Blog Stuff || New Winner of The Dead

Hey there, so instead of something actually interesting, this is a mashup of things I'm thinking of right now. I'm not much for saying much about any one thing, so it's all just a mess. Enjoy!


The Future of my Weekly Newsletter

Okay, so a handful of you who have subscribed to my weekly giveaways newsletter, which also includes information about upcoming releases, bookish news and the like... Well, I'll be starting that again for the 7th of November! If you'd also like to receive a weekly newsletter (you can unsubscribe at any time), send me an email!

Um, and also...I'd much appreciate it if you were to follow my blog, as well. If you're lazy, here's what you can send me, and I'll add you to my list. :)

Dogs and Books

So, all the BEST authors/bloggers/readers own dogs, or pets. My family and I have had Tofu, a cream/white Maltese x Shih Tzu puppy (birthday 30th May 2010), for 3 weeks now. He likes to bite a lot, and is very "exciteable" when he is awake. I'm glad that my bookshelf is on my table, since THEN, especially at this "teething" stage (he's lost almost all his baby teeth now), so he can't get to my books. There are horror stories out there—library books, homework, personal books EATEN. Ripped to shreds. A horrid demise to "words on paper".
       So, to those who have animals and books & bookshelves all the way to the floor . . . have your dogs/pets ever pawed or clawed their jaws into one of your books? If so, I want photos. :P

The new winner of The Dead is...
 
#49

BLURB:

Lazarus Stone is about to turn sixteen when, one night, his normal life is ripped to shreds by a skinless figure drenched in blood. He has a message: The Dead are coming.

Now Lazarus is all that stands in their way. To fulfill his destiny, he must confront not only the dark past of his family, but horrors more gruesome than even Hell could invent. And it all begins with the reek of rotting flesh...

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Hope you enjoy it, Julie! Reply back within 48 hours and I'll get it sent pronto!

Also, those who are expecting something, I've got everything packed and ready to go. It'll be either tomorrow, or Wednesday.

Between the Lines

Lastly, I was quoted at BETWEEN THE LINES (Penguin Australia) for my review on You Wish by Mandy Hubbard. One day, I hope to be quoted on an actual book! That'd be a dream. :DD

It would be so very awesome to get quoted on a book :D
That's so cool you were quoted by Between the Lines, congratulations!

I love the name Tofu so cute, I bet he's adorable. I have a miniature schnauzer (the beardy dogs) called Gus he'll be 4 on boxing day, he was a real shit when he was a puppy, he chewed everything including one of my books when I left it on my bedroom floor (stupid I know)! He also happened to jump up and chew my really expensive collectable teddy I got in Germany which you can't get here! He also destroyed a photo album luckily though it was only new so we hadn't put photos in it yet. Unfortunately I don't have any photo of his destruction, but he's so much better now. Everytime we go out though we do have to lock the pantry door now because when he was younger he worked out how to open the door and chewed through the cat crunchie bag and ate them all (we then got a lock on the pantry), so he can't really be trusted with food, other stuff however such as books he won't chew anymore.

Well I linked a photo of Tofu, in case you didn't see it. :P Ooh! I love those beardy dogs. They're cute. Hehe. Glad to know that he's better now! I only have schoolbooks on the floor, so it's all good if my dog tears them to shreds. Ha!
Hi Cass! Sorry to hear about the puppy teething issues. I've gone through that before, and it ain't pretty. LOL I think the two worst teething moments for me were when my dog ate (and I mean, DEVOURED) my clay figurine shadow box-thing that was a book report of English class. I think my report was on Call of the Wild, so I thought that was a bit ironic for her to destroy. Haha, the second one was when I returned home from school and she had eaten a hole in the wall! I mean, a HUGE hole in the wall. My parents' facial expressions were pretty entertaining, now that I think about it. ;)

Also, I wanted to thank you for the comment on my blog about Gracie. She will be greatly missed, and I really appreciated it. :)

Have a great week!

Congrats on the quote, Cass!!

Just wanted to let you know that I've given you an award at my blog, for being absolutely amazing!

Between the lines is a great start and I'm sure you will be quoted on an actual book one day. Congratulations on the award you just received at TinaBookCouture. Also... am not much of a photographer so won't send a photo, but my cat, Chino, loves to sit on top of the pages that are a work in progress and watch me writing. Mostly he's quite polite and content to behave himself, but sometimes he does like to tear the ms, and I have to shoo him away.
That book looks Freaky, YAY to the winners
You have an award at my blog for being simply amazing! http://thethoughtsofabookjunky.blogspot.com/2010/...
