Page# 282
Hoping to spare his wife and child the pain of the Etruscan’s treacherous passage to heaven, K agrees to forfeit his own entrance into the afterlife. He is killed in the hills of Tuscany, and in fury, rebels against Evas, the twin-headed goddess of Terror and Decay.
A powerful necromancer in his own right, he finds himself among the living dead, forced to sustain existence by consuming the blood, flesh and life essence of living creatures. K flees the village of his birth to protect his grandchildren and begins a quest for the true meaning of existence. As he travels the earth seeking redemption, he explores the meaning of death, life and the magic that created him.
In his travels, K witnesses the birth of a powerful religion and the death of a civilization. He meets humans and vampires, building relationships and experiencing love, betrayal, and hope. In the world of ancient Greece, Rome, and the Middle East, he follows his quest for redemption.
For over a thousand years, he wanders. Will he find a path to the afterlife, or will he ultimately be damned, forced to spend eternity separated from his family?

* I Love Cats Magazine
PAY: $25 - $75
Interested in new ideas for I Love Cats and request that you either send a paragraph or two about your idea or the finished piece. When using the postal service, ALWAYS include a self-addressed, stamped envelope with a return address. I do not want poetry (as I seldom publish it) but I am interested in feature stories about cats and their owners, (no talking cats, please), interesting or odd happenings with cats, tips for cat owners, health issues, nonfiction pieces, behavior problems, that sort of thing. Please do not send stories about cats that go or live outdoors. I'm looking for a story--preferably with photos or drawings--that is 1,000 words, tops, ideally 500-800 words. I buy all rights, since we copyright all stories.
