Welcome to Biting-Edge, a blog shared by authors Mario Acevedo and Jeanne Stein. We're fiction writers who've written vampire novels, so we'll ramble on about our books, events, and related topics. Why vampires? We thought there were altogether too many books about killer clowns, teenage truck stop prostitution, and tough guy former addicts. After extensive research, we learned that there had never been a fictional vampire who wore a clown suit, solicited customers at diners, or read Dickens in a prison cell to someone named Brisket.

  Murder in the Mile High City



Mario here:

We're in the final countdown for Left Coast Crime 2008. The Rocky Mountain News gave us a great plug. Check it out. As usual, for me, everything seems to happen at once. I'm organizing the Mile High Murder Machine tour of Denver murders, in the middle of the book four deadline, sending out promotional material for the launch of The Undead Kama Sutra. And, attending to a little thing called taxes.



Biker chick and all-around major great person Diana Rowe probably has the coooolest job in the world, she's a travel writer. I consider myself an interpid traveler if I make it to the mall. Meanwhile, Diana is waiting for a golf resort to be built on Mars. Check out her blog, Traveling in Heels. Beware, you cube rats will want to slit your wrists in jealousy.

I'm reading the weather forecasts hourly as I want you LCCers to have a perfect conference experience. So far, the weather wizards are predicting fair conditions except for snow/rain on Wednesday. Dress warm in case.

I've got good news to share. For those of you who don't know, besides writing, I also paint. I recently had a show and sold this peice, The Candle Light Tavern.



Cheers!

Very nice, Mario. Makes me want to take up art again.

As if I don't have enough frustration with the writing...
 
That's an amazing painting. At first sight, I was sure it was a photo (and I was looking for an explanation as to what it meant! :p). Beautiful work!
