Question: On your path to becoming an elder, what did you go
through to get where you are today?
Greetings..
Well that has been a long path spanning the last thiry years for me
and has included learning about my own vampirism and the vampirism of
others I have met along the way. The experience of both together has
helped me to understand the subject as well as gain the experience of
real vampirism seeing it in myself and in other people. I was
discovering my vampirism during the 1960s when the subject was not
well known like it is today except for the film version of defining
it. So I started with the thought that I am just a "freak" or really
just different from everyone else in my high school class. I learned
I had significant things that made me different and I set out to
learn more about them. When I got out of school, I started to look
for other people who were like me and eventually found them in the
many cities I have been in throughout the States. I learned about other
vampires by being around them and so then learned more about myself.
This eventually gave me the experience to help others, to teach
others how to cope with the life of real vampirism. I went to many
cities and developed my vampirism even more learning such things as
control and sheildong and refining my emapthic abilities. As the
years went on I felt I had enough experience to help others with
their vampirism and also to help the public understand the subject. I
have been doing interviews in the media in radio, TV documentaries,
and ezines to help the public to better understand real vampirism. I
continue to learn more about myself after thirty years of working in
communities through the organizations I have and the people I meet both
on the internet and offline. I also hope to continue to share my
knowledge and experience with others in the future.
Dark regards..
