See what you get when Auntie Heather feels guilty for not blogging a lot or spending time on the forums? Free stuff!
And I’ll get to that in a second. But first…there is happy news in HeatherLand, my Minions. The clouds have parted and these feathery guys started singing and my stress level is way, way down. My fangtastic editor has granted me a stay of execution – that is, she gave me more time to finish writing TWELFTH GRADE KILLS! YAY! So, now I have until December 1st and I’m really happy about it. Of course, I’m still going to be hard at work and missing from the forums for a bit, BUT…at least I’ll have time to really get this book where it needs to be.
Also! If you are in or near Austin, Texas, you CAN NOT miss the Austin Teen Book Festival! Why? Because I’ll be there!! And it’s going to be so awesome, I can barely contain myself. More info here: http://www.austinteenbookfestival.com

TO EVERYONE WHO WON: I know I asked of this already…but do you guys think you could tell me how good/bad the books are (The ones that you all won ;-D Congrats!)? I’ve heard of them all, but my library has a hit-list…and I’m on it. Everytime I need a book from there, for some reason, IT’S. NOT. THERE. (Imagine that…)
So, once you start getting into the novel, PLEASE let me know how they are! =D I haven’t read a good book in a while (Aside from COVT, of course ;-D)
Also, does anyone here have a Fanfiction account? Just asking =).
Alrighty–gotta go! Good luck to everyone participating out there!
~Amanda (Again…yeesh…Heather’s going to think I’m trying to cheat with all these additional comments…either that, or I’m sort of stalker [which, technically, I guess I could be considered that XD])
P.S. Vanilla oreos….LOVE THEM!
P.S.S. My feet are cold. Does anyone have virtual slippers I could borrow? Preferably warm, fuzzy ones (Bunny slippers wouldn’t be too bad, either XD).
P.S.S.S. What’s everyone being for Halloween? (Anyone dressing up as Vlad? If so, PLEASE take a picture or something for me :3 I’m not trying to be a stalker–but, COME ON, ANYONE dressed up as Vlad would cause any fan to scream in joy!)
P.S.S.S.S. Who here thinks we should BEG for a Vladimir Todd movie? (How sickly awesome would THAT be :3)
P.S.S.S.S.S http://redwonderfultime.ytmnd.com/
P.S.S.S.S.S.S. (In response to above link) OH…my…Vlad. XD So hilarious! I could spend all day watching that Red Power Ranger frolicing like a moron.
P.S.S.S.S.S.S.S. A CHALLENGE TO ALL FELLOW MINIONS!: Click that link above, wait for the whole thing to load, and see if you can watch it with a straight face–that means NO SMILING. NO LAUGHING. NO MOUTH TWITCHING UPWARDS. NO MOVING. NO BLINKING. NO SMIRKING–No facial expression WHATSOEVER!

2. Never fall in love with a human
If those laws are broken they die and the books are about them braking both of them. My favorite is the first.
