Gow, Andrew, eds. The Seven Deadly Sins: from communities to individuals. Edmonton, Alberta: Leiden Boston, 2007. ebrary. October 1st 2013
A deeper discussion on how the seven deadly sins can be represented within ourselves and within our communities. This is extremely important for me to successfully place the characters within the seven deadly sins. Also looking at how the environment or community an individual is in can affect their personality and therefore cause them to withhold one or more of the seven sins.
Fairlie, Henry. The seven deadly sins today. Washington : New Republic Books. 1978
A deeper discussion on the definition of the seven deadly sins in great detail. Understanding the meaning of the seven deadly sins from the eyes of many is very important. This book also looks at how people scrutinize the seven sins.
Solomon, Robert C. Wicked Pleasures: Meditations on the Seven "deadly" Sins. Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield, 1999
A deeper discussion on the topic of sin, looking at what the word means as a whole. It also takes a unique approach on explaining the subdivision or categories of the characteristics of sin other known as the seven deadly sins. Although this book describes and explains the seven deadly sins in a unique way, the main reason this book will be helpful to me is by its devotion to the big picture; A Sin.
Wright, Dudley. The Book Of Vampires. New York: Causeway Books, 1973.
A deeper discussion on the basics of modern vampire fiction. This book has helped me understand the stereotypic idea of a vampire.

This academic source shares the idea of why people sin. It brings together the idea that as individuals you may not sin as often or as much as in a group. This is important for my web site, because it allows me to help support the idea that others play a role in your actions
"Seven Deadly Sins Of The Air." Quarterly Journal Of Speech 37.1 (1951): 118. Humanities Source. Web. 2 Oct. 2013.
This academic source brings looks at the humanity involved in the seven sins. The idea of humanity is what keeps you noble, or in other words what makes you human. This is ironic to my research because most of the characters I am going to categories into the seven sins are not human act just as humans.
