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!

Done hexing...for now!
Mario here,
Sayonara Mucho Mojo and RomCon2011. It was nice. It was real. And it's over.
The loooooong weekend started with Thursday's Mucho Mojo hijinks at MadWines, courtesy of Denver Public Library's Fresh City Life program. Jeanne, Kimberly Frost, and Nicole Peeler laid us out with their assorted charms and pervy erotic readings. We cooled off afterwords at the Mercury Cafe where Kimberly and Nicole posed under the famous flying tiger.
Olivia Cunning shows off her fabulous RomCon Readers Crown trophies (major jealousy here at Biting-Edge corporate headquarters. We want one!)
The dealers room included jewelry sales that support the Colorado Association of Libraries benefit for Bulgarian libraries. Major cool move.
Besides panels and schmoozing, we all had plenty of real-world homework (that unfortunately interfered with our drinking). Jeanne and Kimberly practically shoot sparks out their ears as they hack at deadlines.
Once the con fun and games were over, we hoofed it to the Broadway Book Mall for a signing that included Lizzie T. Leaf (center) and to her left, Melissa Mayhue (who was so proud of her sparkly covers!)
To cap off the fun and gird ourselves for the return to planet Earth, we trekked to the Interstate Kitchen & Bar, where Nicole shared her appreciation of good head.

We're Going to HEX you up!
Mario here:
Like most of you out there in Internet land, we're melting like chocolate truffles on a hot plate. Hot? Try scorching! And made even hotter and more scorching by Denver's first ever County Fair! After a hundred and fifty years, zilchero until this weekend.
Being a county fair, urban farming got a major plug. Lots of prize tomatoes, squash, and other veggies plus the newly allowed (within the city limits) chickens, ducks, and dwarf goats. Also on display, raptors that eat said chickens, ducks, and goats.
Being Denver, everything got a big-city snarky twist, from kid's dioramas...
to Steampunk...
Local MileHiCon fans should recognize the fashionable Chelsea Lowe and Zachary Byron Helm...
and their stylish wheels for the urban commute...
Take a deep breath! Now pump your little fists and let out a big SQUEEE!
It's almost here! Mucho Mojo!
This Thursday, 7-9pm, August 4, at MadWine Bar,
1200 Acoma St, in Denver. 
In conjunction with Fresh City Life and those good folks at the Denver Public Library, Urban Fantasy authors Kimberly Frost, Nicole Peeler, and our own Jeanne Stein, promise to Hex You Up!
You'll get free DIY mojo bags for special talismans provided by the authors. And then we'll get down with some adult erotic readings from each others' work. Things could get STEAMY! Fortunately, you'll have the opportunity to cool off with appropriately adult beverages.
Over the weekend, catch us at RomCon 2011.
And then, Mucho Mojo Round Two, Sunday, 4pm, August 7 at the Broadway Book Mall, 200 S Broadway, Denver. We'll be joined for a reading and signing by Melissa Mayhue and Lizzie T. Leaf.
Five times the urban fantasy, five times the literary awesomeness!
