My wonderful agent Laurie heard back from Delacorte. They have no interest in Vampire High 3 and 4. Number 2 has not been selling well enough. Well, times are tough.

But I keep thinking that I may just write them anyway, offer them as downloads, and see how they do. Certainly the profit margin for the writer is very much better than mainstream publishers offer. If I could figure out a way to get good editing -- and I may have done that -- that would be a big step forward. So, it may happen.

After all, it's hard to kill a vampire.
