I always swore I'd never write a vampire love story because, well, that particular bandwagon is looking a little crowded these days, plus it's been travelling down the same well-worn roads for far too long without much in the way of interesting diversions. But I was inspired by Paragraph Planet to give it a go. So here it is: A complete Vampire Love Story in only 75 words - including the title!
