Also, speaking of Borders, we have something very awesome coming up with them.

After the Comic Con panel is over there is going to be an awesome event at a nearby Borders. Details coming as the event gets closer.

The event will not only feature our site but also Kimmy from His Golden Eyes, Kara “Team Switzerland” from Twilighters Anonymous, Matt and Andrew from Twilight Source/Imprint Podcast, Kallie and Kassie from Twilight Series Theories. Kudos to Kallie for being our organizational genius. If you haven’t checked out a TST podcast, make sure you do. Kallie and Kassie are just the right mix of sass and fun.
