Shock, Fear, and Battles: a day in the life of Auntie Heather

First off, I want to thank the many Minions who responded to my tweet on Saturday by coming out to the RT book fair to buy books. Auntie Heather loves you! Actualy…Auntie Heather loves ALL of you – but I really needed some Minion love that day, so thank you. Nobody rocks it like the Minion Horde!

Now…onto SHOCK, FEAR, and BATTLES!

SHOCK: Auntie Heather has lost her voice! Apparently, I gabbed too much during the LA Times Festival of Books and the Romantic Times Convention, and now I can barely ...

WE WON, MINIONS!!

Forgive the blog silence, Minions, but Auntie Heather has been travelling lately (in fact, I got back from LA Times Festival of Books on Sunday afternoon and I'm typing this while sitting at the airport in Saint Louis, on my way to the Romantic Times Convention in Columbus, OH until May 2nd), not to mention dealing with monster edits on TWELFTH GRADE KILLS (yes…AGAIN. Like the fifth round of edits. But only the best for my Minion Horde!). But I write to you now with excellent news. News I...

Minions, Prepare Thyself for News of Epic Proportions!

This is big, Minion Horde. This is awesomely, epicly good.

I'm sure by now you all know about the soon-to-be-released amazingness that is Iron Man 2. But what you don't know is that something very cool is linking US (your Auntie Heather & you, my loyal Minions) to that movie!

At select theaters, before the movie is shown, a 15-second ad will be shown for THE CHRONICLES OF VLADIMIR TOD!!! The ad will be shown twice before the movie, and will also be shown on TVs in the lobby. HOW COOL IS...

Attack of the Killer Sponge Monster!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Auntie Heather's being attacked by a…a…wait. What the heck IS that thing?!

No idea, but it was in Key West. Which is where Auntie has been for a week. Celebrating 15 years of being with Unca Paul. Palm trees, sunset sails, fun people, and beatiful scenery – Key West was amazing. But I haven't just been lost down in the Keys, my Minions. I've also been lost in the final edits for TWELFTH GRADE KILLS. They're due on April 23rd, but will be turned in a bit before that, as I...

The UK, Australia, My Awesome Husband & Stephen King

I love happy news! The UK/AUS sale of The Chronicles of Vladimnir Tod is official! Check out this fangtastic press release!

I couldn't be more pleased about this, Minions. I've been waiting a LONG, LONG time for foreign sales, and it may have taken me until I reached the end of the series, but it's totally been worth the wait. And the folks at Penguin UK/AUS hve been so friendly and amazing already. I'm sure we'll be very happy together.

Almost as happy as I am with my wonderful husband, who ...

Big News! Auntie Heather is Taking Over the World!

Minions, we all know by now that I, your fearless leader, have entrusted you with one goal: grow the Minion Horde. The reason? Why, world domination, of course! It's all I've ever asked of you, all I have ever wanted. And I have huge news on our quest to taking over the world. Here's a hint:

Any guesses?

VLAD IS GOING GLOBAL!!! Penguin UK/AUS have acquired the rights to publish The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod (or CoVT, as we all like to call it)! Which means several cool things:

1. We now have ...
