Hello, good people! It's that time again: time to submit your questions for next month's Erin Hunter chat. You will have the chance to chat live in real time with the Erins, but because the Erin Hunter chats tend to be pretty crowded, we started asking for people to submit questions in advance, to give everyone a chance to have a question answered.

Our next Erin Hunter chat has been scheduled for August 14, 2010. Victoria (Vicky) Holmes, Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, and Tui Sutherland, who write the Warriors and Seekers books under the name Erin Hunter, will be here to chat with fans and answer questions.

The chat will be held at the following times:

Eastern: 7:00pm
Central: 6:00pm
Mountain: 5:00pm
Pacific: 4:00pm
Arizona: 4:00pm

So for English class, we have this thing called "Writing Portfolio Project". Each week we have to write something 2 or more pages long that the teacher stamps on Tuesday. This is my third one. It's a found poem I made using the prologue of Midnight.

Night lay upon the forest
There was no moon, but the stars of Silverpelt
Shed their frosty glitter over the trees

Ok, I made a new Warriors RP site- Wait! Don't turn away yet. I need your opinions...

I know my previous sites are... dead and boring, but I'm determined to keep this one alive :D
So, yeah.... If you're not interested in joining, at least look around and tell me what I should add/fix to make it better.

Iceclaw(Q): Has Brambleclaw left Squirrelflight or are they still together just with some issues?

On June 27, 2009, the four writers who write the Warriors and Seekers series under the pseudonym Erin Hunter visited Wands and Worlds for an author chat. The four "Erins," as we call them - Victoria Holmes, Cherith Baldry, Kate Cary, and Tui Sutherland, are Wands and Worlds favorites, and this is the sixth Erin Hunter chat that we've hosted.

So, yeah. How'd you come up with yours?

If you don't use a warrior name here, then where did your username come from?

It's official: we're having another Erin Hunter chat! All four of the fabulous Erins: Vicky Holmes, Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, and Tui Sutherland, will be joining Wands and Worlds members on June 27, 2009, for an Erin Hunter chat to talk about the latest Warriors and Seekers projects!

Vicky Holmes will be in the U.S. next month for a tour to promote the release of Sunrise, the sixth and final book of Warriors: The Power of Three! She just sent me her preliminary schedule; more details will be coming soon. Here are the dates and locations of the tour:

Great news! I got an email from "Erin Hunter" Vicky Holmes, and she'll doing an Erin Hunter tour in the U.S. again this Spring!

Here's a blog post written by all four Erins, and Tui even mentions Wands and Worlds!

You may disagree with me, and if so, please don't yell at me. I'm not saying my way for Warrior names (and the way of a few other people) is the only way to do this.

There are two ways to do create Warrior names; the imaginative, out-of-the-cat-world way, and the simple, literal way. I'll try to cover both in this, but since I'm more for the literal names, I may not.

Brightspirit Relief Fund

The Brightspirit Relief Fund Auction site is now live! For those who don't know, I've been setting up the auction site for a charitable auction to be held online in memory of Emmy Grace Cherry, a 10-year-old Warriors fan who lost her life in a tornado in Arkansas in February. The auction will raise money for literacy, storm relief, and animal awareness.

My theory is that in TNP, the three stars are supposed to be Lionblaze, Hollyleaf, and Jayfeather. And, that StarClan chose Lionheart Yellowfang and Bluestar to come to Leafpool's dream because Lionblaze takes after Lionheart, Jayfeather is going to be a medicine cat, and I think that Hollyleaf will become clan leader. Makes sense dosen't it?

On August 16, 2008, the authors who write as Erin Hunter joined us once again for an author chat. This time, Tui Sutherland, who wrote Secrets of the Clans and Seekers, Book 1: The Quest Begins, joined us for the first time, along with veteran chatters Kate Cary, Vicky Holmes, and Cherith Baldry.

Hi everyone

Vicky emailed me to let me know that her Fall tour schedule is now up on the Warriorcats web site:

http://www.warriorcats.com

We figured out in the author chat that Lionpaw and Hollypaw's warrior names would be Lionblaze and Hollyleaf. I messed that up a little.

Sparrowheart: Loinblaze...
Sparrowheart: ::wacko
Magicyop: Loinblaze?!?!?!?!?!
Magicyop: ::ohmy
Sparrowheart: *Lionglaze
Ashtail: *Lion?
Magicyop: LIONGLAZE?
Sparrowheart: **Lionblaze
Ashtail: lol

A loin blazing on the grill...

Sorry if this causes another big debate that needs to be closed like the LeafXCrow theory.

Is Ashfur the traitor? That's for you to decide!

Here's Ashfur's profile on CoTC...

"You've heard his name before, haven't you? Have the StarClan elders fretted over his destiny, about where his path will lead now that he has lost Squirrelflight's affection?"
