Birthday. Present to self: weyr war. Not much of a present, but at least will have a few good battles. Bastard Constantine went and formed his own sept. Jealous of me, clearly. Said he didn’t like the way I got all the girls. Jumped at the chance for a war with black dragons. Other septs joined in war, too. Good news: get the beat the shite out of bastard Constantine. Bad news: black plague on mortals. Heard half the population was wiped out. Oops.

  Day Seven

  Birthday. Present to self: hot chick. Too bad she’s a silver dragon. Still, could be worse—could be Chuan Ren.

  Day Eight

  Birthday. Present to self: hot chick wants a baby. Score!

  Day Nine

  Birthday. Present to self: going to punch Kostya in the nose. Bastard Constantine still alive, dammit. Hides behind other dragons when we meet in battle. Doesn’t respond when I flap arms and cluck at him, although got snippy when called him “Connie” at last sarkany. War: still going. Mortals: dropping like flies. Really should stop war before no mortals left, but Connie too much of a pain in the arse. Kostya: bitching about way am running sept. Ysolde still hot.

  Day Ten

  Birthday. Present to self: none. Kostya killed me. Damn.

  The Dark Ones on Facebook is another piece Penguin asked me to write to kick off the release of In the Company of Vampires, the long-awaited tale of Ben and Fran all grown up. Rather than writing one of the standard Dear Reader letters, I decided it would be fun to see how the vampires and their buddies would interact online. And thus, the Dark One Dies at Dawn event was born.
