Tess of the Dhampirs, anyone? These are hilarious, but I can see this quickly venturing into overkill territory, so to speak.

Congratulations on your upcoming publication, Porter. I hope your reading of Alcott is as keen and nuanced as your reading of this blog post.

Authors are a dime a dozen? Not if you do the book justice. My book, LITTLE WOMEN AND WEREWOLVES is being published by Del Rey and will be out May 4th. This was the toughest novel I have ever worked on, because I wanted to be true to Alcott’s plot, characterization, and themes. I took on the project after discovering she actually wanted to write lurid tales, so thought she would approve of this mash-up. I wanted to write it the way she would have if her Victorian editors would have allowed her to add werewolves to her novels. This book is a true work of literature, completed after much study, thought and sweat.
You guys came up with some terrific titles, but, believe me, that’s the easy part.

Another take on the Twain classic: A Connecticut Yankee and King Arthur’s Corpse, in which a sturdy New Englander takes on a horde of Medieval zombies.

Wait a minute – you mean there aren’t any werewolves in “Wuthering Heights?”

One that occurred to me is King Kong Lear. I really hope this publishing trend dies soon or, failing that, that people simply stop talking about it.
