I chanced upon a couple of odd photos over on Twitter during the week -- birthday drawings of Mr Crepsley! I'm not quite sure if this is a random thing -- if one fan decided to do a fun birthday themed drawing, which was seen by another fan who then did their own version -- or if this is a Shandom thing, i.e. if a group of fans came together and chose a certain date in April as the grumpy vampire's day of birth. If anyone can enlighten me, please do. But regardless of any of that, they're a couple of cool drawings that I'd be pleased to share with you any day of the year. The first is by a fan with the user name of MikeYoshi. I wasn't able to decipher the second artist's name, as it was in Japanese.

I think the first drawing hit Twitter on April 1st, the same day that I was conning fans into thinking I'd retired, and also the same day that I posted the April issue of the Shanville Monthly, which you can access here if you haven't checked it out already: https://www.darrenshan.com/news/shanville-monthly
