Six Degrees of Joss Whedon. Pop Confidential and Daytime Confidential would like to extend mad props to one of our favorite writers, Andrew Miller, creator of the best web series ever, Imaginary Bitches. Miller has been tapped to write the pilot for a new, high profile project for Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain, both of whom wrote for Joss Whedon's Angel and Dollhouse series. New York Magazine's Vulture blog broke the news of Craft and Fain adapting Vampire Diaries author L.J. Smith's Secret Circle book series for The CW. Alloy Entertainment, the transmedia juggernaut behind such teen hits as Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants, Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars and Vampire Diaries, is packaging the series.

The Secret Circle books revolve around Cassie, a teenage girl who is forced to leave behind SoCal for life in New England. Once there she bonds with a creepy group of kids, who turn out to be a coven of deadly witches. Yep, just like my high school senior trip. I caught up with the hubby of The Young and the Restless cutie Eden Riegel to get the dish on his new gig.
"The Secret Circle is a brilliant book series that uses the supernatural to explore the idea of adolescent empowerment and what to do with the power once you've got it," says Miller. "It's fun, sexy and edgy and I'm thrilled to be a part of it."
Sounds like Must See CW to me!

This is awesome in so many ways! Andrew Miller hooked up with Whedonites? Excellent. *Much* better than anything Chuckles Pratt may be writing.
