Drooling is out for vampires...no blood dripping down cheeks! It's totally not cool.
Bright red lips, ice white teeth, beautiful fangs, and a cherry wedged between the teeth--totally cool. :)
Vampires have nice smooth faces because they're more...cultured. But vampires with beards remind me of werewolves, not vampires. Very cool for werewolves, uncool for vampires.
Black shadows around eyes to denote scariness or something--totally uncool. I have dark shadows when I don't get enough sleep. It's not sexy. Vampires are sexy. Even when they're evil. That's what makes them scary. They're just too compelling, and you wouldn't think there's anything wrong until they reveal nice ice white fangs and then...it's probably too late. So black shadows uncool. No shadows, super cool.

http://www.pasic.net/classes.htmlSlow starts and sleepy endings to scenes and chapters can ruin a manuscript's chance of being published. Conversely, solid hooks can make the sale – as workshop instructor Terry Spear demonstrates, with six publishers currently hooked for six manuscripts. Setting such practical matters aside, what author wouldn't be thrilled to hear someone say, "I couldn't put the book down"? Strong hooks are a vital ingredient in strong writing. In this online class, which features lectures, discussion, practical exercises, and handouts, she'll teach students how to captivate readers with great openings, scene hooks, chapter cliff hangers, and intriguing back cover blurbs. Participants will master the hook in all its environments, from the query letter through the novel.

Approximate length of tunnel: 2,000 feet (610 meters)
Examples abound of cities built on top of cities and newspapers frequently report on accidental discoveries made by construction crews digging new foundations around the world. And while they may be more common in Europe where dense populations have concentrated for many centuries, other instances exist. Nearly 30 years ago, a young engineering student discovered a forgotten train tunnel that once ran from Brooklyn’s Cobble Hill neighborhood to the East River waterfront, connecting with a busy ferry link to Manhattan.
