Okay guys! Poll time! I need help with my current project! It's a vampire novel that I've been working on since I was 15 - that's 13 years people. LOL It started off after I read "Interview with the Vampire" for the first time. So I can fully blame Anne Rice for some of it. I have loads of people to blame for this labor of love. My mom introduced me to "Forever Knight" and that just made my vampire obsession worse. LOL And now with Buffy and Angel and Twilight - not to mention Sherrilyn  Kenyon's Dark Hunter series and J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood series - I'm overloaded with how different vampires can be.  So I'm trying to make mine a combination of all of these and have different things going on with them.

This story has always been first person. And I will never change that. The story started out as a long rambling thing like an Anne Rice novel. Then I left it alone for a while and picked it back up in college in a one-on-one class with one of my creative writing professors. Needless to say it changed - it's pretty simple, but verging on "adult" especially with language. I'm sure "bitch" is considered "adult" and I've got that in there as well as a little bit of "sexual" content.

I'm seriously at a loss on whether to make it "teen" or "adult" at this point since I don't have a big "smut" scene in it so far. If you guys have opinions on that, let me know!

I'm doing this with Roman goddesses to be different and I'm hoping I'm not shooting myself in the foot.

If you guys give me any help at all, know that if I ever get published, I will thank all of you personally! <3
