Rambling Thoughts (and a friendly reminder from Auntie Heather...and also, an ARC mini-contest)
Good morning/afternoon/evening, my Minions! And how's the Minion Horde doing today? Your Auntie Heather is in a fabulous mood...mostly because she's putting the finishing touches on TENTH GRADE BLEEDS, which fills her with great joy. (I know, I know--you all want hints as to what happens. Suffice it to say that Vlad's life sucks. Big time. And I think TGB is even better than NGS. But...you'll all have to be the judge and let me know...eventually...I don't even know its publishing date yet.) But I'm also in a good mood because I keep getting emails from new Minions. It's nice to see the Horde growing, y'know?
Okay, reminder time. Have you and everyone you know entered to have a character named after you in TGB?? I pick the name tomorrow, and I'm sooooo excited to finally put a name to one of the characters I've chosen. Don't forget, I'll also thank you in the Acknowledgments...because I'm cool like that. :)=
And now...why don't we give away some ARCs of NINTH GRADE SLAYS? (be forewarned, these advanced copies will have errors and, just in case you don't want to miss anything crucial, you should still pick up the actual book in April) It'll be a contest quickie. Write a short tribute to Vlad--be it a poem, a haiku, a funny one-liner, or a really short scene--and submit it here as a comment. I'll pick three winners a week from now on February 8th, and send those winners autographed advanced copies of NGS. Sound good? Get to work, Minions--Feb. 8th is coming up fast!!!

Vladimir Tod sucks...in a GOOD way
Sorry im afraid thats the best ive got (lol) *cough cough* well, it was worth a shot right?
Vamipres
Lay
All
Day
and play all night.
It's still early,I see if I can think of more during the day.
I have to say life hasn't been too happy for me over here. Just hopeing you'll pick my name tomorrow. I'll get to writing a little scene today probably. I have to get started on that story some how XD.
Vlad is Russian name
Why's he living in U.S.?
Come to Aussieland
Have a lovely day! :-)
Valentine recipe for Vlad:
Get 2 scoops of vanilla bean ice cream, a handful of sugared strawberries, and a handful of razberries. Drizzle some chocolate syrup and a bag of the finest O+ available for a cross-your-heart valentine sundae. Packed full of iron and a sugar high.
Thats all I got, Im working on my thesis (minions can be old, right?) and my brain is kaput.
I'll put a Haiku since I'm learning Japanese. :)= It usually goes 5-7-5 syllables, but I did 7-5-7.
It leaves stains on the carpet,
It stains his shirts too.
The dry cleaners are concerned.
Not very good. -_- Maybe the scene will be better, or even a poem. GAH! I love this contest! Writing poems and short stories are so fun!
LOL... I did a haiku too!
sing the moon, the night
the peace and quiet of dark
warm sun comes too soon
Hope that is good enough from this old dodger.
ok im gonna try again...here goes....
Eight Grade Bites, Ninth Grade Slays, Tenth Grade Bleeds, face it....sometimes school SUCKS
Well that's what it sounds like anyway
better but still.....we....SUCKY :)=
black cape
cool night
Vlad giving some kids an scary fright
angel wings
teeth that bite
halloween, what a beautiful night
These are great, Minions! Keep 'em coming!
Ahem... A haiku. lol.
Snack packs and blood on hotdogs
Who wants to eat that?
Life kind of sucks as a vamp
Tehehe....
Also, the literal translation of Vladimir is "prince." I only know that because I always planned on the name "Vlad Michael" for a first boy child until Jason came along and told me he didn't want our children to get beat up. lol.

I admit, it's not easy
Being a bloodsucking creature of night
With all the homework, crushes, and garlic
It's rare when things go right.
Yet despite the idiot bullies
And the annoying allergy to the sun
I've still got my human best friend
And undescovered powers to make things fun.
Just because other vamps
Seem to want me dead
Doesn't mean I can't live my life
And no, I DON'T have a coffin for a bed.
I don't pay attention to curfew;
I like to wander the night.
Despite some of it's turnoffs
Being a vampire doesn't ALWAYS bite.
I wrote that awhile ago. Hope you like it!
<3333
How about a cheer? :*)
Vlad, Vlad, he's our man, if he can't bleed you, no one can!
Hope it didn't "suck", but I'm sick and brain dead...
Can't wait for TGB!
My school library has a whole section dedicated to vampire books and me and my friends suggested them all! Currently EGB has several holds and many impatient readers waiting for more!
*Random* My teacher say i read about vampires too much *doesn't see the problem*
Can't wait to see what suckishly cool things Vald and you have in store for us!
-Janna*James*
I borrowed EGB from a friend and i loved it! So even though im not a good writer im going to give this a shot in hopes that i win. So here we go:
My name is Vlad, and im a vampire. if you dont like it, you can bite me
I know its short but i think its worth a shot
