Scholastic Author Video

Greetings, Minion Horde!

Two quick things:

1. Apparently, several Minions have been receiving their Minion Bling SASE back ripped open and empty, so I'm halting all Minion Bling orders right now, until I figure out the best way to ensure that you all get the Bling that you've sent away for. It's frustrating, because this never used to be a problem before, but apparently, it is a problem now. As of a week ago, all Bling orders have been filled. The rest will have to wait until Auntie Heather can figure out a way to fix the issue. (The only way to fix it might be by having Minions send bubble envelopes and additional postage, but I'm hoping that's not the case)

2. Remember how I mentioned that Scholastic was coming out to film me for an author video? Well, it's on their site!!! I'm so, so jazzed about this. FYI, that handsome devil playing Vlad? That's my son, Jacob (also known as PRAVUS on the forums). He rocks!

So...that's all for now. Auntie Heather is busy battling the horrendous combination of insomnia and tight deadlines. Blehhh...

Wow the bord is quite....

I just finished breaking dawn last night, realllyyyyyyyy didn't lkike it!!!!!!!!

The only part of the book I found ok was from page 540 to the ending, though the later parts were my favorite, except the ending, it could have been much better then the way she made it.

But I would preffered more conflict and fighting, and Bella wasn't clumsy blushing Bella anymore, that made me sadd. :(=

In my opinion the book sucked, but the last 200 hundred pages were ok, basicly inbetween the Volturi clearing and after Irina Sees them were only parts I liked....

But thats just my opinion!!!!!!

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
