Two rivals at a vampire family Christmas party? See "Eternal Poetry" by Laurel Anne Hill

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

A twenty-something woman vampire (who has not yet gone through "the change") falls in love with a shape-shifting poet who works nights as a security guard.   But that vampire woman's family tries to set her up with someone else instead.  Neither guy knows about the other one.  What will happen when the  shapeshifting poet meets his rival at the annual family Christmas party?

Compare the Vampires in my Bedroom Closet (by Laurel Anne Hill, Author of "Heroes Arise")

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Yesterday, I posted my latest podcast on Welcome to My Bedroom Closet, http://www.laurelannehill.libsyn.com.

This 7-1/2 minute offering describes some of the techniques I used to improve my writing between 1997 and 2005.   I compare my two vampire coming of age stories ("Eternal Poetry" and "Real Vampires Don't Snore") to give examples.  I wrote "Real Vampires Don't Snore" in 1997 and "Eternal Poetry" in 2005.

My Vampires Don't Sparkle. They Snore. (by Laurel Anne Hill, Author of "Heroes Arise")

Monday, September 28th, 2009

Okay, everyone, I've now posted the concluding half of "Eternal Poetry" on my podcast site (www.laurelannehill.libsyn.com), also available for free on iTunes.  "Eternal Poetry" is a vampire romance and coming of age tale, published by "Nth Zine (Online Exclusives)" in 2005.  Next week I plan to record "Real Vampires Don't Snore," published a number of years ago by "Calliope" and again last year due to popular request.

Both "Eternal Poetry" and "Real Vampires Don't Snore" look at romance and family relationships from a young, supernatural woman's point of view.  My vampires don't sparkle in the sun or play baseball during thunder storms.  They break the vampire stereotypes in their own ways.

In October, I plan to compare the writing of "Eternal Poetry" and "Real Vampires Don't Snore."  I'll discuss the writing techniques I use now versus the ones I used 10-12 years ago.
