Working on a new short story, here’s the opening lines.
I’m not exactly sure how to tell you my story. It’s not like most. Oh, it follows Aristotle’s arc of drama just fine. There is a building story with a climactic point followed by some predictable aftermath where we all learn a lesson. It’s fairly textbook in most regards. Where it deviates from the norm is this: I’m the villain.
Now don’t get me wrong. I’m likable. I suppose that you could argue that all the best villains are, but I’m especially likable. I’m really a very nice person. Except for, you know, killing people and drinking all of their blood.

Oh, a Vamp story. I can’t wait to read it.
