Auntie Heather has been a busy little scribbler this week, minions. Apart from writing, I’ve joined three organizations: Horror Writers Association, Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (pending), and The Society of Children’s Book Writers & Illustrators. All of which, I’m immensely proud to be a part of.
I also met a really great guy named Pat last week who used to manage a Borders around here. (Hi Pat!) Pat is now a minion (complete with button–everybody wave) and has vowed to spread the word about Eighth Grade Bites, or to put it in Pat’s words, “I’ll promote the hell outta that thing”. Yes, we love Pat immensely.
But now it’s time for Auntie Heather to head back to freshman year with Vlad, who is feeling rather, well, bitey this week. I imagine it’s all the sunshine. Vampires, as you know, have quite the allergy to sunlight. As do redheads (ie, yours truly). Neither one of us tans, we merely step out into the sun and burst into flames.

That is great news about the organizations and about “Pat”
Go write and please please please stay out of the sun:) The last thing we want is a crispy Heather.
Got the buttons yesterday. I’ll be handing them out this weekend
Yay!
Congrats, sweetie! Can’t wait to see you at the HWA and SFWA meetings. I’ll bring the punch — otherwise, Vlad will probably convince you to swap the drink for something…thicker…
“And sweeter!” he shouts over my shoulder.
See you there, doll!
sooo… I guess that if I want to hang with the two of you more I really need to get my stuff published and sold so I can go to some of those meetings.
*puts nose back to grindstone*
Don’t forget about the Class of 2k7 membership. That’s a very exclusive club!
You can definitely hang with us, Ewoh.
How could I forget? In fact, I’ll be blogging about the Class of 2k7 tomorrow!
In fact, Ewoh…we insist on it
