   Fantastic picture blog, Lisa. You do captions brilliantly, too!

   You make vampires seem as nice as my next door neighbors. Of course, I do like next to a cememtary. 🙂

      Hey DJ Myke!!! *waving*

      Thanks for stopping by the vampire ball!!! (And you’re FIRST!!!)

      I had no idea you live next to a cemetery… Any ghosts?

      So did you choose a vampire dance partner yet?

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!!

5. Jae Lynne Davies June 12, 2011 at 9:53 pm

   Hey Lisa,

   Did someone say “Vampire Ball”? You’d better believe I’ll be there! A dance partner? This is going to be tough, but I’m going to choose Calisto. David from the Lost Boys would be my first choice, but you’re trading card is making me drool. Definitely going with Calisto!

   Good luck with the tour!

   Jae Lynne
   1. Lisa Kessler June 12, 2011 at 9:57 pm

      Hi Jae Lynne! *waving*

      Nice to see you at the ball!!!

      And Calisto is a master at a sexy slow waltz! YUM! You made a fabulous choice… 🙂

      (But David from Lost Boys is yummy too!!! 80’s yummy!!!)

      Glad you like the trading card! I should have them in my hands this week…. Hope you win!!! 🙂

      Thanks for dancing in and commenting!!!

7. Nicola Marsh June 12, 2011 at 11:17 pm

   Vampire Ball sounds like fun, Lisa!

   I’m going to nab Edward Cullen to fill my dance card.
   Nice sparkly younger man 😉
   1. Lisa Kessler June 12, 2011 at 11:19 pm

      Hi Nicola! *waving*

      The more vampires the merrier the vampire ball, right? 😀

      Just don’t let Lestat see Edward sparkling… LOL

      Hi Ashley –

      Thanks for stopping by the Ball!!! And thanks for subscribing…

      Did you find a delicious fanged dance partner? 🙂

      Lisa
9. Melissa Myer June 13, 2011 at 1:03 am

   I am totally enamored with Gary Oldman of Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.” Okay, let’s qualify this: the *young* and hot-looking Dracula; not the creepy old guy with the gnarled hands and big white “poof” hair who tortures Keanu Reeves, LOL! The cinema scene where he tells Mina, “I have crossed oceans of time to find you” in that Old World voice is totally sigh worthy. Later, he wipes away her tears and gives her a handful of diamonds. Okay, so the movie wasn’t totally perfect, but Oldman made *the* best Dracula ever! 😀

   P.S. Obviously, I have a thing for vampires looking for reincarnations of their soulmates. 🙂
   1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 10:24 am

      Hey Melissa! *waving*

      So Bram Stoker’s Dracula is totally your dance partner!!! 🙂 Have fun!!!

      And I’m SO glad you have a soft spot for vampires who wait for their reincarnated loves…. LOL

      Thanks for stopping by the Vampire Ball and commenting!!!

      Lisa 🙂
10. Michelle K June 13, 2011 at 4:11 am

    It sounds like a fun time and love all the vampires that will be there. I used to watch Dark Shadows all the time back in the day. I do like the newer Barnabas Collins though and wouldn’t mind him on my trading card!
    1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 11:44 am

       Hi Michelle –

       You have great vampire taste!!! I think Johnny Depp is going to be a deicious Barnabas Collins!!! YUM!!!

       Thanks for stopping by the Vampire Ball!!!

       Lisa 🙂
11. Kerry June 13, 2011 at 4:48 am

    Fun! Sherri – you’ll have to share Mr. Depp, lol…
    1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 11:46 am

       Hi Kerry –

       I think a few people will be dancing with Mr. Depp!!! LOL Looks like Barnabas Collines is going to have a full dance card! 🙂

       Thanks for stopping by the Vampire Ball…

       Lisa 🙂

14. Theresa Meyers June 13, 2011 at 6:14 am

    Hummm, the Antonio vampire or the Brad vampire…choices, choices. Are you sure I can’t have both? Thanks for the invitation to the ball! meyersnovels at aol dot com
    1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 12:51 pm

       It is a tough choice… Antonio’s Armand has a delicious accent too… I’m a sucker for that!

       Calisto has a great Spanish accent too… LOL

    1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 4:07 pm

22. wyndwhisper June 13, 2011 at 8:45 am

    Hi Lisa,
    My favorite Vampire is actually late to your ball, he is Dracula played by Frank Lugosi . i say him play this part when i was younger(not telling how young) and i decided that no one has played it as well or as sexy since.
    so he gets my vote.
    trvlagnt1t@yahoo.com
    1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 7:29 pm

       Hi Wynd! *waving*

       Do you mean Bela Lugosi? 🙂 He’s definitely a classic! And I’m sure he’ll be thrilled to find you waiting for a dance with him when he arrives!!! Yay!!!

       THanks for stopping by the Vampire Ball!!! Great to meet you!

       Lisa 🙂
       1. wyndwhisper June 17, 2011 at 7:40 am

37. kvtaylor June 13, 2011 at 7:56 pm

    Better believe I’m in–and I’m definitely filling up my dance card with Pam. And Pam. And wait, did I mention Pam?
    She’s gotta be the hottest vampire ever… or maybe that’s just me. (Plus, she’d be more likely to dance with me than with a dude. Loooooooooooove!) I’m also into Mina Harker (the graphic novel version is even hotter).

    And for the male half of my card… hm. I like the suggestion of Stuart Townsend as Lestat in QotD–though that film was unfortunate in many ways, at least Lestat and Akasha were hot, right? And for my final dude… Frank Langella as Dracula. So good. So very, very good.

    I’m already your friend on twitter and goodreads–why did I not have your author page liked on fb?! (Okay, it’s my personal account under my actual name, but it’s near enough.) Done!

    (kate AT kvtaylor DOT com… which you might’ve guessed!)
    1. Lisa Kessler June 13, 2011 at 9:25 pm

       Ha! I did guess!!! LOL Hi Kate!!! *waving*

       I’m not over here answering blog comments when I’m supposed to be emailing you a Fae Awareness blog… Nope! LOL I’m multi-tasking! 🙂

       You are the second person to mention Frank! I need to look up that version of Dracula! I’ve never seen it…

       Thanks for stopping by the Vampire Ball!!! Enjoy dancing with both the boys AND the girls!!! LOL Wouldn’t Catherine Zeta-Jones be a gorgeous vampire? Wow!

       Lisa 🙂
       1. kvtaylor June 14, 2011 at 6:11 am

          Oooh yeah, she would!

          You know who else? Susan Sarandon from The Hunger. (I’d say David Bowie too, but that’s just too sad :/)

          Love the review–working on getting a cool movie poster for it now 😀 Thank you, Lisa!
          1. Lisa Kessler June 14, 2011 at 9:31 am

    +1: Thank you for joining the blog hop. Your books sound great and your vampire Calisto is yummy! Would love to let him nibble on my neck. I would love to bring some of the guys from Lynsay Sands and Kerrelyn Sparks vampire series with me, especially those lovely Scottish Highlander Vamps from Kerrelyn Sparks’ series.

       Lisa 🙂
43. Isis Nocturne June 14, 2011 at 11:55 am

    I’d have SPIKE on my dance card for most of the night because he actually knows how to waltz, etc since he was Victorian in his human life, but I’d also leave room for Van Helsing’s Dracula just because he’s such a charmer. 😉

    And WOW! Calisto is GORGEOUS!!! mmmmmmmm!
    1. Isis Nocturne June 14, 2011 at 12:02 pm

       Oh, and lest I forget, I also subscribed to your blog, liked your writer page on FB, added you on Goodreads as a friend, added Night Walker to my TBR list, and signed up for your newsletter, as well as following you on Twitter. 🙂 Should I win *fingers crossed, as I REALLY want those trading cards*, my email is isisnocturne1369 (at) me (dot) com.
       1. Lisa Kessler June 14, 2011 at 12:14 pm

          Thanks for connecting with me everywhere Isis!!! You rock!!! 🙂 The book trailer is going to be unveiled later this week and my newsletter peeps are going to get the sneak peek! 🙂

          Lisa
    2. Lisa Kessler June 14, 2011 at 12:02 pm

       Hi Isis! *waving*

       Not only is Calisto gorgeous, but he’s got a Spanish accent and taught Kate to waltz at the edge of the waves of the pacific ocean…. *sigh* He’s totally yummy! 🙂 So save him a space on your dance card too!!! 🙂

       Although Spike & Van Helsing’s Dracula are both super yummy picks also!!!

       Thanks for stopping by the Vampire Ball!!! I hope you win! 🙂

44. Diane Taylor June 14, 2011 at 12:19 pm

       I was trying to stick to movie vamps, but I’ve already sent invites to Bons Temps for Vampire Bill & Eric so no worries!!! I’m sure they’ll be here with their dancing shoes on shortly! LOL

             Hee! What a great list!!! 🙂

             I already sent a late invite to Spike and Nicholas Knight… We’ll see if we can get the rest of your immortals to visit too!!! LOL

             Thanks for visiting the Vampire Ball Diane!!! You rock!!!

             Lisa 🙂
             1. Diane Taylor June 16, 2011 at 9:06 pm

                I’d also add Julian Luna from Kindred: The Embraced but.. unfortunately, he’s no longer with us in Unlife… or death. *His human actor was killed in a motorcycle accident after taping only 8 episodes*
             2. Lisa Kessler June 17, 2011 at 4:31 am

                Oh no!!! That’s sad…

                I’ll have to look him up…

                Lisa

51. Michelle Bourassa June 14, 2011 at 11:05 pm

    Liking you on FB and already getting your newsletter.
    My choice is definitely Calisto, or Armand (movie version) Dark, sexy, the deep voice and accent. Some sexy hot latin dances would be fantastic.

    1. Lisa Kessler June 14, 2011 at 11:27 pm

    1. Lisa Kessler June 15, 2011 at 11:34 pm

       Hi JoAnne!!! *waving*

       Wasn’t that a cool werewolf??? LOL He was wandering around the Vampire Ball at RT! LOL Silly werewolf! 🙂

    🙂 SydneyGen – SydneyTwimum
    1. Lisa Kessler June 15, 2011 at 11:39 pm

58. Jennifer June 15, 2011 at 9:05 pm

    I think my dance card would have to be Louie, Lestat’s friend. He’s sufficiently dark and creepy, but also has a sort of engaging and endearing charm. Definitely an intriguing dance partner.
    1. Lisa Kessler June 18, 2011 at 10:01 pm

       Hi Jennifer! *waving*

       I bet Louis would be an intriguing dance partner… But I’m a sucker for bad boy Lestat! LOL

61. Diana June 16, 2011 at 12:46 pm
