Vampire Musings

Welcome to Vampire Musings. My name is Bertena, and I am the publisher of this macabre book. Since I was a small child, I have loved vampires and even spent most of my college years studying the Lure of the Vampire. From these studies, I met so many wonderful writers, musicians, and academicians who share this love as well. I have noticed that the lure of the vampire comes and goes over time, but those true to the monsters never really leave. Because of this, I wanted to pull together my friends and allow us to share our passion for the monsters with fans from around the world.

I hope that you enjoy these short stories and essays as much as I have enjoyed conversing with the writers about all thing's vampires!

In this book, you will find authors who are fiction writers, professors, musicians, wine connoisseurs, and even a psychic vampire who lives the lifestyle and shares her gift and knowledge with us. We hope that the stories, poetry, and song lyrics will seduce and mesmerize you. There is something here for everyone, so please enjoy!

So, sit back, relax, and enjoy your night!
