So here I am, Julie aka Jules, writing an introductory blog for MVF. I could write pages upon pages about how I ended up here but I’ll try to keep this to the point. Growing up, I read all sorts of books. They provided an escape to different worlds. I can remember reading the “Little House” series by Laura...
read moreby SusanAshlea I was originally scheduled to write a character discussion on Elena Gilbert from the Vampire Diaries for today’s Character Crypt. Well, I forgot. When I realized today was the day it was to be posted, I also realized I had slacked and hadn’t re-read the second, third or fourth books in the series. I...

And thanks to lizabella, I came up with this. Pushing the Envelope And by the way, this blog is rated NC-17. We’ve all read those fics...
read moreOne day four years ago, I was surfing the internet for Wentworth Miller fan sites. At the time, I was hooked on Prison Break and the hot guy that played Michael Scofield. I started posting on a message board, never imagining that the person who would quickly become my bestie best was also on that same board. Long story short,...
read moreThe Fever Series, by Karen M. Moning Character & Theory Discussion by SusanAshlea Who is Jericho Z. Barrons? Well, isn’t that the $64,000 question! As a dedicated reader of this series, I have been waiting four books to find out. Ms. Moning is master of suspense and redirection, and she must have a brain the size of Texas...

The author takes you on a journey through a world where “Others,” live amongst humans and vampires threaten to take over the planet within the next century. The SOF...
read moreLet the Right One In by Meesh I’m not sure what I was expecting when I started “Let the Right One In”. I knew it was a foreign film, and I knew it was artistic, especially when compared with my typical vampire fare. Other than that, I just knew I wanted to see this movie since it was released (way back when Twilight was...
read moreBeta’s – The saviors of the fanfic world. Part one in a two part series. In this first part of the series, we’ll be focusing on what a beta should be able to expect from you as an author.

In that review, I begged people to listen to the album so the band would have more recognition in the US and do a North America...
read moreThis week for our Interview with a Succubus, SarahBella sat down with AngryBadgerGirl and tried to keep the squeeing and fangirling to a minimum. SB- OK, let’s play the getting to know you game for a minute here. What’s your real name? ABG- Eh. I’d say but it’s foreign and extremely funny looking. No one would...
read moreI was planning to write about the donors for real life vampires tonight. You know, the people who willingly allow someone else to bleed them for sustenance (whether real or imagined).
