Happy Halloween 2023! Since 2012, I have been keeping this tradition up and I love it. I doubt six people have read this thing in its entirety, but it is one of my favorite stories. If you don't know what I'm talking about, ever year around Halloween, I put up a new chapter of my serial   La Saveur de la Vie ( or: The Flavour of Life), a sensual vampire blood-bath ripe for the season. Some chapters  are shorter, some are longer, they all end precisely where they must. The story revolves around an angry young Vampire with unusual power named Annette, her sexy French sire Sebastian, and the villainous vampire neurosurgeon Dr. Matwau,  who wants her mutated brain for study and dissection. To add a splash of utter monstrousness, an ancient Roman vampire goddess named Zosimus has heard the urgent call of Annette's blood and woken from her tomb to roam the earth once again.  Sound good? It is. This is a good book, but admittedly a strange book, I've done surface edits over th

Part XI  of Samuel Blondahl's  La Saveur de la vie. is now LIVE Dans le Vif du Sujet 2022 Halloween special. What a journey this has been. Since 2012, I have been writing a novel one chapter a year, exclusively in October. I now have a 41,000 word feature length book going into the late game. Chapter XI brings us to the edge of the story's climax, with more sex and gore than ever. This work is unlike anything else I have written or am writing, it is pure, unchained monstrousness, and I love it. I hope you will too. Happy Halloween.  click HERE to read

  I update this site little more than once a year, and I know little of who may care. I am not doing this for clicks however, I am an artist painting a very large canvass under most unusual conditions. I am doing this because I am quite mad. On some distant horizon, this forgotten blog will be a book, and I will not let it slip, not this year, or the next, or ever, until it is simply, done. So with that in mind, my beloved reader, prepare. September is upon us, and that means Spirit Halloweens the world over are popping up. With the season of the pumpkin dawning, my mind grows wicked, my teeth grow long, and my heart fills with visions of sweet, violent Annette.  La Saveur De La Vie, Part XI  2022 Halloween Special Coming Soon Click here to begin the journey into darkness with Chapter I.

Thunder broke in the sky above, and cold rain beat down in furious torrents, but neither man seemed disturbed by the foul mood of mother nature. Around them, the trees bent in the wind and dropped their remaining leaves in cascades. The storm was late in the season, coming in October, on the brink of winter. Below them, the town lights went dark as the storm knocked out power lines feeding electric
