Going to give Aubrey Law a try in one her "Demon Hunter" audiobooks next.
So I've been listening to an audiobook reading this classic story of Carmilla by J. Sheridan Le Fanu. I like it though I have had some disturbing dreams. I wonder as this preceded the story of Dracula by Bram Stoker seeing so many similarities why they didn't get sued like the film Nosferatu did for its similarities to Dracula.

loved the old film of Carmilla, maybe I need to dig that back out
There certainly has been a lot of films and series based on the book. Its seems basic vampire legend as told via an author's perspective. I especially like the lines: "...love needs it's sacrifices...there can be no sacrifice without blood." The latter being the last lyric sung by TDV that uses old stories for many of their songs for inspiration.
Worked a bit on upgrading this profile today. As usual not happy with the outcome. Changed the subheadings to match those of others that come with classic V.R. layout which looks decent but when it comes to adding the gold plating behind the graphics the gold seems to overpower the black marble. *sighs* Going to have to redo it. The rivets are too big thus centering an image doesn't seem to fit it. Though looking at it on Neowise2020 that has a white marble background it looks decent. May have to either photograph my own work and upload it or do without the rivets on plates I have on software I use for graphics.
This not being happy with things is a common denominator in this life. Its like there aren't words to express what I want. Because of this I can't express what I want accurately and end up compromising and then it doesn't fit well with writing. The etymology of things are built on different concepts then what I have after years of meditation with everything adjusted with my elemental donor empowering things. Just doesn't seem to be my time to get things right in this life. It's part of the sadness I feel as a vampire to perceive as much as I do of the cosmos and eternity and not be able to express it clearly. *SMH*
There we go. I finally remembered the hex color number for this font color of red. So today I changed the profile layout in CSS to Classic red. The first stage in updating this profile. Now I have to change all the subheadings like the Black/red/gold to match the rest. Then add some gold metallic colors to the graphics to offset their contrast with the background. It's a chain reaction or a can of worms I just opened. Then update the written content with some editing out and addition of some new stuff that reflects my character in the present. I'm not like others to hide behind discretion letting others draw their own conclusions but rather just being me and being obvious. Yeah it tends to make me unpopular but who wants that anyway? I'd rather go for the hard sell and be myself than some hypocrite trying to be someone they are not. I can afford to be this way because I constantly have supernatural friends that I commune with already. Perhaps some out there are reasoning that they are hallucinations that are just part of a schizophrenic's delusion. Yeah I get that by the way people act around me. But I've been around those crazy people before and can spot the ones that are hallucinations of a broken mind and those that are quite special that have spiritual presence. Anyway, going for this new look on this profile with color coordination. Going to go for the spiritual significance of the colors. In Celtic lore red and black go together much like the red light districts at night. ;)
Once my website goes active I'll create a coven here for this sired profile with same name for my site's domain name that has banner link to here. It's been a long road and many years in the building but I'm finally getting there. The site itself is hard too as the more popular website builders don't give you the freedom to do what you want. It reminds me of a line from a Pink Floyd song-thirteen channels of shit to choose from. When you want it done right you have to do it yourself is just so true but it can take a while. Being hypersensitive I pick up a lot of details others don't as well occult forces others aren't conscious of and have to deal with them. Takes a lot patience. So it is with my vampire and this site. I just can't do what others do with my perception or face my own judgement. It has given me a darker view of things. Others seem to have that ignorance is bliss thing going for them where they don't see the shit they do or care as its outside their and most people's purview. To each their own.
What the hell is going on here? Been feeling a disturbance in the force and its darkside. I'm talking about V.R. here. Anyone who has put time and energy on this site and has some sensitivity knows what I mean. There is f**kery afoot I can feel it. For me it all happens in cycles so I just bide my time and when harvest season comes...
What is it it says at the beginning of the Vampire rave Home page? Ah yes..."
Vampire Rave is the social networking website for vampires and goths. We are a home for real vampires around the globe. If you're looking for a darker gothic or vampire social network, you've found it.
Vampire Rave was designed as an online resource for the vampire community". Kind of bold to express something like that in the world wide web in my opinion so what exactly is it that people expect from real vampires? I especially like how that word the is italicized as THE social networking website for vampires.
