I wrote The Less-Than-Brilliant Life of Norman sometime in the late 1980s. In the comments before the story, I wrote - way back then - that the inspiration for it had come to me while donating blood with a friend and co-worker at the time, Sue Blackwell (who'd subsequently resume her maiden name, Hania, before marrying again, if my memory serves). That little tidbit of info places the writing somewhere around 1988 or 1989, I think.
In re-reading it today, I loved the notion of a hapless vampire. I don't think I'd encountered one anywhere at that point - in fiction, I mean! - but have since, of course, seen them in episodes of Buffy, at least.
