Judith Graves's Blog, page 26

Where I'ze at today...

This month is going to be smoking busy with bloggers kind enough to feature UMS for the March blog tour (building up to the March 27th release date). I don't want to plaster the Wolfy Chicks blog every day with notices, but I do want to make sure the bloggers get some love back for all their hard work.

So, every few days I'll give a shout out and provide some links.

But it's the first day - and I'm wayyyy too excited - so here's a HOWLLLL out to Mel at He Followed Me Home. Mel is a fun, fab, an...

Character Interview Smackdown

Who knows how they got out of our computers, but Eryn and Kasey have been chatting behind our backs. Check out their current commiserating on the Leap Books blog. It's a Team Freaksville vs. Team Redgrave throwdown.

So they think they have it bad now, do they? Kitty and I really let them have it in the next instalments of their respective sagas. ;)

UMS Launch Party and Giveaways

I know it's a month away....but I wanted to thank the many friendly bloggers who have teamed up with me and Leap Books for my blog tour in March. THANKS! See the full list of them here. Without you, I'd be boring my husband, and dogs, and all my friends with facts about myself they know far too well. Now I get to set my quirks free on the blogosphere. Cool!
I also discovered, from Caitlin's blog, Written Word Review, that UMS is available for pre-order at Barnes and Nobel (with a bonus 5...

Judith Graves Vlog: The Modern Vampire

Heya, so I got brave today and decided to do a vlog of sorts about the changing perception of the modern vampire in popular culture. Sounds like a thesis paper, but I swear I made it entertaining.

You'll get to see my messy kitchen and all my critters at home. My Buffy graphic novel collection and my Dracula figurines. Even better - you'll get a few sneak peeks at the some of the illustrations within UMS, created by the amazing Val Cox. Other than hack-laughing through the first minute (notice...

radio interview

http://leapbks.blogspot.com/2010/02/h...

I forgot to mention that I'm being interviewed today at 3pm EST on a radio show about books for teens. Stop by and ask questions if you'd like. I'm a bit nervous as this is my first live show.

Interview with Joy Preble

Judith and I are lucky enough to be part of the Class of 2k10. It's a great group of debut authors, and one of the major bonuses is the Class of 2K9. Joy Preble of the Class of 2K9 is my class mentor. I'm truly lucky to have her to share her wisdom and I'm sharing the treat with you. Joy stopped by Wolfy Chicks for a chat.

Welcome Joy!

I'm currently working on Haunted, which is the sequel to Dreaming Anastasia and I have to say I'm ve...

Class of 2K10 line-up

I thought I'd share the Wolfy Chicks (we love our Wolfettes) love with my fellow debut authors from the class of 2K10. www.classof2k10.com. Now not all are paranormal books but, still some pretty amazing reads. Here's a little teaser of the line up. How many are you going to read???? I have my wish list started. Care to compare? Are there any books you'd want an inside scoop? Judith and I are the class Presidents so we might be able to work some magic.

Judith Graves March Blog Tour

Hey all you fine YA bloggers/reviewers, how's it going? I'm hoping to fill the entire month of March with blog spots and can't do it without you! Do you like paranormal YA? Wanna promote a newbie author? The Class of 2k10?

Looking for a guest post, interview or excerpt, want me and Weeping Willow to make a video-cast appearance? (Willow's my yellow lab, she's sooo not camera shy).

Then email the Leap Books Tour Coordinator, Lexie Northern, to book a spot today! leapblogtours@gmail.com

We have a winner of the Freaksville book contest.

I put everyone's name in a hat and the winner is....drum roll please....

The Book Pixie

I will send an email notifying the contestant of the win. To be fair, if I don't get a response by Friday Jan, 15th I will draw another name.

Congrats on winning a copy of Freaksville. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you to everyone who played. I will be having more contests so check back often. You guys rock!

Win Win Win a copy of Freaksville

To celebrate my release I am giving away a signed copy of Freaksville!
All you have to do is leave a comment on the Wolfy Chicks blog.
On Monday January 11th I will draw the winner. This is the first of many give-a-ways I have planned.

My novel Freaksville is up on amazon.com, and barnesandnoble.com and leapbks.com, due to the holiday overload it hasn't reached bookstores, yet. But it's still cause to celebrate, right!
