Career

Elyse Harrison(Lisi) began her career working at MTV in New York City, creating and developing shows such as "Room Raiders" and "One Bad Trip." She says that MTV was what inspired her to write the The Clique. A lot of the employees would try so hard to be accepted by the "cool people" and it reminded Lisi of how teens act in middle school trying to fit in. She wrote her first novel The Clique, and its sequel Best Friends for Never, while she was still working at MTV. In June 2004 she decided to write full time and left MTV, moving from New York City to Laguna Beach in 2007.[3] Her first two novels became the basis for the on-going Clique series which currently spans twelve novels; the thirteenth is due in March 2010 and there will be 14 total.[4] From April to August 2008, Harrison published a series five novellas as part of a subseries of "The Clique" entitled "The Clique Summer Collection".[5] She also wrote the Alphas as spin off the Clique series. It includes Skye Hamilton, alpha of the DSL Daters, as a main character.
