Vampire verse and musings on technology (more like weird random thoughts)

Just another silly post from vampiremaman.com
Have fun.

Time travel makes me dizzy.

In the darkness

Ancient and cool

In the heat

Of blistering summer

Waiting for night

Dreaming of winter

And in a moment

Texting

A friend

Finding out

If they’ll dance

And hunt

Then laugh

In the darkness

Of the cool

Summer night.

My reflection is unclear,

But you my love,

Can get my text

And I can get your neck.

My brother Val is never without his smart phone. I’m not either and my teens, well, they might as well be phone Zombies. We’re all on our phones. So much has been written about teens and phones. You already

You wouldn’t think Vampires would have smart phones with texting and all the social media but we do. Sure we can send our thoughts out but why not just text and have our prey WANT to come to us. It is always nicer if they think it is their idea.

Morning at the Vineyard – Collected Stories

Add this one to your summer reading list.

Juliette Kings's avatarVampire Maman

tangled tales cover

Now available at Amazon.com

A collection of 26 stories from Vampire Maman.

This isn’t just another “my book is out spam.”

This is a THANK YOU note for all of you who have followed Vampire Maman. You’ve read my stories and tales of Vampire adventure, parenting, romance and thoughts on life. You’ve left comments, feedback and love. You’ve shown so much support. And best of all you’ve really entertained me. I had no idea when I started this little Vampire/Parenting-Blog adventure that you were out there.

I also want to say thank you to all of my friends in the WPaD publishing group. You’re more than writers – you’re family.

So anyway, I’ll do a proper spamming of this book later – I just want to say LOOK. HEY.

But now it is night and I must go do Vampire things. You know how it is.

xoxo

The Blood and the Cauldron – Part 1

More fun summer reading… just follow the blog of Mari Wells and the writing of Karen Soutar! You’ll be glad you did (but keep the lights on.)

Karen Soutar, is an awesome writer. Her vampires are smexy to the extreme. This installment is tame, but just keep coming back. Tomorrow’s installment is as hot as an Arizona summer.

The Blood and the Cauldron – Part 1

The heavy door swung inwards without a sound. That was good; he had half-expected it to creak. He stepped inside, hugging the wall and scanning the hallway for any movement. There was none. He left the door open, hoping that a little light would follow him. It was risky being here this late. The sun was almost down. Then they would rise, and he had no way of knowing how many there were. He had only ever seen the two, but he couldn’t save Cara if there were many more. He would be too outnumbered.

He had asked Mark to go with him, but his friend had refused.

An important post about suicide

I’m going to put a Trigger Warning for Suicide on this one kids.I’m going to talk some about suicide again and I don’t want to catch anyone off guard. Y’all know me by now – no gore or icky details, but I’d like to speak honestly. I’ve written about this before, and I’ll write about it again, and again, and again until no one ever feels compelled to take their own life.If you’re fortunate enough to have never felt like taking your life was the only way out, count your blessings. No really, we’ll wait.

The Hunt Continues

Part 5 in a continuing story of love, vampires and vampire hunters. This isn’t some teen tale of sparkly little expressionless pukes. It is more of an adult story – a little more real, a lot smarter and a lot more fun. Click here for: Short Story Sunday: The Hunt Continues.
