Vesper, I hope this gets through to you, since the last couple of blog comments I've left for you were eaten up by something hiding in the blogging internet.

Anyway, I'm writing a werewolf novel so I really appreciated this post! And I was thinking a bunch of us should do a novel alternating chapters, but that might be a little hard to accomplish with everyone's schedules being what they are.

LW, yeah, they are. :-) I found the second one at a book sale - it's a huge book, of hundreds of pages.

yeeehaw! good find, v... actually, both are!

will see if i can find either around here, though dollar stores here carry no books :(

the first is also a guide to good writing hemingway taught: short words and simple writing :)

Charles, if I can still find it, I’ll buy another one and send it to you. :-) At the store where I bought it, it was sold out.

Fireblossom, I’ve no idea who the disc jockey Wolfman was… :-)
Yes, it’s nice to find things like that. In fact, I might talk about another one in a future post.
Ooohhh, the wilds of Canada…. Watch out… :-)

Michelle, you’re right about the small treasures.
I love the old horror movies. Some, like the 1922 Nosferatu or the 1931 Dracula with Bela Lugosi, have passed very well the test of time…
A wonderful day to you, too.

Thanks, Aine! :-) I didn’t think about trends, but I think you’re right… A gothic ghost story – I’d love that! :-)

It’s definitely worth it, Paul! :-)

Jason, thanks. :-) Some of the old movies are quite interesting. While they don’t benefit of the modern computerised techniques, they often offer much more in terms of atmosphere and suggestion…

Karen, thank you! The background’s in honour of the season.
"Chiller Theater"! – I love the name! :-)

Thanks, Cat! Yeah, I read a lot of children’s books these days, certainly more than adult’s books. But I enjoy them!

Thank you, Gel!
I have visited your new blog and I’ll come back to it. It’s good to have you back in blogland!

Mark, oops! They must’ve had some silver bullets…

This is to inform you that six nights ago when the moon was full, Wolfman made the mistake of stalking for victims in Detroit. He now lies unclaimed in the morgue. He was found without identification or money and it is assumed he was the victim of a street robbery.

Hi Vesper,
We have the $ store in our area, too. Delightfully creepy and fun post!
(I think we "met" months ago via K's blog Old Mossy Moon. I'm now truly back in blogland.)

Hi Karen,
I was delighted you visited and you can read my reply in that comment thread. As a stressful 2009 nears an end, I'm delighted to be up and running full blast.(I have dearly missed the camaraderie from sharing writing.) I even added you to my blogroll, something I need to build from scratch!

Oooh, I love your halloween blog skin! Nice! Looks like a fun book too. I kind of miss the children's books now that my kids are all grown up.

2009-10-14T19:30:01.838-03:00

I love your new background! The Wolf Man was one of my favorite scaries when I was a child. Every Saturday night at 11:00 a TV show called "Chiller Theater" featured werevolves, vampires, and all things scary. Great fare for breeding suspense lovers. Thanks for the reminder.

I'm glad you found a forgotten gem to polish. :) He'll stalk you, indeed!

That's awesome! I may seek that out.

I bet it's worth it alone for the "Full-Color Poster Inside".

Yay! Halloween time! Love the blog decor. :)

Last year was the season of the vampire (with Twilight, etc). Perhaps we're moving on to werewolves (erm, yeah, New Moon...) I'm hoping Hollywood will deliver a really good gothic ghost story soon!

Sometimes it's the small treasures we find that give us the most pleasure. Isn't it great when we can find these oldies? I used to stay up late at night with my great aunt to watch such old scary movies. It was always great fun. Have a wonderful day.

2009-10-14T08:15:14.227-03:00

Clap for the Wolfman, la la la. Oh, oops! That Wolfman was a disc jockey. Well gee, I get so confused. ;-)

It's always satisfying to find a treasure at the bargain store, isn't it? Just be careful, Vesper, when shopping at night in the wilds of Canada. Oh dear, what was that sound, in the shadows??? ;-)

I wish I'd have found it!
