Easy Prey: A Collection of Vampire Short Stories
Four short stories originally published to the author's Patreon for the month of October in 2019, now presented in a collection, lengthened and edited for your reading pleasure.
EASY PREY features four short stories of varying lengths where the vampires are relentless, the humans are lost, and the blood is always flowing.
THE DEMISE OF MASON BENNETT
A man hot off the heels of a tumultuous relationship looks for someone to ease his pain at a hip-hop club on Long Island when he meets the alluring Amara who isn't at all what she seems.
JUNE'S HALLOWEEN [lgbt, suicidal ideation]
June is heading home to kill herself after a rough breakup with an ex and generally rough life. She isn't alone. A vampire waits for her--to save her. But this salvation comes with a price.
THE PROPOSAL
A hiking couple sets out for what is supposed to be a romantic evening in the woods on Halloween. Their night gets bloody quickly when a starving vampire sets his sights on them.
BROOKINGTON HOUSE AND THE VAMPIRE WITHIN
When the Englewood family moves into the quaint town of Rumsfeld, they are eager to start their new life at Brookington House, an old fixer-upper with a frightening past. As their move turns dark, they are going to have to face their fears--and the cruel vampire within Brookington House walls--or be changed forever.

Very short but effective vampire stories - I liked "June's Halloween" best (CW for suicidal ideation and plans to commit suicide though) and "Brookington House and the Vampire Within" has a nice storytelling rhythm.

November 29, 2021Love to see new authors writing vampire stories, though these didn't quite do much for me. Writing needs a fair bit more polishing, and the story ideas could have been more fleshed out. Had some good potential, though.
