Sloane Crosley's Book Gets HBO Treatment

TV rights for I Was Told There'd Be Cake, the best-selling essay collection by Vintage publicist Sloane Crosley, have been sold to HBO for series development. This according to an announcement posted on the Publisher's Marketplace bulletin board over the weekend.

That's all we know for now, except that CAA did the deal. Watch this space for an explanation from Ms. Crosley herself; we will update when she returns our call.
