About

The Vampire genre has always been a great love of mine and my passion for the topic is what led me to write my first novel.  I am a paranormal author who early on in my writing career decided to publish independently.   The idea of having full creative control of my work was appealing to me and has been very rewarding.

Aside from vampires, I am intrigued with all things supernatural.  I find the writing process a great way to pursue these interests and express my thoughts on humanity and morality.

While not denying that they are basically evil, she portrays them as having feelings of love and caring for one another and for selected mortals. This work is well written and shows the author had spent a lot of time and research in this genre.  She had demonstrated great ability in creating an interesting plot line as we follow Deirdra's decision to join this ghoulish world of the living dead, then wrestle with her conscience to deal with what is required for survival as a creature of the night.</font></font></em></div><div style="text-align:left;line-height:normal;" align="left"><em><font><font color="#000000">It is a novel well worth reading for those of you who enjoy or are curious about this particular genre.</font></font></em></div><div style="text-align:left;line-height:normal;" align="left">Eric J.
