Everyone's talking about the meaning of this very cute T-shirt.
For those of you who don't know, R.U.H? means Are You Haunted?, which does allusion to Jessica Verday's The Hollow.
What I don't know is the meaning of that 2 over the H. Hmmm.

3. Harlequin is having a HUGE, and when I say huge I mean massively giganticaly huge (I just made that up), contest in which you can win 10,000 dollars! And a complete Harlequin TEEN prize pack, including a copy of Intertwined, My Soul to Take, Elphame's Choice, an Intertwined t-shirt and a My Soul to Take t-shirt! Now that is amazing!
Unfortunately for me I can't enter, not being a US resident.
But if you live in the US, you most certainly need to enter now!

5. Kristi @ The Story Siren has posted a very funny vlog on her page, full of mistakes when trying to record a vlog for her IMM feature. I'm sure that most of the people who record this vlogs have had a few mistakes too. Go over to her blog and watch as she tries to make a cool vlog, but fails time and time again.

And Maggie Stiefvater has done the same over at her blog. But she was not recording for an IMM, but to show us the many things she can do, besides from writing. And it's HI-LARIOUS! Go and check it out!

6. Many congratulations to the nominees for the BBAW!

A lot of my favourite blogs have been nominated and I'm super happy for them!
I can't wait to see the final list of nominees!

7. (from popsyndicate.com):

And now for the best: Melissa Marr (Wicked Lovely), Alyson Noel (The Immortals series) and Kelley Armstrong (The Summoning) just might be the most incredible chicks ever. Not only do they represent three of the most popular teen authors, not only are they all New York Times Bestsellers, they’re all going on tour. Together.(!)

Got goose bumps yet? It gets so, so much better. In September of 2010, these three ladies are hitting the book tour circuit and eight different cities, and they’re bringing some of their friends. They call it the Smart Chicks Kick It tour, and here are just a few of the brilliant minds joining them: Rachel Vincent (The Morganville Vampires, Holly Black (The Spiderwick Chronicles, Tithe), Cassandra Clare (The Mortal Instruments) and so many more. For the constantly growing list, and to make a desperate plea to have the ladies hit your town, check out their Facebook page: http://bit.ly/FnTGV

I sooo wish I could be there!! Arghhhhhhhhh! Why do I live so far from these amazing people/events/book stores, signing, etc., etc.?

What have you been doing this week?
Are you going to enter these giveaways, cause you'd be a fool if you didn't!

xo,
