The Vampire Blog is no longer being updated. There are a lot of other blogs out there that cover near to or about the same stuff... Plus, I'm really busy. I'm sorry... If you will miss this blog, do email me and let me know. I will print out your email and dry my tears with it, and then laugh and direct you to Google for vampire information. Thanks! DM
