Hello all!

UPDATE 10/31/2015 – And the winners are:

Carla White
Lynda Foley
Michele Morris

Congratulations to our winners and thank you to everyone that supported this event!

==============================
For the past few years , our friends at Creation Entertainment have very kindly donated, for our Halloween Event, two Copper Weekend Passes to attend “J2LA” aka Creation’s Salute to Supernatural in Los Angeles.  This year they didn’t do that.

They donated THREE PAIRS OF COPPER WEEKEND PASSES to attend J2LA 2015! This year, Creation Entertainment’s Supernatural Convention is taking place in Pasadena, CA, on November 13-15, 2015! And guess what? You can win one of these pairs of passes!

Like last year, we want everyone to have a chance to win, so we are having an online drawing to give them away.  Proceeds will go to Kids Need To Read, the benefiting charity of the 2015 Whedonopolis Halloween Event featuring Joss Whedon. Each pair of these passes are a $500 value and you could win them for a mere $20 investment.




 

This convention has it all!

Scheduled guests include Jared Padalecki (Sam Winchester), Jensen Ackles (Dean Winchester), Misha Collins (Castiel), Mark Sheppard (Crowley), Richard Speight, Jr. (The Trickster/Gabriel), Matt Cohen (Young John Winchester), Rob Benedict (Carver Edlund/Chuck Shurley), Ruth Connell (Rowena), Osric Chau (Kevin Tran) and recently announced Jeffrey Dean Morgan! John Winchester, himself! Plus many more!

Here’s what’s included with the Copper Weekend passes-

1) Excellent guaranteed reserved seating in the theatre all 3 days where you will see all the guest stars on stage and enjoy the wonderful host/MC Richard Speight, Jr. and house band Louden Swain plus all the great performers appearing live mentioned elsewhere on the site!

2) Complimentary admission to our “SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL” CONCERT starring LOUDEN SWAIN featuring lead singer Supernatural’s own ROB BENEDICT and special SUPERNATURAL celebrity guest stars performing: MARK SHEPPARD, MATT COHEN, RICHARD SPEIGHT, JR., OSCRIC CHAU, tentatively RUTH CONNELL and others to be announced. You keep your same great Copper located seats you have for the day for this event as well! Performers are tentative and subject to change. THESE EVENTS ARE THE TALK OF FANDOM BECAUSE THEY ARE LITERALLY THE BEST SHOW EVER DONE AT A FAN CONVENTION, and IT’S FREE TO YOU AS A COPPER ATTENDEE!

3) Collectible laminate signifying your Copper Status at the convention

4) Pre-Registration on the night prior to the convention and on the first day so you can get your credentials earlier than others and also get one of the first cracks at the souvenirs (after Gold and Silver) . This benefit in terms of the night before sometimes but rarely varies due to facility needs which we don’t find out about until the last minute.

5) Admission to the vendors area, of course

6) Admission to our famous Karaoke Kings Concert Party Night event! If you haven’t attended one of these get ready to LAUGH, SING AND ENJOY! Truly a night to remember, starring The Karaoke Kings Richard Speight, Jr. and Matt Cohen plus special guests including singer Rob Benedict and, usually those appearing Friday, but not always! Please note that front chairs are removed for this event, so it is not a seated affair which means that we do not have reserved seating for this. Check the Creation website for the theme of this event!

Please note that COPPER WEEKEND packages DO NOT INCLUDE any AUTOGRAPHS or PHOTO OPS, those must be ordered separately if desired.

And oh, the karaoke! If you’ve never seen Lucifer sing “Sweet Transvestite,”… Well, you should! (See it here.)

You can still purchase photo ops taken by Photography King, Chris Schmelke. Believe me, this is something you want to do! And since a picture is worth a thousand words, here are a couple thousand words to prove my point.

The post Review & Contest: Seventh Grave and No Body by Darynda Jones appeared first on Six Degrees of Geek.

]]>
The latest book in the Charley Davidson series, Seventh Grave and No Body, is finally out today! The book, which follows Sixth Grave on the Edge, is even better than the previous one. In this book, Charley starts off almost exactly where Sixth Grave left off. Only now, Charley has to deal with an ex-BFF who won’t stop haunting, the twelve hell hounds chasing her down, and her fiancée, Reyes, being even more overprotective than normal. To top it off, Charley’s father has disappeared without a trace, and she discovers, via the investigation he’s been working on, that she might have to question everything she’s ever known about him. There have also been a lot of suicides with no bodies left that have the authorities completely perplexed.

***SPOILERS BELOW***

This book opens with the information that we learned at the very end of Sixth Grave. Now, the goal is to keep everything dealing with that situation going well while dealing with the external world. Here is where the first bit of conflict that goes throughout the book comes up. From the beginning, Reyes makes it his duty to keep an even closer eye on Charley, and being the independent woman that she is, Charley tries to resist his efforts at being a 24/7 body guard. She’s also more testy than usual due to the lack of caffeine in her system (due to her own choice to go off the stuff cold turkey). Poor Reyes. Poor friends and family of Charley. Then there’s the issue of the twelve hell hounds that have been released and their goal to get Charley. The biggest problem with this is that no one, and that includes Reyes, knows how to kill them.

A lot happens in this book, to the point that I’m a bit scared to say much of anything because I don’t want to spoil any readers. I will say that I’m more interested than ever in Mr. Wong and what’s going on with him. I can’t wait until we find out! The plot dealing with Charley’s ex-BFF was a bit irritating (due to the ex-BFF’s personality), but I liked how it was resolved. I really enjoyed the plot dealing with a newswoman who is a bit obsessed with Reyes. Charley has a bad feeling about her, as does Reyes, and when you find out why, the reveal is a bit shocking (and a lot of fun to read). I also loved the interactions with Charley’s best friend Cookie and her daughter Amber. Those two characters are so essential to the series, and I love how they deal with Charley. My only complaint with this books is that I miss the edge Reyes used to have. However, he is settling down into the life he now has, so it’s understandable that the sharpest edges of his character are being slightly smoothed in preparation of what’s coming next.

The ending of the book is simultaneously my favorite and least favorite thing about the series. I love how Charley and Reyes’ relationship comes together, as well as the gift that she gives him. When it comes time for Reyes to share some info he’s promised Charley shortly afterward, I love the tenderness of the moment. It’s so well done.

Seventh GraveOne of my favorite things as a reader is how Darynda balances the serious portions of the book with the humorous, with no scenes losing power due to that balance. This was most definitely the case when it came to Seventh Grave and No Body. I was laughing so hard I nearly cried during some parts of the book (I’ll leave you to discover those on your own.) At other moments, including a death I really wasn’t expecting, I cried. I was also left entirely frustrated by the ending of the book. I don’t know if I can wait until Eighth Grave After Dark comes out to find out what happens next!

In order to best enjoy Seventh Grave and No Body, I highly recommend reading at least Sixth Grave on the Edge first, if not all the previous books in the series. Sixth Grave has a lot of points that lead directly into Seventh Grave, and I assume that the same will be true for Eighth Grave as well. You can purchase your own copy of Seventh Grave and No Body from Amazon, iTunes, and Barnes & Noble.


Below is an excerpt from Seventh Grave. It’s a tiny taste of the fun that the Charley Davidson series is, so enjoy!

Strawberry stood there, petting a ragged Barbie doll with its hair chopped off in large chunks. Which wasn’t creepy at all. Poor Malibu Barbie. All her Malibu friends would be horrified. Taft told me his sister had always cut off her dolls’ hair. A fact that kind of scared me. I did have to sleep occasionally, and the thought of a departed child in dire need of therapy cutting my hair in my sleep did nothing to ease my mind as I fell into oblivion.

“Why am I in trouble this time?” I asked her, kneeling down and wiping a smudge off her cheek. She really was quite beautiful. It pained me to imagine who she would have become, given the chance. For the life to be ripped away from someone so young just seemed so terribly, terribly unfair.

“Because you’re going to die soon.”

On second thought, maybe she was better off. Away from other people and most sharp objects. I had a sneaking suspicion she would have become a serial killer. Or a telemarketer. Either way.

“Well, I’m hoping I don’t.”

“I hope you do. You can live with us.”

“She is adorable,” Jessica said, kneeling beside me. “What’s your name?”

Strawberry frowned. “I can’t talk to strangers. And I especially can’t tell them my name is Becky. Or that I’m nine. Or that—”

“Have you seen Rocket?” I asked, interrupting. We’d be there all day.

This series is also released as audiobooks. Listen to a sample below.

The post Enter to Win Two Books in the Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost!- CONTEST ENDED appeared first on Six Degrees of Geek.

Jeaniene FrostI have been a fan of vampire romance novels for a long time. In reading a lot of stories, I discovered Jeaniene Frost and her books. When I found her books, I fell in love and have been addicted ever since. Jeaniene’s main characters in the Night Huntress series, Cat Crawfield and Bones, are unbelievably interesting and have fantastic adventures. My discovery of this book series has led to me purchasing each new book on the release date, and reading it the moment I was first able to. The final book in the series was released on January 27th, and I’m to have the opportunity to share my love of this incredible series with a new fan.

Thanks to the kindness and generosity of author, Jeaniene Frost, Whedonopolis has signed copies of the first and second book in the Night Huntress series to give away!

In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Buffy, can kick butt any day of the week, and still be “just a girl.” Cat, like Buffy, can kick butt and take names, all while maintaining her femininity. She doesn’t need a man in her life, but appreciates having one at her side who works with her.  The series’ male lead, Bones, is in many ways similar to Spike from Buffy. Like Spike, Bones is a bleached blonde vampire with exquisite cheekbones. Both are also British, very snarky and  want women who are strong and fully able to defend themselves. I love both characters equally, and wish they could exist in the same world. If you’re a fan of Buffy, you will love these books and probably join me in wishing that you could join in on the hijinks that Cat and Bones get into.

So, how do you enter to win these lovely signed books? It’s very easy! Send us a tweet telling us who your favorite vampire of all time is with the hashtag #NightHuntressContest and you will be entered to win! The winner will be chosen randomly from all entries.  The contest will be open until February 14th at 11:59 PM PST. Winners will be contacted via DM.

Good luck to all who enter and welcome to the world of the Night Huntress!

Are you a fan of Sarah Michelle Gellar who wants to have your creative graphic work featured on Sarah’s Twitter page? Then be sure to check out this contest, which is open to everyone and was sent to us by the lovely Sarah herself:

Hi everyone,

Sarah here:

I wanted to do something fun when I reached 100,000 twitter fans but it’s hard to have a contest with only 140 characters, so I decided to ask my friends at Whedonopolis to host the contest info.

And thank you all for the 100k follows on twitter!!!

Good Luck and I can’t wait to see all the creativity!!!

XOXO,

SMG

Here’s how the contest works:
You create a background for Sarah’s Twitter page and post it on Twitter with the hashtag #SMGTwitterContest, so SMG can see your work.  She will then pick a background design and a profile banner to use as her Twitter profile until she hits her next 100k followers.  A cool prize from the set of The Crazy Ones… and maybe even Buffy, will go to the creator(s) of the winning design.

 

Deadline: November 15

 

Guidelines:
Background banner: 1600 pixels wide x 1200 pixels tall 
If you plan on creating a background sidebar to go along with your background, create an image with dimensions around 235 pixels wide x 700 pixels tall and place your sidebar in the upper-right hand corner of your background when you’re finished.
Profile Banner: 520x 260 Save both as a PNG file.Try it on your twitter to be sure it fits correctly.
No tiled images please! Be creative and use your imagination!

 

The designer of the chosen graphics will be contacted by a private, third party to email the original images.Feel free to add “Created by: @(your twitter handle)” in the bottom corner. (We want you to take credit for the design.)

Here are some links that should help with getting the dimensions right:

These tickets are very special and we want everyone to have a chance to win, so we are having a separate drawing to give them away.

And the winner is

Norm Cook (@scrooge3)

Norm and a guest will ride in comfort on board the 1st Annual Whedonopolis Party Bus (WootWoot!). On their trip they will enjoy on board snacks, games, prizes and assorted audio-visual entertainment.

“See, Kelly”  you say, “I told you I never win anything!”

Yes. Yes, you did.

But, never fear!

A very limited number of seats are still available on the Party Bus! (WootWoot!) for a mere $65 per person (lower cost than Amtrak or driving down and paying for parking).  And because this is Fandom Charities, a portion of the price is tax-deductible!  Just email Kelly at [email protected] with the subject line “Party Bus (WootWoot!)” and I will send you the details.

And who knows. That unlucky streak could be broken on board the Party Bus (WootWoot!)!

See you there!

Kelly
Party Bus Cruise Director

This just in!

Fandom Charities/Whedonopolis has received a very generous donation from Write Bros. (@Write_Brothers) of 2 DVD copies of Movie Magic Screenwriter 6 (a nearly $500 value) as prizes on the Whedonopolis Party Bus (WootWoot!)!

Ever wanted to write your own screenplay?  This program can help you get started!  It can be used for film, TV, animation and comic book scripts and works on both Windows and Mac.  Write Brothers will be at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con in Booth 1429.

ALL ABOARD! Win a Free Ride to San Diego on the Whedonopolis Party Bus! (WootWoot!)

Comic-Con is fast approaching and we are all looking for the best/most stress-free way to get down to San Diego. Fandom Charities/Whedonopolis has the answer!

The Whedonopolis Comic-Con Party Bus! (WootWoot!)

Our journey begins early morning Weds, July 17th, picking up in Encino, then West LA, arriving in downtown San Diego around noon.

We return on Sunday evening leaving San Diego evening and drop off at the same locations in Encino and LA that we picked up at, arriving at approximately 10pm.

That’s right! You and a friend could enjoy riding in comfort on the maiden voyage of the Whedonopolis Comic-Con Party Bus! (WootWoot!)

Amenities on the bus include:
–     20″ TV w/ DVD player
–     drinks and snacks
–     games & prizes
–     someone else is driving (Marsia’s favorite amenity)

And it wouldn’t be Whedonopolis without some surprises, including a drawing to take place during the trip!

But wait! I said free, didn’t I? That’s right! Whedonopolis/Fandom Charities is giving away 2 round-trip tickets to one lucky winner. It could be you!

But how?

I’m glad you asked!  To enter just do three things. First, if you don’t have a Twitter, sign up (it’s easy and free). Second, follow @Whedonopolis on Twitter. Finally, tweet the message: “Enter the @Whedonopolis #SDCCPartyBusContest Click thru for info  http://tinyurl.com/WhedonopolisPartyBusContest” You can either copy and paste the message or RT it, as we will be tweeting it from @Whedonopolis. The contest ends on July 10th, 11:59pm PST and a random retweet will be chosen. The winner will be announced that week.

“But, Kelly, I want to ride the Whedonopolis Party Bus (WootWoot!), but I never win anything!” you say.

Don’t you worry your pretty little head.  A limited number of seats are available to our lovely, loyal fans for a mere $65 per person (lower cost than Amtrak or driving down and paying for parking). And because this is Fandom Charities, a portion of the price is tax-deductible! Just email Kelly at [email protected] with the subject line “Party Bus (WootWoot!)” and I will send you the details.

See you on the Party Bus (WootWoot!)!
