My fourteen-year-old self is so, so happy in this moment

A Visitor's Guide to Mystic Falls is up for pre-order.

A Visitor's Guide to Mystic Falls brings together today’s best YA writers of the supernatural to talk about the first season of The Vampire Diaries: the characters, the storyline, the magic, the town. From a history of the Salem’s witches from whom Bonnie is descended to family therapy for brothers Stefan and Damon, the anthology is guaranteed to keep the show's viewers entertained—and make them see Mystic Falls, and the rest of The Vampire Diaries, in a whole new way.


Today's best YA writers of the supernatural, and also me. HA, JOKE'S ON YOU, MYSTIC FALLS.

My essay is called Damon Salvatore: Vampire Hunter, and is about the literary and pop culture traditions of vampires who kill other vampires and how Damon turns these on their heads, with comparison/contrasts to Anne Rice's Claudia and Stephenie Meyer's Jasper, as well as Blade and Vampire Hunter D and Angel and stuff.

And yes, I do mention Vampire Pete Wentz.
