Free Fiction Monday: Hero Dust
Bram understands the importance of stories. After all, he convinced Stoker to write Dracula to frighten the world.
One of the original vampire hunters, Bram has seen vampires in action. But he grows weary of the job. He needs a replacement. Only the world of the 21st century doesn’t lend itself to heroes—not of the kind he needs anyway.
Until he realizes that perhaps he should look for a heroine instead.
“Hero Dust,” by New York Times bestselling author Kristine Kathryn Rusch is free on this website for one week only.

Sins of the Blood Reissued!
Vampire Days continue with this announcement: WMG Publishing has reissued my vampire novel, Sins of the Blood. Those of you who bought my romance novels in recent weeks, be warned: This novel is the opposite of those. This is not a Twilight type of vampire story. This is a horror novel, and quite dark. It has gotten great reviews and has received a cult following […]
