Vera Nazarian’s non-fiction output consists of two books that show her playful and reflective sides. The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration (2010) is a dateless daily calendar that pairs quotations from diverse sources with Nazarian’s own commentary, designed to be used year after year.
Vampires Are from Venus, Werewolves Are from Mars (2012) takes a humorous approach to the enduring popularity of supernatural creatures in fiction and pop culture. The title riffs on the famous relationship guide, and the book examines why readers are drawn to vampires versus werewolves and what these preferences reveal. It is a lighter companion to Nazarian’s own supernatural fiction.
