Heather Brewer Post on Bullying and then Michigan????????

 
I love Vladimer Todd books and Heather has the greatest mind as an author and a young adult mentor.  I wish I could do what she does so well.  She is a mastermind. 

Michigan and Penn State- WHAT is wrong with y'all.  As a mother, teacher and a human being...WHAT is wrong with you????????








Haikus and bullies and changes, oh my!
Look at that, Minions – I hadn’t been blogging regularly and now, you’re getting PUMMELED with my blogginess. Sick of me yet? I hope not. I do know, however, that many of you are sick of not being able to comment on my blog. There is, apparently, a bug that’s in need of fixing, so I’m sicking my web guru on the issue ASAP. Also, I’ll send along a list of awesome changes to the site. The forum is getting totally revamped, and the FAQ (plus several other parts of my site) are getting updated. I feel like I’ve been living under a rock, but now it’s time to do something about this mess. Somebody grab a broom, forcryingoutloud! And by “somebody”, I of course mean ME.
So, there are two reasons that I had to blog today. One is because we have winners to my latest contest! Jacob Coates, who’s thirteen and from Washington, is the grand prize winner of my haiku contest. He won an XBox360, with a skin that looks like the cover of FIRST KILL! And he did it with this fangtastic haiku tribute to Vlad:

tendancy to kill
tries his best to control it
on a strict diet

Looooove it! Plus, our two first place winners (Aubrey Peel – 16, from Florida, and Kayla Rupper – 16, from Utah) each win an autographed copy of FIRST KILL. Out of almost 400 entries, it wasn’t an easy pick, so congrats to the winners! If you have any ideas for future contests, just drop me a line. I’m always curious what the Minion Horde wants to win and how they want to win it.
Now…THIS. As a home-state Michigander, I am outraged, sickened, and disgusted. Spread the word, Minions. Because we can change the future, but we have to rally together in order to do so. Bullying has to STOP.
P.S. I love each and every one of you. *squish*
