Besides being an enthusiastic bumper sticker collector, Monaghan writes several columns for her local paper as well as The Huffington Post depicting the hilarity that ensues with being a mother. Monaghan, a mother of three boys, detailed her warm welcome of the Disney news as well as what motivates her to write and the various challenges she had in becoming the successful writer she is today. With Digit’s success came Monaghan’s, as not only is there another book in the works continuing Digit’s story, but Disney Channel also bought the rights to A Girl Named Digit that will eventually be made into a television movie within the next year or so. Starting out as a non-fiction author with her book Click, a motivational guide for young people everywhere, Monaghan grew to write her bestselling series about Digit, a girl whose intellect leads to her dangerous position helping the FBI target cyber terrorists. Such is the case for Digit, the main character in the book series A Girl Named Digit and Double Digit, all by author Annabel Monaghan. Every kid goes through emotional and physical changes as a teenager, so when one is kidnapped by terrorists, it’s just a normal everyday occurrence.
