Minions & Revisions

It seems my ink has bled all the way over to another site, as I received an email from a minion (Hi, Helena!) letting me know that she posted a lovely, four-star review of my blog here. Thank you so much, loyal minion! I'd have thanked you by email as well, but GoDaddy is being a bloodsucking fiend today (and not in the good way)--but if you'd like, I'd love to send you some Minion Bling. Drop me an email with your mailing address (I can still receive mail, for some odd reason).

Happily, I'm on chapter sixteen (titled "The Afterlife") of Ninth Grade Sucks, with one more chapter to revise after this. SQUEE! But I may be spending too much time with Vlad. Last night I dreamt I got stopped by airport security for having a wooden stake in my carry-on luggage (which is shaped like a coffin, of course...no, really). Weird.

Okay, back to work with me! The undead won't write about themselves, you know...

EDIT: Okay, so I'm a big tech idiot and forgot to empty my trash bin. Email is working fine now. Duh, me.

I should worry that you know where to find coffin luggage...but somehow, I think it'll all be ok. If it's any consolation, I was dreaming of dragons last night, even though I really need to finish up edits on my mutants ;)

Nah, you shouldn't worry about that. I'm the queen of morbid.

Speaking of which, are you interested in blood vial jewelry? I can find that too. :D

ROFL. Creepy, very creepy. Scary thing is...I know where to find that TOO!!!

I wish my sales guys would hush today. I can't sneak any writing in at all.

What People Are Saying About 'Eighth Grade Bites'

"A spooky mystery that's funny, gruesome, heartwarming, spellbinding, sad, joyous, surprising and topped off with a tasty blend of blood and chocolate. Yum. What more could you ask for?" ~D.J. MacHale, New York Times-bestselling author of PENDRAGON: JOURNAL OF AN ADVENTURE THROUGH TIME AND SPACE

"'Eighth grade Bites' had me on the edge of my seat. It's a great piece of fiction. It drops you right into the action, grabs you by the throat (pun intended), and won't let go. Vladimir Tod is a truly sympathetic character cursed with an existence not of his own doing, but doing his best to do the right thing. It's part 'Goosebumps' mixed with 'Harry Potter' and a dash – no, a heaping tablespoon – of Stephen King. If you're in eighth grade, or a vampire, or an eighth grade vampire, 'Eighth Grade Bites' is a definite must read!"~Butch Hartman, creator of Nickelodeon's THE FAIRLY ODD PARENTS and DANNY PHANTOM

"Eighth Grade Bites is a terrific vampire tale told with a sharp, middle-school grin. It definitely does not bite!" ~Christopher Moore, author of BLOODSUCKING FIENDS and A DIRTY JOB

"Eighth Grade Bites is a delightful novel filled with dark, biting humor that will appeal to everyone who ever felt they were different. A deft hand at depicting the angst of teen years, Heather Brewer does a wonderful job blending vampire legend with the modern day horror that strikes fear in the heart of so many: the eighth grade."~Katie MacAlister, New York Times-bestselling author of EVEN VAMPIRES GET THE BLUES

"Heather Brewer has invented the most endearing of vampires in Vlad, an eighth grader juggling the woes of adolescence with the decidedly unique difficulties of being a vampire. She perfectly captures the humor and angst of eighth grade, mixed with a nail-biting adventure. Utterly charming and irresistible!" ~Liza Conrad, author of HIGH SCHOOL BITES: THE LUCY CHRONICLES

"This book will fool you. Just when you think you've identified it as a story lit by the cheery glow of a slightly scary jack-o-lantern, it becomes something else -- a tale told by the flickering light of a dying campfire late at night. And the shadows are very dark indeed. A surprising mix of humor and horror." ~Douglas Rees, author of VAMPIRE HIGH

"Fresh and fast-paced, with just the right brew of chills and laughs. I’m looking forward to finding out what happens when Vlad hits Grade Nine." ~Nancy Baker, author of KISS OF THE VAMPIRE

"A fabulous book from a gifted storyteller! I never wanted it to end." ~Gena Showalter, author of OH MY GOTH
