As you may have guessed, VM Gautier is a pseudonym. I better not say too much lest I be accused of lying. Fiction writers must always tell the truth.

Believe me the "real" me isn't very important. You probably haven't heard of me. And I'll let you in on the secret soon enough.

Meantime, you can go take a look the blurb for my novel, Blood Diva, available as in ebook and in paperback.

Blood Diva is one of those hard to categorize books that with luck might appeal to a large audience. It's kind of like Anne Rice (vampires) meets Jean Rhys (kept women, and literary deconstruction) meets Patricia Highsmith (psychopathology, remorseless killers, etc.) and they all share an apartment in Williamsburg with Lena Dunham.

She needs to kick him out and call the cops.(less)

The problem is unlike vampires, actors get old so chances are if it were ever made into a film all of my picks would be too old by that time. Emmy Rossum might be good physically for the lead. Ten years ago, Natalie Portman, maybe. Five years ago, possibly Rooney Mara. Michelle Trachtenberg is also 29 already, but she certainly has that leggy but waif-like look.(less)

Update Your Blood Diva on Amazon Now!

Good news! Per my previous post, there were some embarrassing uncorrected errors in the version of Blood Diva that went out free (June 22-26). As soon as a reader alerted me, and I realized what had happened (an older version had been uploaded by mistake in December) I made the corrections and wrote Amazon suggesting they alert readers. I don't believe they've done so yet, and they might Read more of this blog post »
