Forum Who's Heather Read It Get the News Win Things Minion Bling FAQs

Sunday, July 22, 2007

Well, CRAP!

I just wrote a loooong blog explaining why I've been absent from Bleeding Ink, why I haven't been returning much email, why I'm so lax on mailing Minion Bling. But then my Stupidity Switch flipped on and that's all gone now, deleted by the Blogger gods. Grr.

Okay, so let's try the Crib Notes version:
1. Publishing is the hardest part of writing.
2. Black eyeliner smudges easily when you cry.
3. DEVON'S PLAYGROUND is the bane of my existence, but all is better now as I begin an all new version.
4. Lazy, depressed, mopey, need chocolate.
5. Please forgive me.

Now, who wants to win Vlad's hoodie?

Heather,
I already signed up for your newsletter a long time ago. How do I find out if I'm still signed up? I've received newsletters but not lately. Do I sign up again? Tell me, tell me. I don't want to miss the opportunity to win a copy of that awesome book; signed by you, no less! :*)

Don't worry--you're still signed up. :)= I just don't send out a ton of newsletters, wouldn't want to clog up people's inboxes unnecessarily. But watch for a new one soon! (and good luck!!)

Sending a pallet load of virtual chocolate that adds no pounds and actually has happiness baked into it.

Maybe I need to send a second pallet... :)

Sooo want to be on the list to win the hoodie.

I really hate it when I lose a good blog draft. And I hate it worse when I have to start over - BUT, sometimes starting over is the best thing to do! Best of luck with the new draft!

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
