Darn tootin'! I think that's a great idea. I love her Vampire

Power. All that raw, unmitigated, hellfire power.
I would trade life for it in a second; The power
would be worth the risks; The losses.

No, I'm not into controlling people; Quite the
opposite. But sometimes, I get this rush, usually
brought on by fear or pain, the adrenalin surging
through my body, becoming a beast, so much more
than what I normally am. And to have that endlessly
would be heaven.

Interesting...  I also thought Queen of the Damned was substandard,

I believe that Rice is Catholic.  (I do know for sure that she is Christian.)
I'm not sure if she's a practicing one or not though.  An interesting side note
is that the reason she used pen names for her erotica is so she wouldn't
offend her father who is very religious.  I guess the purpose is defeated now
with all the "Anne Rice writing as..." pronounced on all her other novels.

The Enclave is a writers' BBS in Boulder Creek, California.  (See
sig below.)  And as well, we have our contingent of darkly inspired
poets, goths, and vampire fans (both turned and "bait").  We "do"
vampires on The Enclave; we cater to the sanguine tastes of the

*chuckle* Mass murderer? It's Darwinism in its simplest
form. Kill or be killed. Humans have evolved to form a
more efficient killing form - and Vamp[i/y]res are
merely a further advancement. Not that they *have* to
kill; It's merely easier.

I've read a lot of myths, and a lot of Explanations as
to the true nature of vampyres. I tend to think of them
much in the way as they are outlined in "The Maserquade"
simply because it seems to be free of fluff. Pure reality.

In the _Queen_ they're described as having "tiny cores of physical matter 
and great bodies of whirling energy which she [Mekare] compared to storms of 
lightning and wind." and "I suspect that they are matter and energy in 
sophisticated balance as is everything else in our universe, and that they 
are no more magical than electricity or radio waves, or quarks or atoms, or 
voices over the telephone..."

They are described in a similar manner in _The Vampire Lestat_, where King 
Enkil declares them to be spirits who "are maddened that they do not have 
bodies". 

There's a clear evolution of ideas happening here, from a widespread folk/ 
religious belief concerning spirits (lust after flesh) in _Lestat_, to a 
natural phenomena in _Queen_, to a biological theory in _Witches Hour_. A 
"tiny core of matter" isn't a biological theory, but is rather more 
reminescent of new age palaver. Her description of spirits (or at least some 
spirits) as biological entities that might engage in genetic experiments to 
breed a human being close enough to them that they can meld, is a novel 
approach.

     Funny someone should mention this.  I just finished making my
first set of dental-prosthetic fangs in a local dental lab.

     It may take a while to get used to working with the stuff.  My
familiarity with dental anthropology helped.  It isn't so difficult,
however that you should be paying bou-coups of $ to have 'em made.

     I'm considering making them for some of the locals ...

I have read it, "The Tale of The Body Thief".  It is OK but not her best effort.
It is still better than the majority of other garbage  being written.

Long live Anne Rice.
