Calling all fans of HBO's True Blood TV series!
I am psyched to announce that my hilarious essay "A Kinder, Gentler Vampire" from the True Blood anthology A Taste of True Blood: The Fangbanger's Guide has been posted in its entirety for a limited time (only a week!), over at the Smartpop blog.
Go read it now before they take it down!
Gives you a great flavor of the whole book!
Here's the opening:
"It seems like vampire leading men are all the same.
Whether it’s “vegetarian” vampire Edward from Twilight, brooding champion of the innocent Angel from Buffy, righteous detective Nick Knight from Forever Knight, sweet vermin-eating weakling Stefan from The Vampire Diaries, or remorseful and compassionate Louis from Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles-they’ve all got a certain something.
Really, think about it.
It’s as if a committee of all-powerful creative types got together for a super-sekrit brainstorming session and assembled a very special “vampire romantic hero prototype” package. . . ."
