It has been an age old tradition of this blog, dating back all the way to March 2012 (yes, all those many months ago), for the month of March to be assigned ‘Vampire Month’ and to be taken up with guest posts and interviews by writers who work in genres involving nightstalking bloodsuckers. Last March we had some wonderful posts by Diana Hardy, Skyla Dawn Cameron, Ninfa Hayes and Jason Petty covering subjects ranging from muses to book buying and now it is almost time to get things organised for this March…Vampire

So, with this in mind, I am putting out a call. I need fresh blood to fill the pages of Vampire month this year.

If you are a writer of something which could be construed in some way to be ‘vampire fiction’ or you know a writer who is and can contact them without stalking them I would be very interested in speaking with you. Contact me via this blog, Twitter, Facebook or my email address (dalascelles-writing@yahoo.co.uk) and tell me all about yourself or the author you think you can contact for me.

Of course, while I’d love to be able to get Ann Rice, Rachel Caine, Stephenie Meyer and similar on board for this (or even Jos Whedon or Toby Whitehouse) I am equally happy to accept less famous writers so long as you can do an interesting blog post and answer some interview questions. I would not, of course, say no to any of the above. However, if you contact me claiming to have exclusive access to Bram Stoker, I’d tell you to put him back where you found him and that Grave Robbery is so 1800s, darling…

Exciting new things for the New Year

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAJust before New Year, I promised you all new and exciting news and you may or may not be pleased to know that this is the post in which I announce it!

If you pop over to http://www.dalascelles.co.uk/index.html you will see that there is a website all about me. It is all shiny and new (still got the plastic wrapping on all the seats and has that wonderful ‘new website smell’). You can find my bio there as well as links and extracts for all the stuff I have worked on and am currently working on. I’ve also included a links page for some of the wonderful people I have met in my time as a writer. If you think you need to be on that list, feel free to contact me to be added…

I am still getting used to this whole idea of having a website all about me. I blame Judy Bagshaw for persuading me that I needed on and Rebekah Harrington for also poking me about it. I especially blame the wonderful Wednesday for doing all the design work (she makes a wonderful photographic model too) and the very helpful people of 5quidhost who are the hosts of the site. I hope you are all ashamed of the horrors you have helped to bring to fruition 🙂

As Christmas ends and the New Year looms, everyone inevitably begins to think about things like resolutions and reviews of past deeds. My intention in this post is to look at this blog and consider what has been successful in the past year.

The Ten Most popular posts

[News From the Spirit World] Vampires More stats 488
[AW Blog Chain] Zompocalypse More stats 385
The Avengers UK: Crossover universes More stats 198
A day in the life of a Fantasy Photostudio More stats 155
About More stats 130
Teaching: Behaviour management on BBC Breakfast More stats 108
[AW blog chain] Otherworldly More stats 97
Photoshoot II: Attack of the texting Zombies (with Romans) More stats 91
[AW Blog chain] Rainy Days More stats 85
Weird Worlds [AW Blog chain for June] More stats 82

This table shows the most popular posts for the year. I have excluded the most popular post (at over 2,800 views) because that was ‘homepage/archive’ which basically means that someone viewed the first page. It is interesting that the most popular post this year was one I did as a link to News From the Spirit World for an article I wrote on Vampires. I am guessing that this is due to the overall popularity of Vampires in general. Many of the Absolute Write blog chain posts are also trending in this list which implies that the link from the other blogs in the chain is achieving something. Finally, the Avengers Crossover post and the various Photoshoot posts are perennial favourites that seem to pop up every now and again even months after being posted. Oh, and my ego feels quite pleased that people feel it necessary to view my about page…

Ten Most popular keywords

vampires 280
zombie 98
vampirler 29
avengers meme 17
writer 13
weird worlds 12
zombie lady 12
behaviour management 9
the chosen book review 9
vampire 9

There have been a number of weird and wonderful keywords used over the time this blog has been active. This table shows the most popular ones used. I am sure no one is at all surprised that Vampires come up top, especially given the result of ‘most popular post’. There are also a few variants on that – vampires and vampirler showing up a few times.  Zombie is also a search term which again shows up frequently with a couple of variants – zombie lady being the one shown here. Finally, it is probably no surprise given the popularity of that franchise that the Avengers shows up as the most popular after Vampires and Zombies in this table. The numbers here are obviously less than those for the most popular post because search terms are by their nature more variable.

This table does not show some of the weirdest search terms used to find this blog because most of those were one offs… ‘Cute Zombie Girl’ and ‘Hot Sexy Zombie’ both came up 3 times (with other variants in there as well), ‘Ninfa Goddess’ another 3 times (though I am not convinced it was not Ninfa herself doing this search out of ego…) and ‘discipline suit’ came up twice. No idea what a ‘discipline suit’ is but I am assuming that search led them to my tirade about behaviour management… There was also a weird one ‘benedict cumberbatch as lascelles’ which I assume must have been someone searching for information about the upcoming Strange and Norrell adaptation in which I think Mr Cumberbatch would indeed make a great Lascelles though I have no idea if he has been cast or not (or if anyone has been cast in this particular adaptation…).If anyone hears about any casting news for Strange and Norrell, please feel free to let me know.

Top Ten Countries Viewing the Blog

United Kingdom 1,971
United States FlagUnited States 1,968
Canada FlagCanada 308
Australia FlagAustralia 228
India FlagIndia 91
Philippines FlagPhilippines 73
Germany FlagGermany 68
Puerto Rico FlagPuerto Rico 52
France FlagFrance 51
Indonesia FlagIndonesia 49

Naturally, UK and US dominate this chart in the top two positions here with my fans in both countries vying for top spot and ending with a very close call (only three views in it in the end). This obviously comes from me being British and my books being largely published in the US. I also have a good mix of people from both countries on my facebook and twitter accounts (both of which get links to here posted) and a lot of US people come to me through the Absolute Write forums. Australia and Canada are on here for similar reasons – Australia due to the many fans of Rebekah Harrington and Canada due to Skyla Dawn Cameron and Judy Bagshaw’s occasional posts on this blog. It is also nice to see other countries on here to give the place a proper international feel with places such as the Philippines and Indonesia showing up there.

So, that is a brief overview of the state of this blog as the year comes to a close. I’ve found some interesting trends here and hope to find many more in 2013 when I repeat this process again. Of course, this year has been good for a few other things. In this year I managed to get involved in the creation of an entire world background for a fantasy wargame called Realm (today is your last chance to enter the competition to win some miniatures…) and also to finally release Transitions onto an unsuspecting public after many many years in ‘publication hell’. I’ve also managed to organise two successful photoshoots by bringing different people with different exceptional talents together then sitting back and watching them work magic.

In 2013 I have other plans afoot and hope to be able to announce other fun things very soon…

[Guest Post] What is Horror? by Rebeka Harrington

Ann Rice, books, Gary Oldman, guest blogging, guest posts, horror, horror author, horror genre, horror writer, Rebeka Harrington, Vampires, writing


Today we have another post by Vampire author Rebeka Harrington in which she discusses the definition of ‘Horror’. Note, I was careful there to refer to her as a ‘Vampire author’ not a ‘Horror author’ for reasons which may become apparent in the post…

Earlier this year Angelic Knight Press featured yours truly in an article: “REBEKA HARRINGTON – WOMAN IN HORROR” (Many thanks AKP) As an indie author I’m always very happy, if not flattered, when someone out there in cyberspace spares me a mention. But until I saw this article I hadn’t even stopped to think I may be considered a “horror” writer. Sure I write about vampires, and they can be pretty horrible, but me…. a horror writer?

My first book, Vampires Revealed, was more like an autobiographical mocumentary than any other tag you care to throw about. Bektamun, narrator and star of the tale, relives some of the “horrible” things she has done; but only when forced to protect those she loves.

Desires Revealed, my latest release, is a love story first and foremost. And of course there are ample vampire shenanigans thrown in. (Got to feed the bloodlust)

Rebeka’s latest book – Desires Revealed

Does writing about vampires automatically mark you as a “horror writer”? When I think of horror fiction the first name that springs to mind is Stephen King, which I’m sure is the same for a lot of people. Mr King has dabbled with vampires (very successfully too, I might add), but his most famous and popular works are far removed from the world of vampires.

Also worth considering is whether or not, despite the vampire revolution, the general expectation is for vampires to appear in the horror genre. Maybe I’m just weird, because I really don’t think of vampires as characters of horror; well at least not so much anymore.

Dracula (as played by Gary Oldman)

Bram Stoker’s Count Dracula was pretty terrifying for the time it was written. Fast forward to The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice; doubt I would’ve bought and read the books if I’d thought I was buying horror. For me, books in The Vampire Chronicles, were about Lestat’s inability to understand humanity; not that he was a blood-sucking monster. Like I said, maybe I’m weird. No doubt my opinion of vampires as characters of horror would change instantaneously should I ever meet a Dracula, Lestat or Eric (Southern Vampires, Charlaine Harris).

When I think about horror, and the things that scare me, I only have to look at history to have shivers run down my spine.

Part of my vampire mythology is a group of extremist vampires known as the Eleiveb. While searching for inspiration as to what kind of things they may subject their human victims, I simply did a search for “torture”. One of the most interesting/horrifying sites I came across was Medieval Torture. The site features a myriad of tools and equipment which sole purpose was to inflict pain and torture on human victims.

While I may be uneasy being assigned as a horror writer, and steadfastly believe mankind is far more horrible to each other than legend or any creature we can imagine, the fact remains I will continue to write about vampires; and they will inevitably do horrible things.

[Vampire Month] Finale

So, that was Vampire month. A month and a bit of Vampires and the people who write about them.

I would like to thank all the writers who have contributed to this month – Rebekah Harrington, Ninfa Hayes, Jason Petty, Dianna Hardy and Skyla Dawn Cameron. All of them have been fantastic and produced some excellent interview answers and blog posts. I have been impressed by everything produced by these wonderful writers. I have also been intrigued by the very different takes on Vampire lore that have been showcased here. It is clear that the term ‘Vampire’ is a catch all term covering a multitude of sins, all with a loose connection and it would take a lot more time than we have had here to properly overview the subject.

With that in mind, I definitely intend to repeat this process again and do another Vampire month next March. Hopefully it will be as successful as this one has been. If you are interested in taking part, please contact me for more details.

On a related topic, I’ve also decided that the format of interview and blog post over a week is a good one and intend to use it more often. If you are a writer of any topic and want to be showcased, feel free to get in touch and I will subject you to an interview and ask you to write a blog post on the subject of your choice.

With that, I close Vampire month and pack all the coffins and stakes away for next year…

It occured to me recently that it has been six months since I first started this blog with the post New Beginnings. Actually, it was six months ago on the 18th of March so it is actually six months and, er, some weeks exactly. However, I got so distracted with Vampire month that it slipped my mind.

So, how have things been going since this blog began? Quite well in my opinion, though still plenty of room for growth. The recent Vampire month guest posts have done very well with Ninfa Hayes so far racking up the highest number of post views with her post Giving Birth to my Muse and all the other participants gaining respectable numbers of readers too. Posts I have made myself have also done reasonably well, with my post for the AW Blog Chain, Rainy Days, racking up the second most views of any post. Which is amazing since that was a random piece of nonsense I babbled out following a prompt and based on some stuff I came up with while on holiday. All of this is reasonably promising after a mere six months of activity. I am getting hits from all over the world (at one point Australia was the place I was getting the most hits from, I blame Rebekah Harrington, but the UK soon took the lead with the US second and Australia third) including some far flung places such as the Phillipines, Peurto Rico and Mexico (actually quite a lot from Mexico, I have my suspicions).

My work on other blogs has also done rather well. I am now a regular reviewer on the ePublish a Book website and on Cult Britannia. I am also starting to post on the News from the Spirit World blog and my contributions there will get more common over the next few months. I am enjoying all of these, especially the opportunity to read self published books and see what is out there – both good and bad. I’ve posted on the Am Writing blog and also on the blogs of a few other writers (and am always willing to do a guest blog if anyone out there wants me to).

I’ve also ventured into writing a wargame called Realm for a company called Serious Lemon and this, along with the royalties from Pirates and Swashbucklers, constitute my first professional writing achievements. There are a few more irons in the fire so hopefully some more writing projects will start to come to fruition in the near future.

So, there you have it. In the next six months, I am hoping for the following:

 – More people reading this blog

 – More people commenting on this blog

 – My ascenstion to ultimate god king of the universe and ruler of all I survey.

If I manage to achieve two out of these three I will be very happy…

[Vampire Month] Writing in Character by Rebekah Harrington

This was supposed to go up yesterday but events conspired against me… I blame solar storms. After all, you can’t post about Vampires when there is a lot of solar activity around…

Writing in Character

By Rebeka Harrington

First up let’s get the shameless self-promotion out of the way… Check out my character blog at www.vampiresrevealed.com. The reason I mention that is because I want to talk about writing in character.

There are many ways a writer might use when trying to develop a new character. One popular method is to draw up a character ‘sheet’, outlining the character’s appearance and traits which make them unique. I tried this and it didn’t work very well for me, maybe I’m a bad writer. (The jury is still out on that one.)

What does work exceedingly well for me is ‘talking’ to my characters. Also I am blessed/cursed (you decide) with movies playing inside my head, my characters having the leading roles.  You’re probably starting to wonder if I’m not a little crazy, I guess the jury hasn’t quite made a decision on that one either.

Originally when I started writing a blog in character, it was my way of getting the conversation started with Bektamun. (Bektamun is a 3000 year old female vampire and is the focus of my debut title “Vampires Revealed.”) At first there was a blurring between the lines as to what was my opinion or Bektamun’s.  Now though it is easy for me to determine what Bektamun’s thoughts or reactions would be in any given situation.

Because my writing focuses on vampires and their role in the world, writing in character as Bektamun has been vital in the development of ‘my’ vampire mythology.  The more I write in character as Bektamun the easier it is for me to understand where things fit in ‘her world’. This in turn makes it easier for me to write an engrossing and believable environment for my readers.

Also as a part of my character blog I keep short biographies of major characters. This has made it much easier for me to spot strengths, weaknesses and motivation in my characters. It also provides light entertainment and character insight for my readers.

So what is the point of all this rambling?

While there are many ways you might use to create unique, memorable and believable characters; ultimately you must choose what is right for you. If I hadn’t surrendered to the craziness perhaps Bektamun’s voice would never have been heard.

[Vampire Month] Rebekah Harrington Interview

First up for Vampire month is Australian writer Rebekah Harrington. This post sees her answers to my indepth interview. Look out for her guest blog post on Thursday

Raised in country Victoria, Rebeka started her writing career working for the local newspaper as a teenager. While she decided not to pursue this as a career, she has always enjoyed writing and being creative

With so many varied interests and eclectic taste in most things, Rebeka enjoys incorporating all of them in her writing. She particularly enjoys writing about vampires.

Rebeka seeks to define and explain vampires in a way not done before. This has been achieved with her debut title “Vampires Revealed”. Following titles will revolve around exploring the world and characters created in her first release.

Currently Rebeka lives inMelbournewith her “demented” but lovable cat, dividing her time between writing and managing a small boutique entertainment agency.

What is the earliest memory you have of writing? What did you write about?

In primary school, maybe about Grade 1 or 2. I wrote about a wizard with a magic ‘finger’. The wizard was having such a giggle at walking around ‘zapping’ people with a tail, rabbit ears and the like.

When did you decide to become a professional writer? Why did you take this step?

I’m not sure I actually made that decision, my writing made it for me. When I returned to writing it was because I had time to devote to it. It was only when others enjoyed my work and encouraged me to publish that I took that step.

Even now I don’t think I would class myself as a ‘professional’ writer. I write because I enjoy it and apparently my readers do too.

What would you consider to be your greatest strength as a writer? What about your greatest weakness? How do you overcome this weakness?

Hmm that is really tough to answer. If I had to pick one thing as a strength, it would be my ability to ‘channel’ a character. This might sound crazy (maybe I am) but not only do I talk to my characters, but their lives play through my mind like a movie. When I’m writing describing something it really is exactly that. I see characters and scenarios in my mind long before I start to put pen to paper. This makes my characters much more real for me and I hope for my readers too.

My weakness as a writer is remembering I’m writing fiction. Too often I fall into the trap of writing too succinctly. This is a direct result of my training as a journalist. Why use 100 words when 10 will do? So sometimes I forget that I need to add descriptions and nuance for the benefit of the reader. But I’m working on it!

 Tell us about the place where you live. Have you ever derived any inspiration from your home or from anywhere you have visited?

I live in Melbourne, Australia which according to the ‘experts’ is one of the world’s most liveable cities. Australia in general is a fantastic place to live. The stereotype ‘laid back Aussie’ is well-deserved, and I’m no exception.

We have brain melting summers and freezing cold winters. We can proudly boast some of the most dangerous and poisonous creatures on the planet. Never a dull moment in the Land Down Under. 

When I’m writing I try to avoid making cultural references, only fellow Aussies would be familiar with colloquialisms.

Which book, if any, would you consider to be your greatest influence and inspiration?

There is no one particular book, but certainly Alexandre Dumas is easily my greatest influence. A lot of his early work was written in serial for newspapers, for which he was paid per word. Hence the reason his writing is verbose to the extreme. However he never seems to get bogged down and bore the reader. If I can ever write half as well as him I will be ecstatic.

What drove you to write about Vampires?

Selfish curiosity pure and simple. I was not happy with how many assumptions are made about vampires and the complete lack of explanation in most vampire fiction. All the myths are just accepted as fact, no one seemed to dare challenge that. (Don’t get me started on vampires that sparkle.)

So when I had the time I collated every question I could think of, all the myth and everything I could lay my hands on relating to what we accept as ‘vampire portrayal’.

Then there is the one-dimensional view of vampires – they drink blood. To focus on vampires only as blood drinkers is like summing up humanity as oxygen thieves. I simply couldn’t believe that blood was the only thing that motivated vampires.

Given that I couldn’t really find my answers or any satisfaction elsewhere, I decided to do it myself.

What do you think is the attraction for Vampire fiction? Why is it such a popular topic?

You’re really not going to be happy if I say ‘I have no idea’.

I think escapism plays a big part in their appeal. The opportunity to take a journey with someone who is powerful, charismatic and more than just a little enigmatic. They are so unlike humans, but because they look human we want to relate to them. Sometimes this happens with dire consequences and sometimes not. All depends on the author.

For me it’s about observing and scrutinising humanity from a unique perspective. Who else can sit in judgement of mankind if not a superior being like a vampire?

In a fight between all the greatest Vampires of fiction, who do you think would come out on top?

Anne Rice’s ‘Lestat’ would give most a run for their money. Although I’d like to think my ‘Bektamun’ would easily put him on his backside.

‘Spike’ from Buffy or Eric (Sookie Stackhouse series) would certainly wreak havoc while charming the pants off more than few in the meantime.

It would be fun to see… Could someone arrange that please?

What about in some other contest such as sexiness or dress sense? Who would win that one?

Charlaine Harris really hit the mark when she created Eric, he makes even me weak at the knees and I don’t bat for that team if you know what I mean. I think Eric epitomises the allure of vampires. Old, powerful and infinitely devious all packed into a gorgeous Viking warrior. Forget the TV show (True Blood), when you read Eric you can see/feel his age and demeanour in the way he deals with people.

Ok, time for me to stop drooling.

 How well do you think your character would fare against the winner(s) of the above?

I’d like to think Bektamun could make mincemeat of any vampire which crossed her path. But considering there are few female vampires as lead characters (books, movie or TV) there is no benchmark to measure against.

In any case, Bektamun would go down fighting.

Tell us the basic premise behind your latest novel.

My current release “Vampires Revealed” is an autobiographical mocumentary, narrated by Bektamun. She is 3000 years old and wants to let humans in on the fact vampires are real. Not only that, she goes to great lengths to explain in a way humans can understand what it is like to be a vampire.

It has been described as a “manual for vampires’. While there is some rather tedious information to be conveyed, Bektamun keeps you interested by relating some of her experiences and encounters.

In Vampires Revealed, Bektamun introduced several characters. My next book (which I am desperately trying to find time to finish) starts to explore some of those characters and discloses more of Bektamun’s history.

The big grand-daddy of all Vampires. Christopher Lee as Dracula.

This month is Vampire month on this blog.

What? You say March is a stupid time for Vampire month? You think that maybe it should be another month, like October? Well, on this blog we don’t follow trends we make them and I reckon that this time next year EVERY blog will call March ‘Vampire Month’ and I will take the credit for starting a whole new social trend.

Well, that or, you know, the rest of the internet will just carry on doing what it always does and not be affected at all by what I say or do.

So, why is it Vampire month here? Well, over the next month I will be featuring articles and interviews with three writers of Vampire fiction starting next week with Rebekah Harrington, author of Vampires Revealed. This will be followed by Ninfa Hayes, author of the upcoming novella Bites. Finally, Skyla Dawn Cameron, author of Bloodlines* and the newly released Lineage, will weigh in with her opinions. In these articles we seek to understand the underlying appeal of Vampires, their psychology and motivation and, most importantly of all, who would win in a fight: Lestat or Edward…

So, that is three writers, in three different continents, writing about Vampires in three different ways… Should be something to look forward too…

*If you remember, I reviewed Bloodlines here: http://www.epublishabook.com/2011/10/28/book-review-bloodlines-by-skyla-dawn-cameron/#axzz1nuXKfHgn feel free to go back there to be reminded about how awesome I thought it was…

#amwriting, guest blogging, Rebeka Harrington


Just a short post this one to announce a couple of guest blog appearances I have made.

First off, a guest blog post of mine is now live on the site of the lovely Rebeka Harrington. It is entitled ‘Playing with the Big Girls’ and may be found here: http://rebekaharrington.com/2011/10/01/playing-with-the-big-girls/?blogsub=confirmed

Hoping to do some more guest posts there in the future and maybe have Rebeka post here by way of returning the favour.

Secondly, another guest post of mine is due to appear on the amwriting website (http://amwriting.org/), the blog site that is linked to the #amwriting hashtag on twitter. This post is not due until later this month (27th of October) but I will more than likely post out reminders closer to the time. This post is entitled ‘Feeling like a big, fat failure’ and I hope the title speaks for itself. If not, you will have to read it to find out what it means…
