In addition to "Blow Job Red," Podcaster SFZine has also made an offer for "Exposure." I love this story, so am pleased it will get yet another outing [to date, it's appeared in BLOOD MUSE (Donald I Fine), BLOOD THIRST (Oxford), and STREETS OF BLOOD (Cumberland House)].

Yeah, it's a vampire story. *grin* Michael J Westin, Vampire-as-photographer. It's also the story that got me irate e-mails from people protesting that I "didn't understand vampires" and "was getting it all wrong." Um, if you say so....

The follow-up story, "His Essential Nature," (Dreams of Decadence, and reprinted in their Best of anthology) had Westin and his vampire-killing buddy hunting down a rogue vampire in the streets of Manhattan, while Westin's also balancing The Suburban Dream, and impending parenthood. Yeah, I got vampires all wrong. But the stories seem to have done all right for themselves....

I should check in and see what he's up to these days. I know there's at least one more story in the old boy yet....

It's 9 degrees outside. I'm just mentioning that in passing.

Meanwhile, I am off to DC, for a weekend House Party/Working Vacation at Holly House with [livejournal.com profile] neadods, while [livejournal.com profile] 0eris0 minds the cats. It's a commentary of some sort when your luggage for five days consists of three days worth of clothing, two manuscripts, a laptop, a box of DVDs and two bottles of wine...

Expect frequent but possibly incoherent road-trip blogging.
