Storberry
An old-school horror/vampire novel where the vampires are pure monsters (rather than love interests). A small town in Virginia (Storberry) is overrun by vampires. A small group of surviving townsfolk band together to try to save themselves before their town disappears.
The story has a slow build, with am emphasis on character building.
The audience Storberry will most appeal to will be monster movie and novel fans, and those who appreciate a focus on characters. There is a fair amount of gore in spots, but nothing too squeamish.

Your story sounds very intriguing! I prefer stories where vampires are pure monsters or at least have a nasty tendency to them. All the new style vampires make me rather angry lol

I went for pure horror, Jessica. I wanted a monster that reminded me of Nosferatu and Mr. Barlow from the TV version of Salem's Lot.
If you decide to check it out, please let me know what you think. I'll be here. :)
Sounds like my kind of story definitely. I'd like to give it a read :) If you could PM me and I'll give you my e-mail :))

Do you have a published book you'd like to advertise here in the Authors topic?

Somehow I missed the Authors Corner when I signed up with this group! I don't have anything published yet, but I am in the process of finishing two YA fantasy adventures with fairy creatures and a contemporary romance. I could definitely use a couple of beta readers to give me critiques.
I am also available for anybody who needs reviews on books that fit my tastes (fantasy, sci-fi, romance but not erotica, and horror)!

I have moved the folder up in Discussions so it is more visible and also edited the main post in this topic, it was obviously not clear what was expected :S
I am sure you have noticed by now in other groups there is a folder meant for authors to open a topic whenever they want to promote a book; that was the initial idea behind this folder, just didn't explain myself too well... Hope it's clearer now!

I thought I had created a 'topic' but it was only a 'comment' - sorry!

I love the Algarve! Last time I was there I stayed at Quarteira. I adored it and wish I was there right now!

Hi, Ana, Quarteira what a lovely town, remember it well. I loved watching all the elderly Portuguese Gentlemen, sit and play cards and dominoes just outside the little museum on the seafront.

I loved walking next to the beach on Quarteira, there were a lot of nice restaurants and shops and yummy ice cream ^_^
The weather always seems to be great there so I hope one day I can go back.
Best luck with your book!
