Vampire fiction is rich with a tradition of worrying about things like drinking blood,Vampire Fiction Injected With High-Speed Hilarity And Mayhem! Articles going to hell for drinking blood, and – lately – dating underage girls and not upsetting their fathers.

In vampire fiction, the troubles are always heavy and vampires more often than not have the weight of the world resting on their well-dressed shoulders.  It’s an old tradition, and a good one – some truly great tales have been told to that effect.

But what surprisingly few authors – and readers – realize is…

Vampire fiction doesn’t always have to be serious – not every vampire is going to have huge, worldly concerns weighing them down… sometimes vampires just get caught up in ridiculous, hilarious misadventures!

So much vampire fiction sticks to the tried-and-true notion that vampires aren’t really ever totally happy – they’re always haunted, romantic folks.  Or otherwise cackling villains who sleep in coffins.

It’s amazing that nobody’s taken it farther than that.  Vampires are such versatile, adaptable characters – you really can do ANYTHING with vampires!  For example…

I write from the perspective that vampires are still people, too – people are weird, quirky, and unique… and sometimes get worked up over seemingly little things!

Sometimes we go to great lengths for the little things – and everybody looks at us like we’re idiots.  They say, “Oh come on, THAT doesn’t really matter, does it?”

And we just have to yell, “It does to ME, dammit!”

That’s where “Who’s Been Driving My Cadillac?” comes in.

When our heroine – the loudmouth, womanizing half-vampire gypsy Donita – discovers her beloved ’62 Cadillac Coupe De Ville has been snatched by her bumbling rival Yogi, she goes berserk!

Yogi’s also wooed away Donita’s girlfriend Hillary, but the half-vampire doesn’t care about Hillary – who was just a “side thing” – she wants that car back.  She LOVES that car.  So many fond memories are wrapped up in that wonderful piece of high-powered machinery, and Donita’s not gonna let it go without a fight.

To complicate matters, Donita and her gentle best friend Katheryne are stuck in a bus on the way back up from Louisiana – they’re close to Atlanta, but far enough away for it to be a major problem.  And so the chase begins…

Convention vampire fiction devices are thrown aside in “Who’s Been Driving My Cadillac?” – brooding, darkness, and misery are replaced with crazy conundrums, high-spirited humor, and authentically human characters you’ll understand… even relate to.

You’ll find Donita’s struggles to regain her beloved car – and trying to maintain her code of honor in the process – to be eerily similar to struggles in your own life…

especially those where most of your friends have told you, “Oh, that doesn’t really matter!”

Yes, it DOES matter.  Goofy little things like that are what makes us human.

Maybe the world won’t end if Donita loses her Caddy, but it still matters to her – and she’s going to get that car back, come hell or high water.

Fortunately, being a half-vampire gives her plenty of tricks to choose from – including immunity to sunlight AND formidable magickal powers!

She’s gonna need every edge she can get, because Yogi, his dopey little sidekick Bobbo, and the two-timing Hillary have got a big head start, while Donita’s stuck in a stupid bus.  But when she finally catches up, look out, dear reader…

You’ll be twitching with tension and tight with excitement during the hilariously high-speed showdown, where Donita uses every trick in the book – including her patented “rat trick” – to get her Cadillac back!

It’s high-energy vampire fiction super-charged with thrills, chills, and spills aplenty!  And vampires like you’ve never met before…

Donita’s a foul-mouthed, womanizer troublemaker, sure, but she’s not a bad vampire – she’s fiercely loyal to Katheryne and usually means well.  Trouble just keeps finding her, no matter what she does.  Know anybody like that?

Meanwhile, Katheryne deals with Donita’s lunacy with gentle sarcasm and quiet determination – she thinks the whole thing’s pretty silly, but she’s gonna stick by her friend to the very end.  Hopefully it doesn’t get her killed in the process…
