    About this ebook

    Vampire tales are always being revisited, taking on many different angles and shapes. Vamp.0 is another version of the old legend. Told with slight humor, our players include a Gothic bloodsucker, a clumsy loner, and a rotten bully. What a combo!

    Greetings ~Thanks for visiting my Smashwords bio page. A lifelong love of books lead me (as most authors) to writing. I'm not ashamed to admit I use reading and writing as an escape from reality. The constant chaos moving around out there can't reach me when I'm immersed in books and writing.Although I’ve always felt partial to reading and writing horror I really wanted to give my drama, Even In Stillness There Is Rhythm a shot. It was an opportunity to really work on character development, which for me is the most important facet of a story. I really like my characters in that story. Especially Johnny. He was a labor of love. How could I write about a man who is kind and sensitive, yet still a strong masculine figure? I think I pulled it off okay. You can read 40% of my novel for free on this site, and please check out my other stories, My Sister Shelby story about a young girl in the lazy summer of 1976, and Vamp.0, another version of the old legend.Blessings and all the bestDebbieThe beauty in our hearts, transforms the world around us ~ Red Bear

      Vamp.0 - Deborah Krider

      Vamp.0

      Deborah Krider, Smashwords Edition

      Copyright  2010 by Deborah Krider

      Get out of my way punk!

      I felt a rough shove on my back and I clattered to the ground. Books flew out of my arms and my chin bounced off the concrete floor.

      Laughter echoed around me. Hurt and humiliated, I gathered my belongings, keeping my eyes cast down. I didn’t need to see who pushed me or even hear the harsh voice that spoke. I knew who it was by the familiar shove. Kyle Walker.

      Have a nice trip, freak-boy? More laughter followed.

      When I finally looked up, I saw the back of that big lummox and his Neanderthal friends walking away. Kids that flooded the hall resumed retrieving their things from their lockers and clanked them shut. So used to seeing this sort of spectacle, they’d already grown bored of me and I became invisible for the time being as I balanced my books in the crook of my arm and stood.

      My name is Ethan Ennis, and being called names like, Eatin’ Penis, and Eat More Anus, for the last three years by The Bullies has made me popular in the most undesirable way.

      Once Kyle called me Beatin’
