Tour Silliness!


At the Tulsa signing (Kristin hiding behind BURNED. I'm taking the picture.
Jaclyn and and Kristin (not MY Kristin) in shirts they made! In Victoria, Canada, eh!
Cutie Avril in Victoria!

We had a great time on tour! Portland was lovely (oooh! shopping!). We stayed at The Nines hotel downtown. It was wonderful!!! And the Farmers' Market restaurant was To Die For.
Vancouver was great, too, and it was during our event (in a church - I worried about lightning strikes) that a very knowledgeable kid told Kristin and me about the buffet ferry from Vancouver to Victoria. As we were heading to Victoria the next day, we held a mini-Cast rebellion, went AWOL from the 6:00 am plane flight, and took the super cool ferry whilst we grazed through the buffet and gazed at the beautiful scenery. Below is video proof. Nope, I don't know why the dang thing turns sideways...
So now we're home for a little while. Off to the Books & Books on Grand Cayman Island May 15th.

    Hi there!
    I sent you a comment in your last post, but I figured I should ask here instead since It's maybe easiest to answer the comments here!!
    It's okay. But I'd really love to know the last names of Kramisha and Darius? Not for anything than my own curiousity. But the rest will be revealed in it's own time!
    I really love your books, and the faith in Nyx actuallyy makes me think of wicca. Also, I do have a feeling Kilona is not really all evil. It's gonna be intresting to se what happens to him!!!

  3. Hey!
    Glad you girls are enjoying your tour!
    Just wanted to say glad you girls were able to come to Portland.
    I know you probably don't remember me but it was great meeting you two.
    Something I'll never forget!
    Thank you and I love the House of Night Series!

    RE: Teresa.
    I doubt they ACTUALLY tatooed their faces. They probably just drew on them with marker or maybe facepaint.
    Hope that answers your question, even though I'm not P.C. :]

  5. Leonora - Darius and Kramisha don't have last names. They chose to change to just one name when they were Marked.

    Teresa - uh, no. People aren't tattooing their faces. They draw the "Marks" on with everything from lip/eye liners to face paint. Common sense, please.

  6. omg that is soo cool! Sounds like you had a great time there! I cannot wait until you are going to come to the UK :D I would draw the 'Marks' on myself, but my parents may flip lol!! Hope to see you soon,

  8. thanks PC!!
    i know i havent really used my brain a lot lately......lol....anyways thanks for the books your an amazing author!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  9. Teresa - DON'T ADMIT TO NOT USING YOUR BRAIN, child. Just start using it. A lot. You'll thank me in 10 years.

    Amber - I didn't post the site you sent me with the HoN products because they are ripping me off. None of those products are sanctioned by me, which means selling them without my permission is stealing from me. My attorneys are in the process of shutting all of that down. So, as a favor to me, please wait until you see shirts, etc., available through the www.houseofnightseries.com website and/or my www.pccast.net site to buy. Then you'll know they have my okie dokie. Of course the lovely Fire Goddess at www.firegoddess.com is my exclusive jeweler for cool HoN stuff.

  19. Hello there!

    My comment isn't related to this post, but I want to thank You for this world. <3 I love it, these are my favourite series. Love you, P.C. and Kristin. (:

  20. Hi Ang! It's the one that starts with phyl.

    Chantelle - I know you have only the best intentions, but writing for another author's world without being given permission to do so by the author is copyright infringement. And I have already written Zoey's Song and another from Kalona's point of view. So it's a nice thought, but I have the writing taken care of. I wish you all the best!

  21. :O oh my i really didn't know that i am so sorry!
    i bet yours are really good tho :)

    sorry :( :(

    p.s. oh yeah, any news of the UK tour dates yet? :D

  23. Happy Mother's Day, Ladies! I am LOVING ths book. I'm a second-generation Scot (Scots dad came over to the US in 1960) and the Scots-speak is wonderful, along with the settings.

    I am enjoying the repeat of multi-POV and the dialogue ties between the characters and chapters. I'm putting it down for the weekend, though, so I have a little left to enjoy before the wait for the next one. Blessed be.

    PS -- Took the ferry on that BC passage one time and had to buy clothes when I arrived because it was 20 degrees cooler in Victoria than Vancouver and I didn't have a jacket. Did you do high tea at the Fairmont?

  24. Okay email has been sent PC, I really truly loved BURNED, the series is getting more complex book by book. And I just love the mythology you bring to everything you write. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. ;)

  26. Hello I am Hanaa. I love your books! House of Night is my favorite series and I've been getting all of my friends to read them. I thought I would tell you guys how cool I think the books are becoming and it would be so cool if you guys visited Southern California on a tour. I would love to meet my favorite authors. Have a nice day (:

    ReplyDelete
  27. Well, to start off, I am indeed a descendent of the male sex and I have to say that I thoroughly love your novels. Your work is simply ravishing. As HanaaAlzoubi previously stated, it would be an honor for you to come down to Southern California (Riverside, Los Angeles, Orange County) or anywhere at your own convenience.

    Much Obliged,
    -Nathan Young

  28. Hi PC!
    I've read in some webs that in Oct 26th the Fledgling Handbook is gonna be published.
    I didn't give credit to them because I haven't read anything in your blog or in the official web but they even give the cover:
    http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--NjjtHO_1o/S-hxeXe_TgI/AAAAAAAAAcs/aGhOdF8SSag/s1600/hon.jpg
    So, I'd like you to tell me if that's truth or just another rumor, please
    xoxo
    ps: cool photos lol

  30. Hi! I hope I'm not too annoying: I'm reading Burned now and in chapter 9 there is an indication of Caoinic Shi...Who is that character and the fact is that I just can't find ANY information about this Caoinic Shi in the internet that is why I hope some one could help me and explain this to me...Thanks a lot!!!
    Nataliya

    ReplyDelete
  31. I can answer that for you, Nataliya!:) The Caonic Shi isn't a characater, it's a being who never rests, it's what they described Zoey would be if her soul hadn't gotten put back together. That's why in Burned, while she was in the Otherworld she was always moving in some way.

  32. Hi! I was just wondering how we could get possible movie ideas to whoever needed them. My friend got me started on the books and she and I have come up with the perfect cast. Could you please direct us to whoever we need to be directed to. Thanks for writing a great series and can't wait until the next one. ;P

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hi Nathan! Glad to hear from another male reader!

    Airis - Yes, THE FLEDGLING HANDBOOK will be released Oct 26h. I'll do an entire post on it pretty soon and give more details. Right now I'll just say it's super cool and illustrated! Oooh!

    Natalyia - As Haley explained, the Caoinic Shi is a being I made up. It's based on ancient Gaelic words that kinda mean fairy-like and ghostly. Then I changed them around. So, you won't find anything about them.

    Haley - thanks for helping!

    Candice - Michael Birnbaum at Empire Pictures is my producer. I'm sorry, I can't give out his contact information.

    ReplyDelete
  34. HaleyHON - oh, thank you so much for your explanation!

    PC Cast - thank you greatly, now I understand.

    The problem is that I am from Russia nad I read all the books in the original as I can't wait when they appear in Russian...
    That's why I've decided that Caoinic Shi was some mythological character...

    Thanks a lot,
    Nataliya

  37. hello there ms. cast,
    I was reading through the posts and saw that people are ripping you off by selling products with your logos and such on them.I also found a site with this content on it. If you'd like the link let me know. I think it is stupid of people to rip you off....you do not deserve it.

    Also, I just wanted to say i love your books. I can't wait to see were the story goes! Also will you be coming to Ontario at any time?
    Thanks!
    Your Fan,
