Guest blog (and giveaway!) at The Bradford Bunch

Today I'm guest-blogging at The Bradford Bunch about some of the weird stuff I learned while researching Wicked Game.

Come learn about:

— "Real" vampires (real people who drink the real blood of other real people--really!)
— The oldest con artist trick in the book (page 122)
— How good a guitar player you have to be to acousticize (yes, it's a word, as of....now) Nirvana's "Drain You."

Oh, and one lucky commenter wins...a signed copy of Wicked Game!

NOTE: to enter, you must comment over there at the actual post, though you're welcome to comment here as well.

What a blast to see my daughter on the cover of your new book. And of course I'll have to read it, as it sounds fascinating. XXOO N

Just read Wicked Games in one sitting. Great read, Jeri!

I loved Requiem For The Devil so much, too.

Anonymous: Your daughter?? Do tell. :-)

Writtenwyrdd: Thanks so much! I'm glad you liked the books. One sitting, wow. I don't think I've ever done that--I'm such a slow reader. Sigh...
