Mortal Instruments Fan of the Month: December

 Introducing: Lara Helmer

                                        Month of: DECEMBER

                                             Mini Showcase: 

Lara has written her own mini Bane Chronicle based on her city. She plans to write more mini Bane Chronicles because, as she states, "There's still at least 700 years of Magnus' life left uncovered, even after TMI, TID, and TBC." Below is an excerpt of her Bane Chronicle:

"At a time that turned out to be crucial to his future path, Magnus ended up in Tanzania, however, the question becomes: why was Magnus in Tanzania in the first place?"

Lara was in a cosplay parade for the Calgary Comic Con & Entertainment Expo. before there were any temporary tattoos out to use as runes, and before there was a Hot Topic Mortal Instruments line. Lena Headey was at the Expo., motivating Lara to specifically dress up as Jocelyn Fray. Plus, how many shadowhunters took photos with Star Wars bounty hunters, or Iron Man? View these awesome photos below! 

Lara had started a fan site for Jamie Campbell Bower! She is still working on it and says that "there's a bit of an associated twitter and tumblr. I'm struggling with getting it going because I want it to be a site that Jamie would be cool with and he has such strong views on judging others, gossip, paparazzi, privacy invasion etcetera.  It's a challenge to think of what I could put up that he hasn't put up himself that he would be happy to see online." -We're sure your fan site will make JCB happy! 

Check out her fan site Bower Power, also on TUMBLR and TWITTER!

Name: Lara

Age: 32

From: Calgary, Canada

Favorite TMI Book: City of Glass (As happy an ending as we get in the series)

Favorite Character: Magnus because he's got so much depth to him.  We see so many sides, so many aspects of him but there's always more.  The Bane Chronicles have been fantastic for showing more but there's still so much mystery - probably 800 years worth.

Favorite Quote: "He leaned against the door frame, ignoring the kick of adrenaline the sight of her produced. He wondered why, not for the first time. Isabelle used her beauty like she used her whip, but Clary didn't know she was beautiful at all."  -City of Bones 

Favorite Fan Moment: On Canada's Inner Space hour special on the Space Channel for the TMI Movie, my question was one of three asked to Jamie, Lily and Kevin.  That was pretty exciting for me because while we don't have the mall tours in Canada and I'm the opposite side of the country from Toronto, I got to in a way be the focus of the cast for a moment.

Mortal Instruments Fan of the Month: November

Introducing:  Hayley Hemming  

Month of: NOVEMBER 

Mini Showcase: 

Hayley was originally going to draw something, but for the sake of time she created a few Mortal Instruments collages:

Hayley dressed up as a Shadowhunter: 

Heart by Heart is a song by Demi Lovato that is in soundtrack for The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. "This song describes Jace and Clary perfectly and I cannot stop listening to it. The lyrics and tune are haunting and it takes you straight into the heart of City of Bones." - Hayley Hemming. 

When your soul finds the soul it was waiting for
When someone walks into your heart through an open door
When your hand finds the hand it was meant to hold
Don't let go
Someone comes into your world
Suddenly your world has changed forever

No there's no one else's eyes
That could see into me
No one else's arms can lift
Lift me up so high
Your love lifts me out of time
And you know my heart by heart

When you're one with the one you were meant to be find
Everything falls in place, all the stars align
When you're touched by the cloud that has touched your soul
Don't let go
Someone comes into your life
It's like they've been in your life forever

No there's no one else's eyes
That could see into me
No one else's arms can lift
Lift me up so high
Your love lifts me out of time
And you know my heart by heart

So now we've found our way to find each other
So now I found my way, to you

No there's no one else's eyes
That could see into me

No there's no one else's eyes
That could see into me
No one else's arms can lift
Lift me up so high
Your love lifts me out of time
And you know my heart by heart

And you know my heart by heart

And you know my heart by heart

And you know my heart by heart

Favorite book:  My favorite book of the series has to be City of Glass :) for totally obvious reasons. Its got action, romance and the ending... well... PERFECT!

Favorite character and why: I love them all but after thinking I'd have to say Jace. He's currently one of the best shadowhunters around and I like how his past was shrouded in mystery. I love his cocky attitude, saracastic ways and the way he acts to Clary is just hot haha. He loves her and because of it she gets put on this pedastool even though she can totally handle herself. I love how Jace's attitude was "To love is to destroy" but yet when he meets Clary his whole personality changes. He's the guy you have to love. Even though Valentine was bad towards him Jace still loves him and it goes to show what a better person he is. And of course he's a Herondale :) And we all know how much I LOVE WILL HERONDALE :)

Favorite quote: “Do you remember back at the hotel when you promised that if we lived, you’d get dressed up in a nurse’s outfit and give me a sponge bath?" asked Jace.

"It was Simon who promised you the sponge bath."
"As soon as I’m back on my feet, handsome," said Simon.
"I knew we should have left you a rat.” - City of Bones

Favorite fan moment: I haven't met the cast yet :'( but thinking back to my fav fan moment.. Not only when I heard they were making City of Bones into a movie but I practically screamed and jumped for joy when I found out they were making City of Ashes :)
