im looking for bretherens...i would appreciate it if there would be any necromancers that i could get in touch with...but i doesnt matter what you are as long as you share the occult...my purpose being that i require websites or books that give REAL information and not just lies or made up stories which bother me alot due to the fact that necromancy is an art that many people pass of as voodoo...yes yes, the absurdity of the ignorant!

Anyone remember the author or other details of an old paperback sci fi series in which Dracula was actually from Atlantis, there was a woman who knew judo, an albino man, and their leader, a man who controlled Dracula with a sliver of wood in his heart? I think they fought paranormal crime. I checked it out from a local library a looooong time ago and have never found it since.

What book(s) contain such elemental truths or themes that everyone should read them. I'm not asking what your favorite book is, but what should be required reading, and what's so special about it?

I'll start: To Kill a Mockingbird

Did you want the character punished for his wrongs, did you feel they were justified, or did you want him to get away with it all? Don't put too many spoilers, I'm only done with about half of the book.

If you have the title of a novel, do you underline it or put it in these "". Sorry about blanking on the name. If it is the second choice, do I put the period at the end of the sentence inside or outside them? What punctuation do you use for the title of a story in a magazine? Thanks!!!(cite a source for all info if possible)

Oliver Goodwill is the guy in the new Evanescence video Call Me When You're Sober. He's the first guy I've seen that I think could actually play the role and not look ridiculous. I think he can manage the right attitude for a gorgeous, hundreds of years old vampire.

It doesn't have to be a book and it doesn't have to be a book on writing either. I'm looking for a gift for my daughter's 15th birthday. What would you give to a teenager like her that would be memorable and, hopefully, loved?

I'm doing a paper on names and how they play into a character's trait. If anyone could suggest books where a (preferably main) character's name is "Leon" it would be greatly appreciated.

Also, the same question applies for the name "Noel

I like both Granny Weatherwax and Cmdr Samuel Vimes, but for me the most interesting charcters were:

Tiffany Aching (Wee Freemen and Hat Full of Sky)

and Polly from Monstorus regiment

Also, I admit, I smile anytime an Igor show's up.

Frozen by the moment, in the heat of your presence
I watch you watching me
Do you realize what this could be?
Frozen by your words to me, so far away from you
I write back but you are gone
Somewhere I’ll never know

And I wish you would find me
See what it is no one can see
And you are unfamiliar
We are unacquainted
I am unknown but soon you’ll know
Just how it is I feel, for you.
