Greetings,

I have recently updated the information in the Welcome Message which
you received when you subscribed to this newsletter. Some of the
information was grossly out of date, and so I am reposting the
message so that everyone on this list can have the updated, most
current information (see below).

let me take a moment to explain some of it's highlights:--

*** Sanguinarius Statements of Purpose:
http://www.sanguinarius.org/purpose.shtml -- the official agenda and
goals of Sanguinarius: The Vampire Support Page, for all the world to
view.

*** Vampire Guide, Tips, & Advice:
http://www.sanguinarius.org/guide.shtml -- gives useful advice and
tips to all: vampires, blood drinkers, seekers, etc. I'd reccomend
bookmarking it and checking back fairly regularly because it is
always being updated with new things. Contributions are welcome.
Please be sure to be explicit about giving me permission to include
your contribution and your name / nickname and email addy / contact
information. (All submissions become the property of Sanguinarius

***Problems Vampires Have:
http://www.sanguinarius.org/problems-01.shtml -- This is a section to
shed light on some of the more annoying aspects of being a vampire
and dealing with vampirism, "normal everyday things", and the world
in general. Some things are light and fang-in-cheek, but others are
in a more serious vein.

Sanguinarius welcomes contributions to this section as well. Please
be clear that the problem you send in IS meant for this section, and
also, permission to use you name / nickname and email / contact
info. (All submissions become the property of Sanguinarius: The
Vampire Support Page.)

*** The Vampiric Community Discussion & Support Board:
http://www.sanguinarius.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi, a great place to
get familiar with what's going on and various issues being discussed;
hang out, jump right in and make yourself known! Meet some of those
who post there. Also have Bloody Minded: A Message Board for Blood
Drinkers at http://www.sanguinarius.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?
board=bloody_minded

*** #Sanguinarius:
IRC Channel on Dal.net -- Vampiric community chat, information and
support channel in IRC on dal.net -- Converse in real-time with
others in the community; share information & ideas; ask questions,
and just hang out.

*** #Sanguinarius IRC Info Page:
http://www.sanguinarius.org/~irc/ -- has information on
#Sanguinarius, an IRC channel on dal.net for real vampires and the
vampiric community, with regular scheduled chats / discussions. This
page has the information on how to get there, how to download and
install mIRC, when to show up, channel rules, and other useful
information.

*** Articles:
The Index of articles is at
http://www.sanguinarius.org/articles.shtml and contains a listing of
all the articles which Sanguinarius: The Vampire Support Page offers:
information, theories, helpful stuff, etc. Always adding more.

*** The Real Vampire Directory:
This is a searchable directory of all manner of real vampire and
Vampyre sites, services and products; many of the links I had
previously included on my links pages. I hope these will be of great
help and resource to you. You can access links to sites of interest
to those in the vampiric community: informational sites, blood-
drinkers, psychic / energy vampires, "Vampyre" lifestylers; there are
links to message boards, blood-related sites, vampire personals
sites, products, mailing lists, etc., etc. This is at
http://www.sanguinarius.org/cgi-bin/links/pages/ (or a quicker url is
http://start.at/Real_Vampire_Directory )

*** Vampiric COmmunity Events Calendar
This calendar is at http://www.sanguinarius.org/cgi-
bin/calendar/calendar.cgi and is for vampires to post their events,
gatherings, chats, get-togethers, etc. You can schedule your event

*** Questionnaires: (Not currently available)
I have three (actually two, but the second one is in two parts). The
General Questionnaire mostly deals with general interests in vampires
and vampirism; the Blood Drinkng & Vampire Questionnaires are more
specific and detailed in regards to vampires, blood-drinking and
vampirism. All responses are held confidential.

Vampire Questionnaire, Part 2 -- Vampire

*** Sanguinarius: The Vampire Support WebRing:
http://www.sanguinarius,org/vampsupport/vsring.htm -- linking
together sites in the Vampire community which are informational,
factual and can be of help, use, or service to those who stumble upon
this page or others similar.

There is much more, and I encourage you to poke around at good length
on your own to see what all you come upon. And check back fairly
frequently because I am always adding or updating something somewhere!

Enjoy!
