Friday June 21, 2013 "I was drinking a vampire's blood when the phone rang."

Story potential: ? I don't yet know what the phone call is about.

Stimulus: Reading Down These Strange Streets, edited by George R. R. Martin and Gardner Dozois. It's a collection of original supernatural detective stories. "Original" in the sense that they're not reprints; only three of the sixteen were original enough for my taste.

***Returning to the real world, there's an English politician who's certain his real mother was an alien. Via nwhyte on LiveJournal:

Other people believe equally unlikely things, says Simon Parkes. And anyway, aliens know more about Whitby's needs than Scarborough council does

***Seen at the Wedge Coop: Crapola. Cranberry-apple granola.
