spanning decades.
When, the
manufactured bloods vampires drink runs out,
vampires become feral.
Will chaos ensue?
And when an old friend
returns with a proposition, is
Christophe brave enough to accept it?
Ruth lives in Rothley, Leicestershire, England with her
space obsessed husband Simon and her black cat Violet, who just wants a warm
knee. She found her love of books at a young age and remembers the smell of the
old library on her monthly visits with her mum. Together they would bring home
books of many different genres and Ruth quickly moved from reading teen novels
to digesting adult books.
Ruth was always afraid of horror films, she remembers the
time her mum bought her The Thing to watch, thinking it a nice science fiction
film. Ruth was terrified and her feelings for horror films remained until her
mid twenties, when, suddenly she began to appreciate horror films and began
reading Urban Fantasy books. Vampire films quickly became a favourite and the
idea for her debut novel slowly began to take place.
Currently Ruth is writing the sequel to Origin of the
Vampire and when she isn't writing and promoting her book she loves to relax by
drawing portraits. The great outdoors is a big passion and holidays in The Lake
District and by the sea in Cornwall and Dorset give Ruth great inspiration. But
it was walking in the woods close to home where Ruth had her eureka moment and
worked out the final piece of the puzzle for her debut novel. Walking in the
countryside near home remains a weekly ritual, and of course coffee and cake is
essential before returning home.

What
do I do to relax?
I
love the big outdoors and walking on a Sunday is my favourite thing
to do. Rain or shine, my husband and I are out strolling in the
countryside close to home on a Sunday; and when it rains, we put our
waterproofs on and still head out. I love the feel of the rain on my
face, it makes me feel alive; and the peace and tranquility of not
seeing a soul is wonderful, as we are usually the only crazies out in
the rain.
I
am a passionate gardener. I love to grow my on veg, which as a
vegan is useful, and I experiment with something new every year.
I also love my ornamental garden. Friends and family give me
plants, and I treasure them, I name the plants after the person
who gave them to me. Our garden is becoming a mass of flowers and
beautiful plants and I have started to pick flowers for wildlife:
especially bees.
I
enjoy drawing portraits and normally have a 'creative project' on the
go. I am a bit of a fan of 'Escape to the Chateau'. Like
Angel I love old furniture and nick-nack's. Our home is full of
old pieces and I love to ponder their history. Old mirrors
scare and fascinate me. I wonder who has looked in them before,
and if some of their essence is trapped inside.
