Barnes & Noble is bringing out my two vampirism anthologies from 1989 and 1991: Blood is Not Enough and A Whisper of Blood under the overall title A Whisper of Blood: A Collection of Modern Vampire Stories in August, as a big hardcover bargain book--which means cheap!!!
And here's the way it will look (with the blue less prominent) but with a foil jacket treatment.

I'm so excited to hear that Blood Is Not Enough is coming out again.
When I was in college, I stumbled across that collection in the stacks at our library. I took it home and read it in my dorm room, and it absolutely changed the way I thought about vampires. I took it out at least once every six months and reread it, then went on to graduate school and eventually forgot all about it. I had no idea you'd been the editor on that one!

That's one of the best things a reader can tell a writer/editor (not that you didn't know she wrote/edited a book) --that you read it over and over and changed something in your life. Thank YOU.

I won't say more but if you're interested, there should be a new one out in 2010. ;-)

I'm so excited to hear that I can buy the original again - I picked it up in a used bookstore a few years ago, read it to near-shreds, and loaned it to my sister-in-law as an antidote to bad romance novels starring vampires. Naturally, she read it to even further shreds, and it's in about eight pieces stuck together with duct tape.
I guess I can wait until 2010 for a new one, if I can get the "old ones" in long-wearing hardcover! It can share the shelf with the "Year's Best" anthologies that I did know you edited. :)

Yay!

Just wondering, what's the distribution of B&N books like? Is it limited to B&N stores?

Hi Charles,
Yes. Do you have them in the Philippines? I have no idea if they can be purchased from BN.com --I probably should ask my editor how overseas sales work.

Hmmm. I think I got 'Blood is Not Enough' when it first came out in '89, but I can't remember if I got 'A Whisper of Blood'. *wanders off to check under the 'vampires' tag on LibraryThing*
