The Rules:

• Write the best story you can under 2000 words (include word count on manuscript)
• Your story must be about vampires. Yes, vampire stories are everywhere, which means YOUR story needs to be pretty darn original to make the cut.
• Send it to us at contest@moonlit-path.com by September 24th.


The Prize:

The Grand Prize winner's story will be published in the October issue of Tales from the Moonlit Path and the author will receive an autographed copy of T. Lucien Wright's novel, Thirst of the Vampire. Thirst has received critical acclaim, and is available at many libraries around the country as well as at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.

 

Though nothing gives vampire Philippe Brissot greater pleasure than a taste of blood, his greatest delight is his quest for vengeance against the Marat family. Through the centuries, he has carried out his mission . . . and now it's almost complete. But the only remaining Marat is unaware that his every move is being watched by a bloodthirsty killer.

 

 

 

Honorable Mentions will be published in the October Issue of Tales from the Moonlit Path.
