You are a vampire. You own a bookstore. You prey only on bad authors.
Literally making the world a better place.
Aspen runs a quiet little bookshop and would like to be left alone. Instead, every night, another writer walks in to tell him about their work. The poet who pays in poems. The novelist whose sci-fi western is genre-defying. The memoirist. The fan fiction author. You decide who gets a long, cold stare, who gets pointed to the sign, and who stays for dinner.
Choose carefully. Not every author is safe to eat.
FIVE NIGHTS, START TO FINISH
Play the whole story of the book: five nights behind the counter, one fire, and one very awkward insurance claim.
A PAPER SILENT FILM
Every character is cut from construction paper and staged like an old movie: black and white, rain on the glass, flickering light, and red only when it counts.
FOUR THINGS A VAMPIRE CAN DO
Stare. Sigh. Point at the sign. Bite. That is the whole job.
WRITTEN IN VERSE
Adapted from the dark comedy book A Novel Appetite by Jesse Bray, with an original score.
