About Barbie
Hello..
I am 24 years old living in the Southernmost tip of Texas, I am a sanguine vampire awakened since the age of 12, or 6th grade.
I am the co-editor of the Vampire Church Newsletter, and have been actively involved with the Vampire Church since August of 2000. I was made council in October of 2001 and have been working with the Newsletter since then. I am the Managing Director of the Texas Vampire Association which is headed by Damien Daville. I began in that role a few months ago and have seen it grow. I do not spend much time in the offline community due to the relative remoteness of where I live however, I do try to keep contact with other vampires in my area.

Hey all,
I have learned a lot from the general list and from the
Associates in the VC. First, from the general e-list, I've learned
that there are others with far more experience than I in the
community, both offline and online. However, from the general e-list,
and moderating it, I've also seen the lengths some people will go
through to make themselves seem "more" special, vampiric, or magickal
than everyone else. I've seen people claim they're thousands of years
old, I've seen people claim that they were made, created, done an
incantation to become, or have received instructions from someone
they met to become a vampire. All these are pretty interesting, and
offer a slight bit of amusement, but such is not what true real
vampirism is really about.
From the Associates, and from an editor’s point of view, I can
say, I've learned patience in dealing with others. Some do not have
the time I wish they had, to submit, to help out with the various
programs and the newsletter than I would like them to, but such is
life, and not everyone's is easy. I have also learned of other types
of vampirism that I am able to go into in depth with those who are
associates maybe more so than say the general e-list. The diversity of
the people involved in the VC has shown me so much more than I could
have learned being on my own here in the South, and I am truly
grateful for the opportunity to help with the programs and am
thankful that I have joined such a great organization, and hope to
continue to be active in the years to come.
Eternal,
Barbie
