With all of the debates and crazy and totally insane political crap going on right now it is high time I do an official political poll. You may choose one or more answers and you may do the polls as many times as you want (to make sure it is fair and completely scientific.)

So…

What is your favorite trait in a politician?

What is your favorite trait in a Vampire?

If everybody running for President of the United States VANISHED today, who do you think should run? Who would you replace them with?

What do you like to eat?

I added the last one in case I have a party or have your over to watch a movie anytime soon.

All of the answers will be scientifically tabulated and sent to all of the major news organizations. Thank you for your time.

Vote today and vote often.

April 16, 2012 is the one year anniversary of the blog Vampire Maman. It also would have been the 101st anniversary of the docking of the Titanic in New York City, if the Titanic had docked.

I have in my possession a curious bit of history. This one is real. Not fiction. It gave me the chills to read this and copy it for this post.

In a scrap book is a press release that would have gone out if the Titanic had landed safely in New York.

Rather than throwing it out an executive employee of the White Star line put it in his scrap book. And that is where it still is. And here it is…copied exactly word for word from the White Star Line.

Not long ago “Writer’s Treasure Chest” celebrated its 1st anniversary. I am very proud to have this blog up and its success and progress are significant. I thank all followers and readers for making this such a pleasurable experience and great adventure for me.

There is, however, one thing that I’d like to extend: The chance for many other writers to use “Writer’s Treasure Chest” as a promotional platform.

Do you feel like trying how it is to publish blog posts? To have anything important to say? Would you like to show up on this blog?

Do you have a book to promote? Use “Writer’s Treasure Chest” and contact me for a Blog Tour, a “Featured Author Interview” or a “Guest Post”.

So many things are possible, and I’d like to give you a chance to introduce yourself and your work here!

“Writer’s Treasure Chest” does have a contact form…

I keep waiting for the revolution. I keep waiting for American women to take off the rose-colored glasses and realize they are being screwed.

State by state, bill by bill, American women are being methodically and systematically fucked.

Make no mistake. Bills and legislature passed in the guise of ‘protecting’ women’s health (I’m looking at you Texas) and those which put an unnecessary burden on a woman’s right to have an abortion (Yeah, that’s you Indiana) have nothing to do with protecting women. They have nothing to do with believing in life at conception.

Every time a bill is passed restricting abortion even further, it DOES NOT help women. Every time a decision is handed down allowing a corporation or business to refuse to cover birth control, it DOES NOT help women.

Making abortion difficult to get is NOT GOING TO STOP women seeking abortions. Making a law which requires all miscarriages and…

I was at an Andy Warhol exhibit today and saw a Polaroid photo of a Vampire. Well, a guy dressed like a Vampire. You know what I mean.

From there I had to explain to the teenagers I was with all about Warhol’s Blood for Dracula and the handsome as can be Udo Kier. Lots of blood in that one. Lots and lots of blood.

Udo is beautiful isn’t he.

Frankenstein was great too. Wow. It has been years since I’ve seen his movies.

We went into a room called “The Factory,” where a lot of hipsters and yuppies were all playing around with colored pencils and cute stencils.

I drew something. The teenagers laughed out loud. And I left it there.

Later my husband said, “Jesus, Juliette, somebody is going to see that and be traumatized for life.” Maybe.

I looked at my darling husband Teddy and said, “My favorite…

Strange but true: I trust my children. I raised them that way.

It all goes by so fast… way too fast. That is the hardest thing about being a parent.

When I’m asked where my children go to college, or plan to go to college I expect to get a good response, but half of the time I get negative responses. Now, they’re not going to Monster University or Ghoul Tech. The schools in question are part of the well respected University of California system. Yes, schools like UCLA, UCD, UCSB, UCSC, and of course UC Berkeley. Those schools aren’t scary. Those schools are FANTASTIC.

The comments I get are always about the school being a party school, or a drug school, or a crazy radical school, or a stoner school, or a hairy armpit school. You know, I’ve heard it all. The reality of the situation is that unless…
