While I am flattered, my Minions, by the impression some of you have of me, I feel the need to clarify a few things that have been popping up in my inbox and mailbox as of late.
1. Auntie Heather does not have people who open her mail for her.
You can look at my papercut fingertips to see that not only do I open all of my mail by myself…I’m also not smart enough to use an letter opener. Besides, I can’t afford to hire people to open my mail. Plus, it would be way creepy to know someone was reading my mail before me.
2. Auntie Heather does not have people who run her MySpace for her.
The hours that it takes to maintain and iteract via MySpace are all spent by yours truly. If you get a message from me on there – unless it’s a hacker, it’s really, truly me.
3. Auntie Heather does not hang out at lavish parties with all sorts of famous author people every weekend.
And no, I don’t know Stephanie Meyer personally. I do know lots of ultra cool, amazingly talented authors…but we rarely get together to party, as we’re busy writing books.
4. Auntie Heather is 35 years old.
Not 20. Not 16. Not 10.
Thirty-five. And she’s totally cool with that. After all, growing older is mandatory. Growing up is optional.
5. Auntie Heather cannot give free books to you, just because you ask her.
If everyone got a free book…no one would buy my books and then my career would be over. That would make me sad. *insert frowny face here*
Any other questions?

Btw, i jsutr heard a some-what creepy thing…the next town over had like a school fight (don’t know all teh complete details) but my friend told me some kid ended up at a hospital!
This school is also supposed to be very…prestige….
Lesson here: be nice, don’t insult other people in anyway (started otu with name callign by race) and don’t get a bat adn parents into it….

Oh wow, that isn’t good news!
Taco Johns is basically the same as Taco Bell, just with minor differences, and one of them has potato oles whilst the other does not (right now I’m thinking Johnny has the unhealthy yummies)
um.. yeah that’s all…
Ah, i see, thnx
alothugh, it’s not more bad news
I never said it was good news…jsut odd news…
I got more details on it, but i doubt i want to bring ur good moods down
Jess
I know… but… I don’t…. er…
I wouldn’t mind knowing…what happened.
“K8 – I’m assuming I got it, but Auntie Heather is forgetful and gets a TON of mail. So…I dunno. But prolly. Also, if you hate SASEs…you can always come to an event. Otherwise, make friends with SASEs.”
Yay! You answered ^^
It had a drawing of Vlad on it…came in a special envelope that I turned into the vampire smiley…
*cries* Curse you SASEs!!!!
Why does everyone hate SASEs so much?
Lol, seriously, my word verification word is ‘diess’
lol.
U want to know what happened? Really?
Uh, well this kid was calling another kid a name, so the other kids father and older brother got a baseball bat and were goign to…i guess beat up teh other kid when another boy, ‘the hero’ stepped in, trying to stop teh fight, adn got hurt. He was in teh hospital but got out soon after…
It was….weird….but it does teach you a lesson.
Peopel are insane!

AND, it seems that half the people in this planet (over half?) need anger management help.
Oh yes, yes they do.
Jess
Wow. You remind me more of a woman in there 20’s. You’re an amazing writer though and I can’t wait to read eleventh grade burns. Saw the cover and I drooled all over my keyboard. Heheh. I wish the Vlad books would never end…one question about Vladimir Tod. What about when Vlad goes to college? I’ll miss Vlad SOOOO MUCH! But I can’t wait to read all the rest of your books that I know will be vampireliciously, wafftastical, and zombieful!!!!
