Vampire Wiriting Bites

I enjoyed Heather Brewer's energetic article about the "allure of writing about vampires."  Brewer is the author of The Chronicles of Vladimir Todd.  And she likes it all!  Stoker, Salem's Lot, and a couple of others that I won't mention here. 
.
Of course, I did like Anne Rice's vampires.  King has recently returned to the Vampire genre with American Vampire.

  1. I'd never heard of Brewer before, but she sound pretty cool; I may have to check that "Vladimir Todd" book out.

    I also found myself wondering while I was reading her article whether she'd read "American Vampire" yet. It's really good; good enough that I've kept reading even after King finished his run at co-writing it. The newest story arc seems as if it's going to be the best one yet. I'd love to see King come back to the series at some point, but I'm hooked one way or another!
