**PLEASE NOTE** This episode was recorded prior to the coronavirus being declared a national pandemic emergency. In light of recent circumstances,  we have become more knowledgeable and aware of the seriousness of this situation. We did not intend to make light of the situation during this episode. We were only discussing it based on the info we had at that time. Please keep your hands washed, stay away from public gatherings for now, and stay safe. We'll get through this together.

If this had been a video instead of just audio, we maybe would have flashed our titties while recording this episode. ;) Kidding. But we seriously had a great discussion with fellow Houston horror author, Lisa Vasquez. This married mom of three does it all from writing horror, to book cover designing, to being the CEO of her own publishing company, to being a crisis counselor... with a little creative art splashed in between. Listen to learn what it's like writing horror in historical settings, her most sadistic scenes, what inspires her to write dark, twisted worlds and characters, and some tips for writing. With Lisa's extensive writing about plagues in horror and her pre-med background, this was also a perfect time to discuss the Corona Virus, and it's impact on our 2020 communities and events.

Vampires aren't just iconic figures of literary fiction. They aren't just in the historic French Quarter of New Orleans either. Today's guest, Mikael Kage, is a real blood-drinking vampire, and he's here to educate people about his and the whole Houston vampire community's existence. If you're in the Houston area, it's probably no surprise that we have a community of real vampires here. You're probably already familiar with Numbers Night Club and the diverse subcultures that make our city a great place to be yourself and connect with others in alternative lifestyles. If you're not in Houston and unfamiliar with our culture of acceptance, or if you love the vampire community as much as we do, listen to this episode to learn all about it from the King of the Houston Vampire Court. Learn about how Mikael Kage practices safe blood feeding, the different types of vampires, the purpose of the HVC, Mikael's supernatural healing powers, his religious background, his poly relationship with the Queen of the HVC, and what to expect from this year's Houston Vampire Ball (May 15 -16th). If you suspect you're a vampire or have already been awakened, follow HVC at https://www.facebook.com/TheHoustonVampireCourt/ and get involved with the positive mission of this community.

In addition to shout outs and updates, this episode is full of more Netflix gushing with original shows like Ares, Sex Education, Diablero... and Tyler Perry's new movie on the 'flix, A Fall From Grace. Though our thoughts are more insightful than slap-happy funny this time, listen for some good recommendations and a commentary on how each are applicable to our every day lives.

Author Todd Sullivan, is well-traveled, well-educated, and well-skilled at writing horror, so we pulled up a seat to listen and learn. Todd shared stories about his experiences in countries we've never been to, inspiration and vision for his gory, combat-filled horror fiction, the impact he feels his fiction has on the world, tips for aspiring writers, his writing influences, and what it's like to be a black male author writing Korean characters and settings. We learned a lot and know you will too.
