Teen Vampire Hits New York!

Yep, Vlad is on the loose...or at least he was yesterday. Last night, my wonderful editor emailed to let me know that the photo shoot for my cover went very well--the model that they found is just so perfect to portray Vlad. I'm THRILLED with my experience so far! Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a dream...

But I'm not too deeply entrenched in DreamLand to remember that I have minions to support. I've ordered more buttons (because, wow, you people LOVE this stuff) and I mailed out another batch of Minion Bling yesterday--if you haven't received any or still haven't asked, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? They're FREE, COOL, and give you bragging rights, as you'll be part of my minion horde. What's not to love? Drop me an email with your address, which I promise not to share with anyone. Free stuff rawks!

That's pretty dang exciting, I must say. I'm looking forward to getting my mitts on your book.

Completely unrelated: What's your opinion on zombies?

Sure they're not a slick as vampires, but they're still part of the 'undead family.' What do you give them? Thumbs up? Down?

And I'm looking forward to you getting your mitts on my book. :)= (Vlad insists it's something you can really sink your teeth into)

On the subject of zombies: I am a big fan of zombies. However, mine is more a love of watching them from afar, not having them over for dinner. After all, you can't really trust a zombie, since they have a mindless lack of restraint when it comes to your braaaaaains...not that you can trust most vampires, but if I'm going to die by being consumed, I prefer to have slick lines and snazzy clothes accompany my end. (And zombies aren't the best dressers...if they dress at all)

Regardless, I do love them. Just can't respect them. (and yes, I have given this some thought) :)=

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
