Day Sleeper

Dale has never liked the new ways, where vampires are legal citizens with all the same rights he enjoys as a human.  He wishes they would go away and slink back into the shadows from whence they came. When he gets an opportunity to leave his old life and start a new one on a private, vampire-free, island, he thinks it's too good to be true. He might be right. "Day Sleeper" was originally published online in The Swamp in 2002.
