Writing a novella – ‘Of Gods and Vampires’ (coming soon)

December 12, 2024

I wrote a thing. For Christmas. It is not ‘Christmasy.’

When I say that I write it for Christmas, that’s not entirely true, it just happens that it’s basically finished, and it also happens to be mid-December.

‘Of Gods and Vampires’ is a short novel following the adventures of two characters from Denouement (the first one.) It’s a pop-SCIFI adventure novel which is episodic and at times high action. If you have never read a Denouement story, then you may not ‘get’ the setting but hey, give it a go, you may like it.

Ta’ra and Raf, our two heroes are covert operatives of an ‘active’ force which is part of a religious order. They try their best to stay out of trouble, but between turning into bats, defying gravity and fighting armies of werewolves, trouble is where they start. Also, there’s a dragon, which is pretty cool.

A little while ago I decided that making money out of my writing was not something which was a huge motivator for me, so I’ll be making it available on this site a few days before Christmas. As has become my habit with these things, I will publish the text here, as well as the PDF, but if you want an ePub you will have to go to Itch, where you can ‘pay what you want’ for it, starting at nothing. It will, eventually make its way to kindle, but likely not until the final Denouement book is released.

The novella will be posted on this site, at some point over the Christmas period. So… I guess this is a teaser post, which is very modern of me 😁
