OK, most of my books I have put away for now. That, or they're on my floor/table/bed/etc. On my bookshelf:
videogames, CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes, and a The Hobbit book on tape. Stick and Rudder, Wolfgang Langewiesche. It's a book on the physics of airplanes. It has my dad's name and address in it from when he still lived with his parents. Copyright 1944. Strange Universe, Bob Behrman. A book of interesting tidbits about the nature of the universe, physics, chemistry, things like that. Hawksong, Amerila Atwater-Rhodes. A novel by a teenage author about shapeshifters. She's my motivation to write. It's a funny book, though it's not supposed to be. You can just feel her sexual tension. Dracula, Bram Stoker. It's the school library's copy. I feel a little bad about still having it. The Godfather, Mario Puzzo. This book is in three segments and held together by a rubber band. A Brief History of Time, Stephen Hawking. I think that while this book was a best-seller, a lot of people didn't finish it. I did though. I'm not sure how much I retained though. Must read again when I get a chance. Instruction booklet for a TI-83 plus calculator. I don't use the guide much, as I pretty much can figure everything out on my own. The book is easily over 200 pages long. Cut, Patricia McCormick. I wanted to write books aimed at teenagers. I wanted to know what kind of treatment was acceptable for such touchy subjects as self-injury, eating disorders, etc. The Diary of Murasaki Shikibu. An amazing lady. I've been meaning to read the Tale of Genji, but I don't really have the time. I'll have to finish Saiyuuki first, and who knows when that will be. Also scattered around my room: Unfinished Tales, from the library; Dante's Divine Comedy, from the library; Trigun volume 2; The Hobbit, LotR, the Silmarillion; Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. |

That's the way Vampyres should be portrayed. Traditionally, they are inhuman monsters, and it's good when they remain such, IMO.

 I guess I picture Vampires to be quite different from the typical perception. |
