The Utterly Uninteresting and Unadventurous Tales of Fred, the Vampire Accountant | Drew Hayes
Expected July 2014, from REUTS Publications
Some people are born boring. Some live
boring. Some even die boring. Fred managed to do all three, and when he woke up
as a vampire, he did so as a boring one. Timid, socially awkward, and plagued
by self-esteem issues, Fred has never been the adventurous sort.
One fateful night – different from the
night he died, which was more inconvenient than fateful – Fred reconnects with
an old friend at his high school reunion. This rekindled relationship sets off
a chain of events thrusting him right into the chaos that is the parahuman
world, a world with chipper zombies, truck driver wereponies, maniacal
necromancers, ancient dragons, and now one undead accountant trying his best to
“survive.” Because even after it’s over, life can still be a downright bloody
mess.
About the Author
Drew Hayes is an aspiring author from Texas
who has written several books and found the gumption to publish a few (so far).
He graduated from Texas Tech with a B.A. in English, because evidently he’s not
familiar with what the term “employable” means. Drew has been called one of the
most profound, prolific, and talented authors of his generation, but a table
full of drunks will say almost anything when offered a round of free shots.
Drew feels kind of like a D-bag writing about himself in the third person like
this. He does appreciate that you’re still reading, though.
Drew would like to sit down and have a beer
with you. Or a cocktail. He’s not here to judge your preferences. Drew is
terrible at being serious, and has no real idea what a snippet biography is
meant to convey anyway. Drew thinks you are awesome just the way you are. That
part, he meant. Drew is off to go high-five random people, because who doesn’t
love a good high-five? No one, that’s who.
