The Real Deal

Have you ever seen someone you thought might be a "real" vampire? If so, sent a comment my way. I believe I did once in a public restroom at a club. There was something about this woman that made me go hummmmmm....

New Direction

After getting my editorial letter back I may be heading in a new direction with my novel. Everyone wants more about the eminent vampire wars, so I may give it to them, mixed in with a love story of course. Everyone loves a love story, even if it is about vampires!

I have my work cut out for me but I am excited.

Moonlight

I discovered a new television show on Friday nights at 9pm titled Moonlight. It is about a detective, Mick St. John, who is a vampire living in present day LA. As is usually the case with vampires, he falls in love with a mortal woman; a newspaper reporter he rescued when she was just a child. They are attracted to one another yet he dare not get her too involved in his world. He has a conscious, morals and integrity, just like my main vampire character, Christian. He lives in eternal conflict between his nature and his memory of his human self.

The other television show I was watching (no I don't watch that much TV, but vampires intrique me in case you haven't guessed), is Blood Ties. I do not like Vicky, the main character. I find her too hard, too one dimensional. I do like Mike and Henry. So, Friday night is vampire night in my house and I have to ask myself why suddenly all these television shows on "fantasy topics?" Is it the state of our world? Our fear of the unknown? I am not sure but it is a genre who's time has come - finally.
