Vampires as heros?
For centuries, vampires have occupied the pinnacle position in the human psyche as the portrait of evil—cold, soulless, undead who cannibalize the living by drinking our vital life essence. How is it possible that vampires become heros in today's culture?
This phenomenon baffles me… I'd love to hear your thoughts on the topic?

Albane Mesnil
Her beauty was gravity. Raven hair, milky smooth skin, full lips and a diva's curves. Pulling his gaze from her took a physical effort. More than once she had admonished him with her eyes for his adolescent impropriety, but AJ could not help himself. He had never encountered a woman like Albane Mesnil before.

Stephen Thorne
I'm currently researching a future novel, and I had the good fortune to interview the accomplished photo journalist Stephen Thorne. Stephen was kind enough to share with me some of his observations and experiences from his days embedded with US and Canadian military forces in Afghanistan over the past decade. He is a keen observer of the human condition. You can check out his work at: http://www.thornefoto.com
