Grampire
Welcome to a new serial fiction! Reminiscent of the silly shenanigans of The Owl House and
the monster of the week format and larger overarching story of the X Files, Grampire is the
perfect coming of age story about two unlikely friends preventing the end of the world.
Welcome to a new serial fiction! Reminiscent of the silly shenanigans of The Owl House and
the monster of the week format and larger overarching story of the X Files, Grampire is the
perfect coming of age story about two unlikely friends preventing the end of the world.
When Malia, a young werewolf, gets struck by lightning while gardening, she figures it’s just
another manifestation of her horrible bad luck. But the lightning strike leaves behind a curious
burn in the shape of the cursed mark of the fourth horseman of the apocalypse, Death.
The rest of her pack is none too happy about sharing space with someone who might bring
about the end of the world, and chase her out of the only home she’s ever known. Now alone,
Malia teams up with an eccentric, sometimes frightening elderly vampire to figure out how to
get the curse lifted, and in their spare time, prevent Armageddon. No big deal! Nothing a plucky
werewolf and her beloved Grampire can’t handle.

What is serial fiction?
Some authors use serial fiction to connect with their readers, and readers can help shape the story with their comments. Serial fiction is receiving a boom in popularity with books like Dungeon Crawler Carl, but it’s not a new method; even classics like Sherlock Holmes and Great Expectations were first serialized work. In my case, Grampire is written in “episodes” that stretch between 4-8 chapters and is reminiscent of a TV show or short story format rather than novel or movie. It’s a totally different way of writing than I’m used to, and I’m having a fantastic time. I hope you’ll join me over on my newsletter, Royal Road (coming soon!), or Patreon
to read it!
