I LOVE EDWARD PARTY IS FULL

Ok folks, the I Love Edward Party mentioned in the last two posts is filled. They even have a waiting list in case someone backs out last second.

Many thanks to Ellabelle, Twix, and Jazzygeorgie for organizing all of this. It should be quite the event.

If there are any questions as to whether you are on the list for the I Love Edward Party or not email Jazzygeorgie at [email protected]

The BYU symposium I beleive still has room available. This is their site http://ce.byu.edu/cw/wbfyr/

BYU I love edward filling fast

Like I said in yesterday’s  post the spots for the BYU I Love Edward Party are going fast and on a first come first serve basis. As of right now, there are approximately 10 spaces left.

Make sure you check out this post and verify that you are on the list if you have contacted Jazzygeorgie about attending the party.

You can email Jazzygeorgie at [email protected] for reservations or with questions.

BYU Update, There is now an I Love Edward Party too

On Friday, February 2nd from 6-9pm there will be an I LOVE EDWARD CULLEN party at the Provo City Library. The cost is $10 for food and numerous goodies that will be provided! Lexiconer Jazzygeorgie is heading this up along with Twix and Elbelle. Don’t miss out if you are planning to attend. There is a limited amount of space so act today!

They have a room that will fit 48 people and right now they have (including Stephenie and her guest) 16 that have said they will attend. Please email Jazzygeorgie at: [email protected] with your first and last name and if you are going. The deadline to let her know who is coming is January 20th, but be aware it is first come first serve and spots may fill before that. So, no complaining if you wait until the last minute only to find out there are no spots left! 

Also, on February 3rd there will be a get together for dinner most likely at the Brick Oven for any fans who attended the symposium. We will mention this to Stephenie, but I believe she has another function to attend that night. If anyone is interested in this dinner please email me so we can get a count ready to tell the Brick Oven when we go. They don’t take reservations.

The website for the BYU event is again: http://ce.byu.edu/cw/wbfyr/

Prom Nights from hell

In case, like me you just received a bunch of gift cards to bookstores, here’s a suggestion.

The Prom Nights From Hell, a book of prom oriented short stories featuring authors such as Meg Cabot (of Princess Diaries fame), Stephenie, and other YA authors, is now available for pre-order from both Amazon and Barnes and Nobel. You can see there is a bit a of pricing war going on there. Amazon has the paperback for $9.99 while Barnes and Nobel has it for $8.99. Currently Barnes and Nobel is also advertising a hardback version for $12.23 which is not a bad deal on a hardcover book at all.

The book is also available for our English speaking European fans at Amazon UK and our Canadian fans via Amazon Canada

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

BYU Event

As Stephenie has mentioned on her site, she will be at her Alma Mater, BYU, taking part in the Midwinter Symposium on Books for Young Readers.  It should be noted that this event does cost money as it can be used for college credit should you be interested in fullfilling certain requirements.  So this is not a free event. 

Jazzygeorgie and a few others are putting together a meet-up for Lexiconer attending. Right now plans for a dinner are in the works on Saturday, February 3, 2007.  You do not need to go to the Symposium to meet up for dinner.  All Twilight fans in the area are invited.

There is also the possibility of a I Love Edward Party at another time, but that is still in the works.

If you are interested in meeting up for the dinner contact Jazzygeorgie by Jan 15 so she can get a headcount. You can email here here [email protected]

If you are flying in for the event the Marriott at the Provo Convention Center has a good rate if you mention that you are there for the conference.

Chat is moving…again

Sorry everyone, but we have had to move the chatroom to a new location. The company that currently hosts chat is discontinuing the service as of January 1, 2007. So the new location of chat is right here. The link has also been added to our navigation sidebar.

Pel

I would like to add a word of advice about the new chat room.  When you first log into the chat, you will get the most annoying pop up box alerting you every time a message is posted.  To get rid of this box, simply right click in the chat room window and select the popup reminder to turn it OFF!  trust me.  You will go mad if you don’t do this right away.

Nashville Forks-Casts

At long last the files have been converted, uploaded, and are now available for your listening amusement.  In other words, I finally got around to posting the podcasts, or as we like to call there here Forks-Casts, we did about Nashville.  You can find them along with previous episodes here.

The first Nashville one is a little long in downloading, but hopefully worth the wait.

I also want to remind everyone that I just added male focused and Jacob focused items to the Cafepress Lexicon Shop so please check it out.

The Eclipse Prom Update

Stephenie’s website is updated with the correct date for the Eclipse Prom. It will officially be May 5, 2007 with the exact times and site in Phoenix TBA. Now what is a Prom without a prom favor? Stephenie had this to say on her website, and it’s way better than the typical cheesy prom beer mug.

The Eclipse Prom will officially be held on May 5, 2007. The time will be announced later, but it will probably in the afternoon. Also for sure: I’m going to be allowed to read the first chapter of Eclipse "

I’m editing this message to address a few comments some of you have said below.  The Lexicon WILL NOT have a recording of any reading Stephenie does for this evevnt – or for any event.  We will not have a copy of the chapter posted anywhere on the website.  I’m sure Stephenie will post chapter one of Eclipse on her web site the same way she has posted other items in the past.  You will have to install Adobe Reader to access the information.  The reason being that this is copywrited material and she wants to prohibit unauthorized copies of text from being created.
