Thoughts n' Shit

Sometimes I just want to write a vampire story where the vampire doesn't have superhuman strength. He's just some poor, photosensitive schmuck who has to come up with increasingly sketchy ways to obtain blood and maintain enough semblance of humanity that people don't hunt his skinny ass down and set him on fire.

    I've always wanted to want to write something like this as well. Combine that with the were-elephant and I think we have the makings of an amazing sitcom...

    Plus a shitty misfit vampire hunter who got all their training from clocking a couple hundred hours of Castlevania.

    I read a query recently where it was a vampire story except that the vampire was fat and not pretty. The first 6 paragraphs were rhetorical questions.

    I also got one where the opening lines of the query letter were:

    Q: What's better than having a boyfriend who is a vampire?

    A: Having a boy boyfriend that turns into a horse.

    Well, you gotta admit, having a boyfriend that turns into a horse would sure as hell save on gas.

    Also, I'm pretty sure a book about a fat vampire already exists. It's called Fat Vampire. http://www.amazon.com/Fat-Vampire-Never-Coming-Story/dp/B0057DAP5K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336760311&sr=8-1

    So maybe that person needs to go to a bookstore or something. Cuz it'll be there. On the shelf. Probably.
