Manly &#8211; including the Black Point series (with new books) and Blood Eclipse will also have new homes&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, in the meantime, to celebrate, I want to\u00a0let you know I will be doing some free stories in my Waikiki Vampire series and to kick this off, my lovely friend, gay porn director John Bruno gave\u00a0me the\u00a0astonishing gift of this cover for what I am calling the Waikiki Vampire Chronicles. The cover art\u00a0features the simply divine retired gay porn star Leo Giamani. He could only look better\u00a0if he had fangs.<\/p>\n<p>These stories will appear for free on my blog starting this weekend so stay tuned!<\/p>\n<p>As soon as I have firm release dates for the re-released books I will let you know. This is the best place to check, right here on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ajllewellyn.com\">www.ajllewellyn.com<\/a> and you can always email me.
