Well, this is exciting! Creation Entertainment has a few interesting listings on their upcoming event schedule: two special events with Paul Wesley, one in Nashville this September and one in Chicago next April.
Details are pretty scant at the moment, with Creation’s website saying details to come, but cross your fingers extra hard. While we’re pretty sure Creation wouldn’t list the events unless they were 100% confirmed with Paul’s people, hopefully we’ll get more info/further confirmation soon.
NASHVILLE, TN

Huge thanks to the always awesome @melanoma27 for the heads up! And please keep in mind that all appearances like this are subject to change.

If you don’t have your tickets for EyeCon’s Vampire Diaries convention in Atlanta, March 25-27, you really should remedy that because the guest list just keeps growing with awesome. Michael Trevino has officially been added to the convention line-up. He will join previously announced guests Paul Wesley, Steven R. McQueen, Chris William Martin, and Rob Pralgo for North America’s very first TVD convention. And, according to the nifty press release EyeCon just sent out:
Also announced is the launch of a fan made film/video contest. Fans will have the chance to showcase their creativity to the crowd and win amazing prizes. Guidelines for the video are as follows: the videos must be less than 10 minutes and must be original works set in The Vampire Diaries universe. The winners will be shown for the crowd at the convention!
We couldn’t find anything about the contest on their website just yet, but we’re sure more details/guidelines will be forthcoming, so be sure you’re following EyeCon on Twitter and on Facebook.

The lovely @TVD_Chloe asked if we could point fans to Michael Trevino Online’s Birthday Project, in honor of Michael’s birthday on January 25th. Chloe will be editing together a video of birthday wishes from fans. If you want to participate, head over to MTO to get details on how you can submit. (Don’t have a camera? You can also sign his birthday card.) Deadline is January 18th.
For those of you attending EyeCon’s Vampire Diaries Convention in Atlanta, March 25-27, entertainment site FanBolt is putting together a Vampire Diaries fan party (not associated with the convention) for Thursday, March 24th, and are gauging interest. If you want to watch the March 24th episode of the show and hang out with your fellow fans (plus lots of other cool stuff), you can find more information on the FanBolt forums and let them know if you’re attending in this thread (please do let them know so they can get an accurate headcount!).
Finally, some of you may be aware, but in case you’re not – Jess and Bri of Vampire Stalkers / Mystic Falls Tours / The VRO suffered the sudden and terrible loss of Jess’ mother (and Bri’s grandmother) earlier this week. The family has no insurance and Jess has (quite understandably) had to postpone all MF tours so the family can grieve and make arrangements. If you would like to help the family, please consider making a donation via the PayPal button (in the left column) on the Vampire Stalkers website. Jess and Bri are wonderful people and deserve all the fandom support we can give them at this time. Red and I extend our deepest condolences.

Big thanks to Sounds Under Radio for sharing their own viewpoint of this past weekend’s Vampire Diaries Season 2 Hot Topic Cast Tour with us! As you all know by now, SUR is performing at each stop of the Tour (don’t miss them in Chicago this weekend and Miami next weekend!). A new version of their track “All You Wanted” (arguably one of the most memorable music placements of the first season) is on The Vampire Diaries: Original Television Soundtrack and features guest vocals from fellow TVD-featured artist Alison Sudol of A Fine Frenzy. You can follow them on Twitter at @SURtweet and on Facebook, and keep up with news on their official website.

Sara Canning (accompanied by Zach Roerig) was a presenter at last night’s 2010 Do Something Awards nominee event, where she presented one of five nominations. From DoSomething.org:
The Do Something Awards are about to rock social change. The Awards honor the best young world-changers, 25 and under, that are making the world a better place. They truly represent the pivotal doers in their field, cause or issue. And this year, they are getting the credit they deserve!
Find out more about the awards at DoSomething.org, see other nominees at VH-1, and check out photos of Sara on the red carpet over at JustJaredJr.

For those of you looking forward to TwiCon, which was set to be the first North American convention celebrating True Blood, Twilight, and The Vampire Diaries, we have some bad news.
TwiCon’s Twitter, @OfficialTwiCon, was deleted with no apparent statement on the cancellation, but according to a March 13th posting on their website:
After much thought, deliberation and best intentions to survive, TwiCon Partners LLC has made the difficult decision to cease operations. Competitive pressures, coupled with the persistent nature of the economic downturn, have necessitated this action. Both of the scheduled 2010 TwiCon events have been cancelled as a result of today’s decision.
They also state that ticketholders will receive information on refunds shortly.

Awards Show Network caught up with Candice Accola and Katerina Graham at the Golden Globes Young Hollywood Party to talk about their picks for this year’s Golden Globes. Candice name-checks 30 Rock, The Office, Modern Family, and Dexter as favorites, and Katerina is rooting for “everyone” (and mentions that Vampire Diaries has “amazing” fans).
Variety has a brief write-up on how the 2010 William S. Paley Television Festival is shaping up and Vampire Diaries (along with Glee, with more to be announced) is set to be honored at this year’s Fest.
Fox’s frosh hit “Glee” has been selected as one of the programs to be featured at the TV gabfest, which is set for Feb. 26-March 14. Fest is moving locations from the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood to the Saban Theater (formerly the Wilshire Theater) in Beverly Hills… Only one other show besides “Glee” has been announced. CW skein “The Vampire Diaries,” which airs at 8 p.m. Thursdays, will also be feted.
Finally, E!’s Watch with Kristin has a major, major spoiler for the return of Vampire Diaries in the new year (if you don’t wanna know, don’t read!):
Monica in Portland, Ore.: How great is Vampire Diaries? I thought I would hate it, but I’m obsessed. Do you know what big things they’re leading up to for the end of the season?
I can tell you that the writers actually aren’t going to wait until the end of the season to open the tomb with all the vampires and Katherine in it, and you know that’s gonna be good!
