I recieved this letter and felt that many of you might be interested. I'm not submitting but I am sure there are those of you who could be helpful regarding this request on Vampirisim-
Hello there,
My name's Jo and I work for Bliss, the teenage girls'
magazine based in the UK. We're currently trying to
locate people between the ages of 16 and 19 (and
preferably female) who are vampires, donors or who
have had an encounter with vampirism.
I found your details on www.vampirerave.com and was
wondering whether you or anyone you know might be
willing to be interviewed on the subject. I greatly
appreciate your help, and assure you that we will
handle any response with the utmost sensitivity and
discretion.
If you would like to confirm that I am associated with
Bliss please feel free to call our staff writer Angela
Watson on 020 7208 3760.
Thanks again
Best wishes,
Jo Knight

Good Luck to those that may respond. :)
Well looks like I'm not going to be able to help. About three years over the age limit.

you KNOW they will just rip into it and pass it off as trollop
oo i might do that it will be funy as my sister reads it!
oo i might do that it will be funy as my sister reads it!
in fact i used to get it and they did an article on vampireisum before under the title freaky
See I wouldn't mind help spreading what true vampyrism is about.
so is this fake? or for real?
I am new at this.. excuse my answer. :)
What are you a money grubbing scandal gatherer sweety i would not respond to that crap if my life depended on it
Heh yeah, people outside the UK should try and take a look at the magazine or their site before responding to it. It's a piece of crap.
After the article, just wait for the influx of eleventeen year olds desperate to offload their angst on 'fellow sufferers'
sounds like a halloween exploitation piece. They'll say that they protect your privacy and do an honest portrayal, but that doesn't sell magazines does it.
A few years ago we had that problem out here in the Norfolk/ Va Beach area. Google Jon C. Bush. We had a loony who got busted for assaulting underage girls, turns out he was a gamer playing VTM, the press made it out that anyone who wore black, was a goth, or vampire was some dangerous child molester or murderer.
It took a while till some of the gamers and Goths came out of the woodwork to defend themselves. The cops were sending in "undercover" cops to places the local Gamers and Goths hung out. You could pick them out from a mile away. It took threats of slander and libel lawsuits to get the local media to print retractions.
It took 10 years till things were safe enough to come out and play. The local goth scene is still very anti-vampire, due to the media coverage and bias.
Do it if you want, but don't say I didn't warn you. Thankfully I'm too old for their piece.
If I want money I would have made some book about stuff I don't put full heart into and sold it on the net.
I would like to just spread the word of what real Vampyrism is. Yet, seeing a few of the comments on the magazine, I will more then likely not help out.
i had the same email, me i am not going to respond, but than again i am also not in the age bracket they are looking for. as far as it being and actual interview study, couldnt tell you.
Well, I guess I'm out......
Darn! I was so looking forward to doing it too........ NOT!
ROFLMAO!
you should try for the interview,scion.
It should be easy.
then follow the rules....and kill them...we can't have people KNOWING we exsist....
Real good, Marius, I've ok with you said : like vampires, sorcerys don't wanna to be knows for the simples humains ! And our forces are in our secrets ! ;)
i think some of us could help :) (not me my english is a bit to bad for it)
p.s. you dont need to say You are a Vampire lol
It is a teenage girls magazine.
It will just have stupid fashion tips for that "goth" look you heard was in this season. Or 50 tips how to have sex with a vampire.
Girls magazines are pathetic.
That's right D...10 easy steps how to become a 'vampire' and all that
Check out ''Is your child a goth'' in the catagory below if you feel like laughing your ass off
sounds good but im too old :( i may look 14 but im realy not
They must have gone through this site and chosen random girls to ask, as I just went into my published email (which I check maybe once a week) and I have the same letter!
Shoot, too bad I'm over 13 years older than what they need... it might have been fun.
Hmmm maybe it still could be!!
i'm too young.... not that I would do it anyway...... I hate age requirements.
Oh Echo- PLEASE come back and tell us what happens... (claps hands...) this could be very entertaining... especially once we get your in put and then read what they write... (skips off)...
Didn't the last issue have a cover headline: '175 Ways To Attract Boys'...?
Maybe they'll include makeover tips.
And a cutters helpline.
Lmao......This seasons choice knives or razor blades..In wicked new day glo colours
I'd be happy to participate. I fit the description and all. Too bad there's no way I'm going to fly that far to do it.
Hmmm..... I would only consider divulging information on vampires (and how I consider myself one) if this was for some sort of occult magazine, or atleast not for some vapid magazine who would only use me as a precautionary thing "Is your boyfriend a weird bunch of bollocks? This test will prove if he is" or the ever popular- "Vampirism in 8 easy steps".
Actually, since we're still playing British terms, the headline would be more like "Real Vampires: The Anti-Chavs"
Like I said, I would only give out my knowledge to a publication that would understand and respect my beliefs, otherwise it might cause any of the following: mass hysteria, land me in court on allegations of "brainwashing youth", or they would just make my story a parody.
yeah looks like it...Echo may get famous....!
Yay I can say that I speak to a celebrity!!!
