At first I’m just like “it’s fucking clapping, I don’t ca-” and then he began to sing and I took in such a deep breath my uncle had to make sure I was ok.
GOOD BYE FRIENDS I AM GONE
If you don’t reblog an acoustic version of My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light ‘Em Up), something is wrong with you.
THIS IS SACRED
I don’t usually reblog music but this is definitely worth it 100%
Here’s Justin Boyer of Bibliophile’s Reverie reading the first chapter of “Prince Lestat” —- which by the way is included now in the back of new printings of Interview with the Vampire, the Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damned —- for sale with new cover art. Have a listen. Thanks, Justin. (via Anne Rice’s facebook)

This is a great, unique little tool I found by browsing for writing resources. It’s name speaks for itself: it’s a synonym finder.
The site is clean cut, has soothing colors, and to-the point results for any word you look up.
For example, when I look up the word “romance,” I get this:
Synonyms: romance, romanticism Definition: an exciting and mysterious quality (as of a heroic time or adventure)
Hypernyms:quality Definition: an essential and distinguishing attribute of something or someone Usage: the quality of mercy is not strained—Shakespeare”
I had no idea what a “hypernym” is. Apparently it’s a word with a more general meaning that a more specific word fall under. Like, color is a hypernym for green.
On the right corner there’s a button to make graphs! So you can trace each synonym from it’s root word, and see how far the other synonyms connect in comparison to others.
I really like it, so I’m going to definitely bookmark it on my writing tools list.
sometimes i think about the fact daniel probs has many excerpts from louis of armand sharing his sexual prowess and he was like ‘this is good playboy material’ one night in 1979 and armand was like ‘oh yes there was much playing involved’
“….But the book as published represents only a portion of the tapes of that interview made by the reporter. Louis told the young man much that was not included, particularly with regard to the master vampire, Armand, whom he had met in Paris. One tale was Armand’s account of his methods of seduction; that is, the art of the vampire at its peak in the year 1876.”
