What will the launch parties be like? And who won???

I keep getting asked this, so I wanted to pop on and let you all know the fun that awaits you! First off, I have awesome purple iPod Nanos, hoodies (both pullover and zip-up), t-shirts and Bling to give away. There will be cookies, cake, cool decorations, games, and most importantly, yours truly, signing my new book: TENTH GRADE BLEEDS! Trust me, Minions, if you can make it to the Flint, Michigan Barnes & Noble on June 13th or the Fairview Heights, IL Borders on June 27th, you do NOT want to miss these parties! Grab all of your Minion and soon-to-be-Minion friends, because these are going to be Minion Horde gatherings like you have never seen before!

Now, on to who won the photo contest. Originally, I had planned on choosing a winner based on the photo sent...but I can't pick! So I chose randomly. And the winners are...

Grand Prize: Ricky Guerrero
1st prize: Jen Robles and LeiAnn Sweeney

Congratulations, Minions! I've already dropped you each an email. Please send me your address and I'll get your prize out to you soon!

That stinks that you decided to choose randomly. But hey, it's not like I really win anything anyways. I'd love to snatch me one of those hoodies, though. ^-^

Congrats to the winners! And yeah, I guess it would be hard to pick just one... Although I worked hard on mine. lol. I wish I could go to one of the parties or at least see the webcast, but I cannot. Seeing that I am going to FLORIDA, I preordered my copy of Tenth Grade Bleeds first chance I got. ^.^

Hey Auntie Heather,will you be doing another 'Writing Exercise' in Otis's classroom on the forum again? I just seen it last night and I thought it was pretty neat. I didn't know you were doing it last time and I didn't have a name on it (still don't, but plan on getting one). 0_o

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
