Take a look at www.stephaniedraven.com. The full length Nocturne that I'm working on now is a kind of sequel to Midnight Medusa, starring a knife-wielding nymph of the underworld. I'm hoping my editor will agree to reprint the Bite with the rest of the book. Caffey,

Nice to meet you! I never heard of the Medusa and I love this way of learning about it, through a romance book! And cool it will be a series!! Do you have a web site? I just love reading myths and legends too! I started with Greek gods and then I wanted to read everything romance with them! I'm excited about yours! I miss the Nocturne Bites since I use a EBookWise reader and eHarlequin doesn't have the formats (html, or doc/text) so I do miss these and hope they do put out a print anthology with yours in it in the next one! (I can read other small print publishers books but not Harlequin and the other NY print pubs) Hi Stephanie! Nice to meet you!

Great idea. Classic stories brought to modern times. I would love to see more done. There are so many good ones. The premise of the story and updating of Greek Mythology? Great idea.

When I was a child, the monsters under my bed weren't sexual, they were scary. :) I'm wondering-- as we become adults, and learn more about our own sexuality, maybe we change the monsters into sensual beings in order to alleviate our fears. We like to believe that the people who love us won't hurt us. So, maybe, if the monsters under the bed love us, then we will be alright. Maybe it's about control. That's just a passing thought, anyway. This is a really interesting topic.

It reminds me, distantly, of some things I have heard about PMS, etc -- maybe a related monster theme (really when you think about how PMS is depicted on TV, etc), in a world where women are always supposed to be sweet and accommodating, PMS and so forth is the one time they can be complete monsters and push everyone away. Then of course, the establishment wants to medicate that, LOL. I love the Greek myths, the Sirens, the Mermaids... all of these always luring men to their deaths (of course, the men's weaknesses were never questioned... LOL). I can't wait to go find this. :) Sam Love this — the book sounds fascinating, and I love your take on monsters.
