EDITED TO ADD: The winner has been chosen!!! VladFan1, who commented on September 12, 2009 at 6:57 pm – please email me with your mailing address and which book you’d like! CONGRATS!!!
It’s time for a mini-contest, Minions, don’t you think? Leave a comment to enter. Winner gets this WAY AWESOME “Grow Your Own Vampire”, as well as a copy of whichever of the three Vlad books they’d like. I’ll draw a random winner on Sunday and post the name Monday morning.
Also…a Minion by the name of Amanda had a few. *ahem* “Few” questions. I’d like to answer them.
1) Do you like Orange Juice?
Yes. It is quite nummy. But it hurts my tummy.
2) Do you believe in abnormal beings out there that us humans don’t even know about?
Absolutely.
3) Doesn’t Twilight suck? (Seriously–I HATE that book…)
Well, it does have vampires *snort* I kill me! No, seriously, everyone has their personal tastes. Nothing wrong with that. I adored the first and felt it went downhill from there.
4) Do you listen to Nickelback?
Only because the radio keeps playing them. All their songs sound the same to me.
5) Do you think Transformers are awesome?
Yes! I used to watch them as a kid, so this newfound love of them is cool to watch unfold.
6) Do you WISH you could be a Transformer?
Nope. I like being me.
7) Are you stopping by New York anytime soon?
No events lined up, but early June, I’ll be there…with my son Jacob. Hmm…maybe I will set up an event, so you can all meet us!
8 ) Can you identify yourself with any of your characters (And, I mean, ANY)?
Oh yes. Vlad is what I felt like in high school…what I still feel like on occasion. He’s the unpopular, misunderstood me. Nelly is the worrying mother in me. And Otis…well, I think I’m most like Otis. Sharp, semi-quiet, a fixer, conflicted, but protective of those he loves.
9) Who do you WANT Vlad to be with, girl-wise (No, you don’t have to give away who he gets together with in the upcoming book…just….who do you think is better for him, personally?)
I want Vlad to be with someone who truly gets him and can accept him for who and what he is.
10) Do you have a boyfriend? *wiggles eyebrows suggestively*
Nah, my husband would get mad. 
11) Have you read Harry Potter?
I have DEVOURED that series several times over.
12) Did you ever go to Japan?
No, but I plan to.
13) Do you think hermit crabs are digusting and utterly repulsive?
I won’t touch them. But…they’re kinda cute from afar.
14) Have you ever seriously injured yourself?
No, but that’s because I’m a big chicken.
15) Do you HATE bugs?
Not at all. I think every living creature has its place.
16) Any advice for people who struggle through jerks in high school? Just out of curiosity.
This too shall pass, believe it or not. I was the most picked on kid at my school…and now the bullies’ children are Minions. 
17) Did you ever go on Fanfiction?
Nope.
18) Is Henry hot?
Oh yes. Way too hot for his own good. It’s a McMillan thing. Joss is hot too – hotter than Henry, even.
19) Is OTIS hot?
Otis is super mega ultra hot.
20) Do you gag when people think of Vlad and Henry….being a couple *face turns green*
Nope. I’ve seen a few Yaoi drawings around and heard of a few fanfics like that – if people love them so much that they take them to a place they enjoy, I’m okay with that. Auntie has a very open mind…even if I totally do not see Vlad and Henry hooking up.
21) Do you own a purple pen?
Several. They match my hair.
22) What was the most disgusting thing you’ve EVER done in your life?
Gave birth. Seriously. Gross.
23) If I did something very courteous for you, would you give me a copy of ELEVENTH GRADE BURNS, after making sure I promise and signed something saying I’d never give ANY info about it to ANYONE?
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Oh wait, you’re serious?
24) Favorite number?
13!
25) Your opinion on squids, please.
They are squidlike and squiddy.
26) Ever stepped in cow manure?
No.
27) Have you ever gone sky-diving? If so, what’s it like?
No way! Chicken, remember?
28) What shampoo do you use?
Depends. I dig Paul Mitchell, but Pantene gets the job done.
29) Aside from your own books, any reccommendations to read? Us fan need SOMETHING to help us wait patiently for your next book to come out.
What about monster unicorns? Read RAMPANT by Diana Peterfreund.
30) Do you like the color blue?
It’s okay.
31) Think of a number.
Now, double it.
Then, add four.
Divide by two.
Subtract the original number.
Is your answer 2?
(Cool, isn’t it?)
WHOA. That’s eerie…
32) Do you think hobos are awesome, in thier own way? Or do they creep you out?
Hobos are awesomely creeptastic.
33) What was your past like?
Dull and lonely.
34) Do you believe in aliens?
Yep.
35) Have you ever thought you went crazy?
Thought I was on the verge of crazy, but I’m better now. Besides…everyone’s a little crazy.
36) Did you notice that there’s an arrow in the FedEx logo?
Huh. No. Thanks for pointing that out. HA! Get it??? Pointing?? I crack me up.
37) Do you own any scratch and sniff stickers?….If so, can you ship them to me?
No, but I used to collect them! Had a leather one. It stunk.
38) Have you ever been followed by someone (it could be anyone–friends, family)
Not that I’m aware of. (and OMV what a creepy stalker question…)
39) Do you puzzle why pieces of art that a six-year old could pull off costs tons of millions of dollars?
No. I don’t think too much about others’ interpretations of what art is.
40) Are you intrigued by the Earth?
Totally.
41) Ever witness roadkill?
Yes, but not caused.
42) Do you like sporks?
I love sporks!!!
43) Have you ever used sporks?
YES!!
44) Do you have an ipod?
Yeppers – a nano. And an iphone.
45) Is yours as awesome as my iTouch?
My iphone is better
46) Do you like waffles?
Yummy!
47) Are you a vegetarian?
No. Eating meat is murder….yummy, yummy murder.
48) Does blood gross you out?
Dude. Have you read the books?
49) Ever hear of Operation Beautiful?
Yes. Just now when you typed it. What is it?

Good luckz with the writing and stuffy.
haha funny. If you want to get another monster and a vampire into a fight, what would you do it about. I need some help from a professional!!! i also need help to stop making the lines so cheesy and discusting. i dont like to make guys cry. its weird but cute. i like to make them cry., i ahte this i am so bipolar. i like what you were answering.
i love yaoi but not that way. i am an anime tard so that is how i am. but no way not vlad and henry!! ew. just saying. not good pairing. i want Meredith to find out that vlad is a vampire. that would be awesomeness@!!!
is the contest still open??? cuz im DYING to read tenth grade bleeds but my library doesn’t have it and i only have $5 :,(
oops! i guess can’t read! congrats VladFan1!!! feel free to have another contest Auntie Heather!
omv-? 20
wen i first started reading the cronicals of vladamire tod i was thinking how cool it would be if vlad and heny hoocked up
i still think in would be hot
woops typo (henry) srry
Please answer a question for me is vlad still the pravus what do you belive should he be it or not well if you ask me i think he still is the pravus and that maybe the stuff that D’Ablo took out of him was of no impotance at all maybe it was just water and some venom who knows
Ok like im dealing with a huge book problem I’ve read 15 in the past week an a half and im in the midst of writing my own book which would be awsome if one day i could show you but i better get back to writing if you have any suggestions for great Vamp books please tell me
Vlad ya later
(yes i totally just made that up)
these’s books are off the chain and i don’t wanna wait till nxt year to read the rest of them im read for my fix on your books
