Tag! I'm it!

Okay, so I was tagged by both Thomas Kingsley Troupe and Jackie Kessler, so I'm totally cheating and blogging once. :)=

Here are the rules:

1. Each player lists 8 facts/habits about themselves.

2. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning before those facts/habits are listed.

3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

I decided that it would be fun to have my 13-year-old son, Jacob, tell you eight things about me. So here he is!

1. She's a good mom, we chat with one another on IMVU and Yahoo when we're in the same room.

2. Her idea of cooking is dialing Papa John's.

3. She introduced me to Stephen King's books.

4. She sucks at sports (of course, we both share that one...).

5. She's NOT a morning person.

6. Don't throw anything at her, cuz she can't catch.

7. She LOVES My Chemical Romance.

8. She picks her nose while she sleeps (Nah, I'm kidding!).

I'm tagging Holly Black, Cecil Castellucci, Lisa McMann, Little Willow, Gena Showalter, and all three of the fabulous Disco Mermaids.

Sounds like your son might follow his mother's footsteps into the writing world. At least, he should!

(And we recently did this meme, but we can pretend we just pre-empted your tag so you don't have to find three more bloggers.)

I think you meant to tag Holly, but I got a notice from LiveJournal that you had replied to my comment instead. :)

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
