Told from the first-person perspective of “Count” Dicce, YOU’RE A VAMPIRE – THAT SUCKS! arrives just in time for Halloween, when many of us discover that our lackluster fitness routine has allowed us to become an easy target, subject to an eternal transformation for which we are ill-prepared. Being bitten by and turned into a vampire isn’t the glitz and glamor that Hollywood makes it out to be. In fact, one out of five newly turned vampires will succumb to a slew of easily avoidable and common pitfalls within their first few months as a nightwalker—tempting garlic-laced Italian food and silver jewelry are only a few of the things that will have to go.
ABOUT “COUNT” DOMENICK DICCE
When Domenick discovered you could get paid for pretending to be a Ghostbuster, a Jedi or superhero, he knew acting was the career for him. It was watching the outrageously hilarious characters on Saturday Night Live that helped him shape the type of actor he wanted to become. Always on the lookout for ways to satisfy his intense desire to act, he began writing short YouTube sketches. These videos would unlock his love of writing. In addition to writing scripts, he began to create novels and short stories. Once again, he found himself drawn toward the more comedic characters and stories. Basically, he’s an actor, writer and all-around creator of fun. This is his first book.
