r. o n hu ever josh turns out 2 b if there ever is a movie cnt b TOO goodlooking because zach has 2 b hotter than him :) btw ally u r a fantastic author n relle RELLE should b proud of ur books. I used 2 b in love with the clique books but I relle have to say that the quality of ur riting is much better than list harrison because u make ur characters so life like... I swear wen I read somtimes I feel like in watching a movie instead !!!!!!!!!!!! cnt wait 4ur nxt creation!!!!!! ~kit cat
ally I was wondering if u could give us a hint on if the girls r ever gunna go sum where else 4 a mission besides stayi n in virginia n d.c.??? if u cnt tell us i ttly understand b cause its incredible that u have a website like this in the first place! it great that u take the time to answer questions n talk to ur fans n 4 me it makes u my favorite author :)
i love ur house n congrats congrats congrats on moving in!!!! the little archways n fireplace mantle is gorgeus!!!!!
heyyy... i was just wondering were you good in english in school like im not very good at english in school but i love to read and write! like i have written short stories and lots of long stories just in my free time..so do you have to be good at english is it kmore like a commitment thing and having good ideas?
Also, i loooovee your house!! Its soo cute!
And nice hint that will leave me tinking for a while..... :)
one. for some reason, the edited looks purple to me...
two. thanks for the hint!!!!
jane
The house looks wonderful!
Teri
Cool new house. Pretty. :)
hmm...gone, in Fiji, means child, right? And it's a euphemism or something....and Government Office [for the] North East. Exhilarated, pregnant, in love with...
I'm guessing...is "gone" a kid or an adult, or maybe an organization?
ahhh so much to think about!
ahhh! love the pictures ally!
I love your house, Ally! The kitchen is great (I'm speaking as someone whose kitchen can't accomodate more than two people, and even then it's a tight fit).
OMG the house is SOOO pretty-ful!
the word "who" <----- right now i dont like that word >:(
Hey! Love the new house! Hope you make lots of happy memories there!
I luv your house living room...super cute! And I think Zach IS a total HOTTIE (OMG! I WISH I COULD MEET A HOT SPY LIKE ZACH!!!! but wait then it would probably end like cammie and josh at that would suck so watev)too...so i hope he doesn't die. I'm thinking that Cammie finds out the truth about her dad. But I dunno. I just know that I WILL EXPLODE IF I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS... but i tottaly respect the whole "secret book thing" BUT I ATLEAST NEED TO KNOW WHEN THE BOOKS COMING OUT SO I CAN COUNT DOWN THE DAYS!!!!!:)
omg the PERFECT mr. solomon would deffinetly be Daniel Craig!! he would be perfect.
Love the house. :)
let me say first that i love your new house! it is adorable.
i am rereading lyky for the second time. not that i didnt reread it before, but this time i am rereading straight through. normally, i skim through to my fav parts.
anyways.....i would love to know someone like macey. yeah she is annoy and kind of rude, but she knows everything you need to know about boys! its amazing.
and, i still believe that mr.solomon and rachel would make the cutest couple! they seem to have know eachother for a while, he winked at her on his first day of school, and she called him wise guy at the first cove ops "adventure". i hear wedding bells! in my head that is. ha keep up the great work ally and please post another deleted scene!
james marsden is too handsome for mr. s. i mean, i know mr. s is hot, but he's supposed to be more rugged, but i guess james marsden in 27 dresses would be good. i think he would be better for zach, if zach was younger
oops! i mean, if james marsden were younger.
Your house is really pretty! Oh my gosh, who is it? I know that you won't tell us, but ahhhhhhh! I want it to be her father! This is my first post but I just want to say that I love the books and that I want to be an author too. I'm taking a fiction writing class right now, and your one of my biggest inspirations. So thank you for doing what you do best!
so, I was going to comment earlier, but then my power went out right in the middle of my typing and I never really got back around to it until now.
I totally think Cammie's dad is still alive. That would be kind of wierd, but it would be so cool if he were still alive. And what Anne Frettermen said made sense. What if the "step child" zach was talking about is the school he goes to? Everyone talks about the Gallagher Academy in the spy world. How many people talk about Black Thorn Academy? Cammie's school is so fameous and talked about that Black Thorn kind of gets ignored.
And one question I have that I really hope is answered soon is how many people know about Cammeron Morgan? Zach seemed to know a lot about her. How fameous is she really? FOr someone who is so invisible I think in the spy world she's not that invisible at all.
~charlotte
I totally think that in GG2 when cammie's mom said that her husband (cammie's dad) didn't go to Blackthorne, and that he JUST had friends that went there, she was LYING... After all, that's what spies do? Right??? And she had been keeping the Blackthorne secret from her with Mr. Solomon.
(Which, doesn't anybody think there is something going on with them? In the last book, they went to that school dance thingy together where Josh and Cammie were... hmm....)
And also Ally, you have a totally A-W-E-S-O-M-E house!!! Good luck in the future!
And again, like many people before have said, you truly do inspire me... (and I check your blog every 5 minutes) :]
At first when reading CMH, I just thought that when Zach said they were the stepchild no one ever talked about, that it meant that The Gallagher Academy just had TONS more fame!!! I totally didn't know that there'd been a debate... (And hv u guys realized that Blackthorne only has 15 boys??? Not Much.) Maybe there's another school that's more famous that The Gallagher Girls don't even know about!!!!!)
P.S. I also "hypothesize" (sorry... I was doing my SFP before this...) that Zach must be an orphane, because he said his parents WERE spies...
DUN DUN DUN!!!!!!
Chao!
P.S. TOTALLY LOVE YOUR HOUSE!!!!
Good luck in the future ;)
omg! bexs dad is going to not come back and then bex is going to change like personality wise or become like kinda depressed so in a sense cammie is going to lose a little bit of bex so she could be "gone". or something happens and maceys dad runs for like president and then the school starts getting like more publicity cause she would be like the presidents daughter then it woild be kinda hard for the school being for spys so they would lose a little piece ofthe school haveing to be like rele rele careful it would kinda change alittle then it would be "gone" in a little way. or people from GA go to BT as students ( including cammie) and liz cant go cause shes not in Cov.Ops. so shes gone! all the possibilities! there could be so many things! i hope they go to BT exept therte would be no liz i like her! please tell us ally!
Hey Ally
I love the new house it looks really cute
from your clues i am starting to think Cammie is adopted but the father she speaks of is real :-{
well what ever it is i hope zack stays in all the pictures he is cute
~~~~~~~ Liyana
