This is just so fascinating and must go back and read all the stories. I will try to fit at least 4 or 5 in each day and hopefully it won't take too long to catch up.

Gypsy Blue Rose,
It is amazing how great the two of you work together. I have reviewed I think all of Dean's all telling Hora Haikus and have gotten to know quite a bit about Mirela, Claudiu, Naamah, Mirela's mother and other characters. Your excellent penned story giving very descriptive accounts of all the events taking place pulls the reader into the depth of this amazing read. Exceptional job in the penning of this most profound story. Wishing you and Dean all the best. Blessings my friend.........Portia

Gypsy,

This offers some great backstory info for readers new to your story or just to refresh those who are following it.

I liked reading it & thinking how it all 'fits' together with the previous haiku & what may be coming in the next installments.

Good job & thanks for sharing. Jan

Thank you for creating this synopsis to help your readers more fully appreciate the story from Romanian folklore that is the basis for your haiku. I admired your "Ying and Yang" analogy, and I too was surprised by Cadiu's "overwhelming urge to protect" Mirela. Your leaving us in suspense is effective. Cheers- Joan

This is great, giving the backstory of your characters. Mirela is interesting because there is good in her, and her mother has tried to stifle that. She was fortunate to find a champion in the witch Muma. You give a great account of the setting and atmosphere of the story. Claudiu and Mirela--it sounds like they are destined to make a match of it. He is quite gentlemanly, in that he resists sinking his fangs into her. This will be great to include with your poems. judi

Gypsy Blue Rose, I love how you have incorporated a bit of history, Bran with your storyline. I am captivated and anxious to follow. That being said, I began writing a gothic tale of Dracula many years ago and created poems about he and a beautiful mortal, along with a few chapters which takes place in Romania. But then all vampire stories do..love your Romanian names Mine is on hold because my muse flew away... lol.. yours is brilliant.. and I am enthralled.. jimi

    Thank you very much, Jimi I am grateful that you are following us along with our book. I am in love with Garry Oldman as Dracula. I think it's a very romantic story.

    Yes, you know Gypsy , I read all of my children Dracula. One of their favorite stories. It sort of replaced nurserie rhymes. Lol..
    Did you ever read the prologue called Dracula's Guest?
    You could definitely write some horror haiku from that.

Interesting read to be sure. Based on this entry it seems this is a book containing both haiku and prose being used to fill in the gaps along the way. It's a good idea since it keeps the momentum going and will help those who struggle with figuring out the subtle meanings contained in well written haiku. I enjoyed this and thank you very much for sharing it.
