Broken Heart Vamps Blog
http://www.myspace.com/brokenheartvamps
"Hi, there! My name is Jessica Matthews and I run the Broken Heart Vamps MySpace and Blog. I don't know how the hell I got stuck with this particular duty because everything technology freaks me out. I STILL can't get the damned PDA to work right and do NOT get me started about the fancy cell phone assigned to me by the Consortium. Uh ... what were we talking about?

Right. The blog. Michele Bardsley, who's a human drone (though we Consortium vampires aren't supposed to have drones, so I have to call her "an author of fiction") said I should come over and put in my blog 'n stuff. Y'see, her version of our little town and what happened last summer is coming out in September. It's called I'M THE VAMPIRE, THAT'S WHY and she seems to think promoting it is something I should do.

Well, anyway, I hope you include us on your tour because God knows I don't want to hear Michele whine anymore about "promotion" and "sell-through" and "never selling another book because I suck, suck, suck." (She doesn't mean that in the same way I do ... because for a vampire, to suck is a good thing.)

Thanks!"

I couldn't have said it better myself. Thanks Jessica & Michele!
