The Many Woes of High School


Sorry I haven't been blogging much, Minions. Vlad and I have been having a good, long talk about his junior year (TENTH GRADE BLEEDS has already been written and accepted by my editor, so I'm currently writing ELEVENTH GRADE BURNS). In short...it sucks. Not the story, but everything Vlad is facing. And here I thought 10th grade was bad...

What kills me is that I can share none of it with you, because anything I want to babble about will give away secrets that I'm not ready for you to know just yet....y'know? So bear with your Auntie Heather. I'm working hard not to disappoint you.

That being said, I've come to a point where I need input from my Minions. So, without further ado, a poll:

Soliciting your fans for advice is always dicey at best. The author gets to decide. Then again I am not fan of M. I think Vlad would go for someone a little less, um, well, perky.

I'm not asking for advice. I'm asking for opinion. ;)

Well...I guess loath was a little too strong of a word...(sorry Meredith! Nothing personal, honest!)
But I really don't see her being the right one for Vlad...I mean it could happen but I see Vlad being with someone who is his like a best friend to him for a long time before they go out...

Anyways I love Happy Bunny I just got two t-shirts. "Lets talk about what u can do for me" and "cute but pysco" Which both fit me well ;)

And Vlad my friend I can sympathize with the hell we call high school. My 10th grade schedule is already looking like hell and this comes from Ms. #1 in her freshman class (don't ask me how I managed that one!)

How is your summer Heather? Mine has been very uneventful so far...no beach time with my mom working till four...maybe I should call Sam...(she has a pool, yay for minions with pools!)

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
