Welcome to Biting-Edge, a blog shared by authors and vampire experts, Mario Acevedo and Jeanne Stein. We’ll cover urban fantasy, vampires, pop culture, and all things Joss Whedon. Unlike other fantasy blogs, we don’t insist on body cavity searches (unless you ask politely). Snarkiness is most welcome...though we won't promise not to bite back!

Easy as 1,2,3...Vampires, Booze, and Sex Mario here:
1. There's often talk that vampires have run their course. We scoff at such heresy. At the Biting-Edge, it's always:
The Biting-Edge can never get enough vampires, and we especially dig the old school, creepy pre-sparkly kind such as Frank Langella, the urbane and dashing Dracula. "No drugs! It will pollute her blood." Spoken like a true gentleman in a 70s do.
We even appreciate Frank Langella's thespian license when he steals the show as Skeletor in Masters of the Universe.
(watching this movie helps if you have a thing for Meg Foster as Evil-Lyn.)
On the subject of goofy, sci-fi/fantasy-related videos, check this out:
2. We're riffing here, so follow the drops of Saurian brandy to this classic piece on Space Trek Sousing in Modern Drunkard. Spoiler alert, the author despised the politically correct Star Trek TNG.
3. And there's this great news from Publishers Lunch:
Lorelei James's next two BLACKTOP COWBOY novels, involving a sports therapist and her hard-riding cowboy patients, to Kerry Donovan at NAL, by Scott Miller at Trident Media Group.
If you want to learn more about what makes Lorelei James such a smoking hot author of erotica, sneak a read of Book 5 of the Rough Riders series: Rough, Raw, and Ready. Warning:This book contains unbelievably explicit sex, including multiple cowboy/cowgirl/cowboy ménage scenes, juicy, hot, male on male action, a bucketful of politically incorrect situations and true Western ideology.
And the San Francisco Bay Area thinks it has a lip lock on such pervitude. Yee-ha to South Dakota!
