I've finished: Carmila by J. Sheridan Le Fanu

I listened to the Audible dramatization, featuring some impressive actors.

Carmila was surprisingly sexy-lesbian for a late 19th century work.

It was interesting to read a pre-Dracula vampire story. The christian elements are more muted and the victim isn't tainted by sin.

PS.
I was introduced to Carmila by the Wizards vx. Lesbians podcast. Though They discussed a different edition.

I finally started playing Vampire: The Masquerade -- Bloodlines on Thursday. And... Of course I liked it. Unfortunately I'm limiting my playtime of it to streaming, so I can't let myself just drown in it and emerge after it's done.

Instead, I made a pic of the Tremere lady I named Sophia that I chose as my character! I made a pretty big mess of it, should have gone with more planning and less enthusiasm :D But here she is anyway. I happened to remember to record the process, so you can have that too.

Rendez-vous tout à l'heure à 20 h 30 pour une projection de Nosferatu le #vampire #Nancy

Mais pourquoi la bibliothèque patrimoniale de #Nancy s'intéresse-t-elle à ce sujet ?

Notre conférencier étant absent, l'événement prévu à la bibliothèque Stanislas est annulé, mais j'aurai l'honneur de répondre brièvement à cette question, sans son talent cependant.

In my new interview with author Johanna van Veen, she not only discusses what inspired and influenced her new Gothic horror novel "Blood On Her Tongue," but also how it didn't start out as a vampire tale.

One thing never taken into account when we talk about Vampire the Masquerade is just how little time vampires have in a day.

Humans, if they live a healthy life, have two thirds of a day to do stuff. In a pinch, three quarters or even more. Vampires have half a day, and no ability to extend that. Plus, their feeding tends to consume a lot of time in itself.

I don't think it is very frequently impressed upon the player just how incredibly limiting this is.
