As many of you who follow us on Twitter know, we are trying to reach 8,000 followers to give away Season 2 of The Vampire Diaries on your choice of BluRay or DVD.

I had issues on my Supernatural twitter where not everyone that was supposed to be listed got listed. So I’ve decided to try something different.

After you tweet to your followers to follow us @xVampDiaries (don’t forget #TVDBloodFalls in your tweets), come back to this post and let us know you promoted us. Each time you do it, come back and post a comment. Include your Twitter ID in your comment so I know who you are! You can even include a link to your tweet showing us you promoted us!

You must be following us to qualify. Once we hit 8,000 followers (we’re very close), we’ll do a random draw with all the names in the comments and the list we have on our twitter (for the early entries).

Future contests will be done the same way! Good luck and thanks for your on-going support!!

I’m really excited to announce that we will be joining The VRO on Tuesday, March 15th at 9pm EST to talk about EyeCon and what we have planned for the time we’ll be in Atlanta. So make sure you join us. Click here to get info and find out where to listen, and follow us on Twitter (@xVampDiariesx) to find out when we go to air.

LiveStream

On Saturday, 1pm EST I will be doing a BlogTV livestream to talk about EyeCon, Blood Falls, Paws 4 a Cause and some TVD chatter. Please join us. I’ll be able to answer your burning questions. I’ll also be making a big announcement about a fundraising project we’re going to be doing very soon!

Please take a few moments to signup for a BlogTV account so you can chat with us and ask your questions.

Thanks to my lovely friend, Fram, our video archives now has a new layout. Very blue and very pretty. Fram designed our image gallery theme as well.

I suspect she’ll be doing our gallery themes for a while because I very much enjoy her work. Click on the preview image below to go visit our archive!

Dear Fans,

I wanted to bring you all up to date on the status of the project. Today, September 28, Ian Somerhalder tweeted about the project and a surge in bday greetings and donations swarmed my inbox.

I wanted to thank everyone for their devotion, beautiful messages, and very generous donations. This doesn’t mean that this needs to end here. Please continue with your messages and donations so we can surprise Ian with everything we fans can do. Now that he knows, it means we need to up our game plan a bit.

Remember, if you cannot donate, that is ok! You can still send in a wonderful birthday greeting!

I’d like to thank Vampire Diaries Online, Damonic and all the other wonderful sites for posting about our project.

Another thing I’d like to add is the cost to prepare Ian’s actual birthday package is going to be a little hefty. I am not using donation money to cover those costs. Do you see the donate button on the sidebar with the Ian Bday Project tab? If you are able to contribute a few dollars towards the birthday book, postage fees, stuffed animal and another surprise bday gift I’m adding to the package, then please do! I’d appreciate the help!

Thanks again for your help in everything everyone! It means the world to me and Nicki that you are being so wonderful!

We’ve had them open for a while, but now I’m officially launching it as part of the site. You can now join & participate in our forum discussions.

Last week, Nina Dobrev (@ninadobrev) pinched a nerve in her back and was ordered on bedrest. She spent the better part of last week tweeting about how much pain she was in.

Having been there personally, I thought it would be nice to send her something to cheer her up. On Friday, I had a small bouquet of flowers sent to her with a card reading:

“Dear Nina; Wishing you a very speedy recovery! With love from Natalie & your friends at the-vampirediaries.com – twitter.com/xVampDiariesx”

Today (September 20th), Nina returned to the set and happily announced on twitter that she got flowers and a scrapbook (from my friends at Nina Network) delivered to her. She posted a photo to show off her presents.

This isn’t the last of presents we’ll be sending to the cast members of the show. I thought Nina could use some cheering up because it really does suck being sick.

I’m pleased that the mission was accomplished and once again, I really hope she gets better super fast and that the flowers serve as a reminder to her that her fans love her very much and support her!

The lovely Nina Dobrev is featured on the October/November 2010 cover of Girls’ Life Magazine.

Paul Wesley is featured in the October 2010 issue of Maxim. He talks pajama pants, coffee tables, and Stefan having bigger balls in Season 2. Basically, it’s the best mini-Q&A ever.

I bet you did a double take, eh? Yes, you read right. You could win Season 1 of The Vampire Diaries on dvd or bluray. It’ll take a little work but I’m sure we can all do it together!

So here’s what you need to do:

1) Follow us on Twitter (@xVampDiariesx
2) Tell people, on twitter, to follow us.
3) And that’s it! Pretty simple, eh?

So when do we do a draw? We will draw once we hit 2500 followers. We currently have 1847 as I type this so we have a bit of a ways to go.

Anybody from any country can enter so long as amazon ships to your country.

How do you get an entry? Simple. Make sure when you tell people to follow us that you @ us to get your username listed. Even if you are listed, it doesn’t mean you can’t keep spreading the word. So get to it!

Good luck!
