    My Wild Heart Bleeds With Yours: Writings On Lesbian Vampires Preorder Announcement

    She's at it again, folks, she's made another zine. This one is titled "My Wild Heart Bleeds With Yours: Writings About Lesbian Vampires by Sara Century." The preorder is now live (or undead, if you'd prefer) at saracentury.gumroad.com. This is actually my second lesbian vampire zine, but it's so different from the last one that it feels like we're in totally new territory right now. Anyway, preorders help me (and most indie creators) greatly! Thanks so much to everyone who has been so supportive of my zines, I can't tell you how wonderful it's been.
