I procrastinate more than I write, if it was a career, I would be a millionaire. I've been working on my novel in it's varying forms for seven years now... almost as long as it took Bram Stoker to write his vampire novel!

I really need to stop finding excuses, and just write

Do you mean the Burren? It's in County Clare, which is a million miles from where I live in the north of the Republic heh.

My novel is set in Ireland, a town called Dunn, in fact, which is a fictional town made up of a load of towns around where I live in real life. The whole novel revolves around what happens when vampires start killing people living in and around it (amongst a lot of more interesting stuff, of course)
Thanks for the unofficial welcome party!! ;D

I'm popping in here just to say hi. I've been a lurker for a long time... er.. nearly a year. I've been working on my vampire novel The Bringer of Aten for nearly seven years now. (Yes, very crappy title, but it is only the WIP title, heh)
Am currently gearing myself up to rewriting and reworking the very, very lame first draft. It's in the vein of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with a little of Harry Dresden thrown in (unfortunately, no wizards in it as yet!) and will hopefully spawn at least two other books. I don't wanna give too much away, but if anyone would like to see some of it, I have a couple of the first pages of the rewrite somewhere on my computer :P
I've been writing since I was a teenager, and this novel, though it really shouldn't be, is my baby... mainly because I've lived so long with the characters, they've become very good friends of mine xD

Other than that... I'm 27, hail from the middle-of-nowhere Ireland and am looking forward to hanging out about here a bit more :P

From what I read on Amazon, this actually sounds like fairly routine chick lit/erotica.  Come on, there's NO way any book could possibly live up to this title, now, is there? :D

lol, that's true... but do we really want to know if it does?  :P
