Secrets and Time Away

Greetings, Minions!

As you can tell, Auntie Heather took a much-needed blogging break after the craziness of the hoodie give-away (by the way, if you're waiting on your hoodie still, hang in there...life is super mega ultra crazy right now, but I'll get them in the mail soon). And what sucks is that this blog entry is only to tell you all that I'm headed out of town for the weekend, so I'll be unavailable.

Plus...it's to tell you that I have wonderful news and I CAN'T TELL YOU YET. Which is killing me. Seriously. And I can't be made to suffer alone, so now you'll be bugged by it too. *evil grin*

Have you Minions been spreading the Vlad love? It sure seems like it (thank you!), as Vlad has been popping up in libraries and bookstores all over the country. You Minions rock! Behave this weekend (or don't--behaving isn't much fun, truth be told). First one to post is in charge of the Minions all weekend. :)=

P.S. Vlad can't decide whether blood tastes better with chocolate or peanut butter and jelly. Discuss.

Behave? I try not to but I'm so quiet and stuff people say I'm a goody-two-shoes. O_o I've been telling my friends at school about Vlad and I'm going to tell meh teacher to get it for her library.

Also Vladimir, chocolate is better. Sweet and succulent. :)=

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
