HIS HEART WAS POUNDING harder than he had felt it pound before as he held out a tentative hand, ready to rat-a-tat-tat on the hotel door. As his knuckles connected with the dark wood, close to the peep-hole, he thought a little prayer to himself, ‘Dear Lord, please let me have the right room number.’
John knew he had the correct room; the text that invited him up a few minutes earlier made sure of that. Even so – he couldn’t help but worry about the wrong person opening the door. He hadn’t seen the lady’s face. Her website showed most of her body but kept her face hidden from the dangers of friends and family members stumbling onto her well-advertised website. The last thing she needed was for her elderly father to stumble across her site and see what she actually did to earn her living.

"Love Life", "Happy Ever After" and "Scribblings From a Dark Place" are still out there, for people to buy (hint hint) but, finally, I've nearly finished my fourth book - "Desmodus Rotundus" (Vampire Bat if you can't be bothered to google what it means).
I had the idea for the (at the time) screenplay when I was fifteen years old. I thought - what would I want to read right about now? And came up with a story involving vampires, werewolves and other creatures of the night as they join forces with Van Helsing and the townsfolk to stop a new evil that threatens to destroy the Peace Treaty that the creatures and Normals (like you and me) have set up.
Anyway, below is a copy of pasted extract of the books introduction. There are a few issues in there with me english that will be sorted by the time it's in print (Christmas). Be good to hear your thoughts.
