“She was within me like the blood was within me in each and every fibre. I talked to her, but she never spoke back. It was just like talking to God, I never knew what either one of them thought about the words I spoke. It did not make her unreal. It did not make God unreal. It just made me want to connect with them even more.”
― My Unbeating Heart
― My Unbeating Heart
“In the beginning, God created the heaven the earth and sometime later, the vampire.”
