I would rather have someone blow up my phone with messages because they care about me than constantly be left empty handed and unsure about how someone really feels about me

what they say: I'm fine

what they mean: Why is there so little Vampire Chronicles fan activity or content? Where is the fanbase? I understand that it's older but the appeal is still massive. This is something that you can like for years and years and not get over. Why is it there aren't hoards of new fans every year? What can you want more than beautiful bisexual vampires? I mean Anne Rice practically invented the modern vampire genre. There's dozens of shows and book series that owe their creative careers to her. She is one of the bestselling writers of all time!!! The fact that there isn't a bigger active fanbase especially since Prince Lestat's release kind of blows my mind. I mean there was even a blockbuster motion picture with an allstar cast. How are there not more new young fans? How do we get more? Like I know so many people who have seen and enjoyed the movie but where is the huge cult following behind the film and the books?

You Want to know why?

Because Anne Rice likes to sue your gloriously blushing butt-cheeks off if you DARE to produce fanfiction of her characters and works.

And most book based fandoms thrive from fanfiction, the telling of stories how it could be (or should be) or what might have happened IF ONLY.....

Then fanarts are created for said fanfictions and for the original books as well, if they have content that is worth 'arting' for. But Anne Rice isn't loyal to her characters and one of the reasons she likes to sue fanfiction-writers is because they might have better ideas than she. Or the same and it might look like she was stealing that idea.

Then there is the fact that her books have lessened in quality with each new book. (An oppinion many of the fans I know share.)

From MY point of view... only two and a half books are even worth reading (out of thirteen)and one movie worth watching ("Interview with the Vampire"! I wouldn't bother watching "Queen of the Damned"...), because she doesn't care to check canon facts, names, dates and characters.

The only one she cannot possibly write OOC is Lestat, because he canonly is all over the place with his ego anyway.

This Fandom, for most parts, lives on Head-Canons. Like "Imagine Nicolas de Lenfent faked his death somehow" or "What if Akasha and Enkil had actually loved each other till the very end and they had a deal to come back together after her little interlude with Lestat and playing goddess".

And how do you present your Head-Canons to the fanbase? Mostly through fanfiction. (Which you can get your pretty butt sued off for.)

Most activity in the VC-fandom is limited to roleplay and some fanart/cosplay. Because she hardly can sue that.

And that is why there is so little movement in the fandom. We enjoy what good she did (Creating the characters we love) in silence, keeping to ourself with few friends in many little covents, so to speak.

well my parents were living off of credit cards assuming my mom was going to get ssi. I told them only 30 percent of applicants get in on the first try, and that we can’t live that way. Of course my mom was denied. And now they’re telling me they cant afford to financially assist me at all. And Im like yep every time they say not to worry definitely worry. Then there plan is to get it the second time around. and i’m just like great.
