Literary stuff, self-publishing comments, vampire stuff, and general self-serving BS from the author of "Give Me The Night: An Evil Love Story."

Second Bad Reaction
Second bad review, or rather I suppose I should say negative response. So far I have (I think) some 22 or 23 people who have actually READ "Give Me The Night" in its entirety, only one of whom is male to my knowledge. The negative reactions both came from women, one of whom says my sentences are too long, and the second one (who admits she did not complete the novel) essentially said that my vampire repulsed her and freaked her out, which I get. No kidding, ladies, this one ain't Twilight or anything remotely close.

The Review Amazon Wouldn't Publish
This lady was not allowed to publish a review on Amazon.com because she's one of the dwindling minority of Americans who has never actually bought anything on Amazon. But if she'd been allowed to do so, this is what she would have published:
Looking for a new kind of vampire? Look no further than Skoda in Give Me The Night by Martin Scanlan. Give Me The Night classified as an evil love story, and that’s a great description because Skoda can be a very evil present-day vampire. Yet, he has a soft heart when it comes to Becky Carmody. Despite the fact Skoda needs to feed, and kill to feed, and is being hunted by not only the local police but also the FBI, his first priority is Becky.
Martin Scanlan has taken the myth of vampires, brought it to life and dropped it into Seattle, Washington. From the first page to the twisted ending, he has managed to weave together a great story, a moving, intriguing plot, and characters that make the reader cheer for them, feel their pain and even laugh at them. 4.5 STARS!
