Allow me to introduce to you the beginning of the very rough draft that is A Vampire’s Vengeance. Finally! This is, of course, what the Backstage Pass is all about: seeing the development of the attractions being raised in the Carnival of Calamity in real time! Now, gather your coffee, your tea, your whiskey, or whatever it is you enjoy when you settle down to read, and step with me into the backyard tomb of a damn near ageless vampire as he awakens to discover … what? Only one way to find out.
