Attention: Aussie Minions!

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

(Actually, Attention: All of you Minions, but…whatev – are you paying attention now? Groovy!)

I have something fangtastic for you!!! My amazing Australian publisher (Penguin AUS) has created THE COOLEST tv trailer for CoVT!!! Check it out HERE (because I am incapable of imbedding vids – yep, that and fluffy bunnies are my kryptonite). Comment and pass it on to all of your Minion and soon-to-be-Minion friends! EIGHTH GRADE BITES is headed down under very soon, so please, please, please, raid your local book store, Aussie Minions!

Also, for those of you who will be at San Diego Comic Con – keep a very close eye on my Appearance page, as I’ll be updating with exact details of where I’ll be and when. (P.S. my son Jacob will be with me!)

Oooooohhhhhh, sooooo shiiiiinyyyyyyyy…

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

Pull up a coffin, Minions, and get cozy. Everybody got your mug of blood? Good. Grab a cookie off the tray and snuggle under your lil skull-covered blankies. Because Auntie Heather has a pressie for you!

Many of you have been asking for a while now, “Aaaauntiiiiie, when can we have a booooox seeettt??” (and yes, most of you have whined a lil when you said it – but it’s cool, cuz I was whining about it too…and way more than any of you)

I’m happy to say that that day has come at long last! This November, my fangtastic publisher is releasing a box set of the first four Vlad books!! GAZE UPON ITS SPLENDOR!

I know. It’s so SHINY and AWESOME, I can hardly contain my JOY. And dude, they chopped the price, so you can get all four books in this FANGtastic set for only $29.99. How ROCK does that???

So…I’m thinking this is the PERFECT way to spread the Vlad love this Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Solstice/Holiday season. And together, we’ll take over the world!!!

The 12th sentence – D’Ablo began his thought, but then closed his mouth again, fearing the repercussions his words might bring, and forgetting in fear what he had been meaning to say.

The 12th paragraph – Joss stumbled, collapsing on the ground. Vlad flicked his eyes between Joss and his father, but remained motionless, in complete, captured awe of the man before him.

The 12th sentence on the 12th page – But Joss did attack, and if it weren’t for Dorian stepping in the way, Joss would have killed him.

Where Should Auntie Heather Go on Tour?

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

Minions!!! How cool is this? My FANGtastic publisher is once again letting the Minion Horde decide on one city that should be one of my tour stops this fall. All you have to do is GO HERE and click the link on the left to vote! Voting lasts until July 15th. I could be coming to a town near you!!! The official list of all the cities I’ll be visiting this September will be available shortly after voting ends. How awesome is that??? Every single city listed looks amazing, so it’s a win-win for me. Besides, I get to hang out with you guys – so touring is always a win-win!

By the way, FINALLY saw the trailer for Deathly Hallows. Freaked out. So excited I can’t even breathe.
