A brief update on our World Domination goals

Greetings, Minion Horde! Now, as you all know (or should know), Auntie Heather is plotting to take over the world (with the assistance of my Minions, of course). And I'm pleased to say that we are making some amazing progress so far.

To date, here are the countries that we have taken over with our powers of awesomeness:

United States

United Kingdom

Australia

Germany

France

Italy

Not too shabby, Minions! If you're from any of the listed countries, please watch the shelves for Vlad, and feel free to bug booksellers and librarians about when the books will be headed your way.

And now you crazy Minions have ID cards!!! Go check 'em out. Print them, laminate them, bring them to events so I can sign them. They are yours, Minions – so show the world you're a Minion!

More reasons to celebrate: the first book of The Slayer Chronicles is going to copy edits! For all intensive purposes, this means that the book is finished, apart from a few minor tweaks. The other day I saw the cover and it is GORGEOUS. It's kick-butt enough for you guys, and swoon-worthy enough for your girls (or vice-versa: Auntie doesn't judge). A cover reveal and a title reveal will be coming soon!

Also, a word on the plush Auntie Heather winner. I'm not telling them that they won. I'm merely whisking her off in her tiny coffin to surprise the winner. Today. But I was very impressed by all of your entries.

And…I'm kinda in the mood for a……

SPONTANEOUS MINI-CONTEST!!!

Comment to enter (doesn't matter how much you comment – you're only entered once). Winner gets something awesome. Suggestions?
