For those of you who have left such lovely comments on my WIPpet Wednesday snippets from my vampire story, who have asked to read more…
Chapters 1-3 are posted on Wattpad (click here!). I’ll be revising, editing and posting more as I’m able, at least one chapter a week. We’ll see how that goes. Some of you will remember the first chapter, slightly altered from its original posting here, and you’ll find the full “bite scene” that I teased you with a while back.
Take a look here, and sign up to follow if you’d like to be notified of updates, though I’ll post occasional reminder here when I think to do it.
The story is currently rated PG-13, but I’m going to have to bump it up to “R” once I get to the murder scenes– even then, I’m just sort of hoping it will be okay. The problem is that stories rated “R” aren’t eligible to be promoted as “What’s Hot,” which sort of takes the piss out of my sails (to coin a really terrible mixed metaphor). So I won’t be earning reads that way. But hey, if you like the story and want to share it, feel free!
(Just a reminder that the story contains darker elements and possibly disturbing images, especially as it goes on. If that’s not your cup of tea, we can still be friends, but you might just want to skip this one. I’ll have a less icky Fantasy short story soon, I hope!)

I’m so bookmarking this for breakfast tomorrow^^
…allow me to elaborate: I’ll be reading this during breakfast tomorrow. Not eating it for breakfast. Although with a vampire story, that makes a disturbing kind of sense, in a very abstract way…

Makes sense to me! I hope you enjoy. I only put up three chapters because once chapter 4 goes up, I think it’s R rating affects the whole story, and I’d like to pick up a few trades before then if I can. So if you like it and know anyone else who might be interested…
So, will you be enjoying a delicious instant cappuccino with your vampires? 🙂

Probably, if I get up too late to get that last cup of real coffee before my brother gets to it…^^
The curse of the too-small coffee pot… never enough for four caffeine addicts XD

Yeah, you’d need a BIG coffee pot. I’d like a Keurig or a Tassimo– but then, I’m the only tea/coffee drinker in my house, so single-serving makes sense.
