Fan Art: Get out of my head.
A great visual represantation of Sookie with a smile pasted on her face, engulfed in the almost suffocating thoughts of others. Thanks to Honeko, posted on Deviant Art.

I’ll admit, I’m not a huge fan of dolls.
But I’ll admit that I squee-ed just a little (okay, a lot) when a random search for “Sookie” turned up these adorable custom-made Sookie Blythe dolls by Lawdeda. There’s Sookie in a grey Merlotte’s sweatshirt and denim cutoffs, sundress Sookie, and Sookie in her Merlotte’s waitress uniform tending to customers!
The rest of the collection featured on her website opens up a world of wide-eyed dolls with rainbow colored hair, dainty dresses, and knit hats — Lawdeda works closely with JennyCouture to create the clothing on many of her custom dolls. A look at the custom pricing list reveals not only the limitless possibilities that exists for a custom-made doll by Lawdeda — it’s a testament to the painstaking attention to detail that she puts into her creations.
And if you’re wondering how much a custom-made Sookie Blythe doll might cost you, Lawdeda’s custom-made dolls have gone anywhere from $250 – $1,200. Lawdeda is putting Sookie up for auction on Ebay at the end of this month, so I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!
**Sookie Blythe is a custom by Lawdeda. See all of Lawdeda’s customs here at http://www.lawdedas.com.
My Twitter BFF, @TaraMaeThornton made these pics of Sookie and Lettie Mae. Can I just say that I love the quotes that she chose?
Guys, this was a tough one to judge. I had half a mind to just open up the True Blood swag bag, divvy up the parts and send the bag to one person, Living Dead in Dallas to another, the notebook to someone else, and t-shirt to whomever. But I didn’t.
The winner of the Four songs for the Fellowship basement contest is: Alison! Congratulations! Alison’s playlist featured songs that captured the emotions that Sookie might be going through both at the musical, as well as the lyrical level.
Here’s her list:
1) “Something is Not Right With Me” by Cold War Kids
(This song is about what I’d imagine Sookie’s feeling while imprisoned, and in the whole infiltraion situation. And that Bill won’t accept her telepathic “call.’)

2)”Sundress” by Ben Kweller
(reflects how I imagine Bill thinks of Sookie, which is what you’d think about if you’re waiting to be rescued, plus there’s the whole “I’ll do anything you want me too” sentiment.)

3)”Ballad of Human Kindness” by The Dears
(I think more than anything else Sookie feels betrayed by Hugo, and she feels alone. Sure, she’s angry, but she’s still more likely to feel morally superior than murderous.)

4) “The Bitch Went Nuts” by Ben Folds
(accurate term for Hugo’s traitorism and the FotS mindset, It’s better than just “Help!” Goes with Sookie dropping the f-bomb…)

If you’ve been following my blog, you might have caught @unikissa’s amazing speedpainting of Eric Northman. Well her latest piece captures True Blood S2, E6’s blink and miss it moment — Eric’s single blood tear as he walks away from Stan and Isabel. You can view @unikissa’s other speedpaintings on YouTube, as well as her online gallery at http://www.unikissa.com.
A big kiss to everyone who participated in the Four songs contest. I’ve gone through the lists, and I’m finishing up the blog post and links.
Winners will be announced tomorrow morning.
