See, I would be more inclined to have vampires belong to Desire. The core state of a vampire is wanting: blood, power. Plus Desire is neither male or female, thus neatly explaining the bi vibe so many vamps seem to have.
Damn. yes.
That friends got me to start reading it after issue 8 with Death came out, because the friends were all a little unnerved that what looked and talked like a sister of mine had appeared in their favorite comic?
Oh, Jilli. I do love you so. And yet I pine that you had to adjust your look so as not to seem to be copying Death.

The funniest moment of that time of my life: I was attending a local fantasy/gaming convention, and ended up running into an old friend who I hadn't seen since junior high (about age 13). I looked like I always did — big black hair, black velvet dress, eyeliner, and a choker with an ankh — my friend had decided to attend the con dressed as John Constantine. He took one look at me, blinked, and said "You aren't here for me, are you?"
John Constantine was a character in another of Gaiman's comics, was he not? The one about educating a young wizard? I loved that.
John Constantine is the main character in the comic Hellblazer. But yes, he showed up in Gaiman's Books of Magic.

Hmm. I haven't really looked at this yet, but it has a fanfic link. I don't know if I should be scared or not.
That would be "The Books of Magic," I think, SA. (xposty w. Jilli)
I did write one Sandman piece, but it's a crossover with an anime series (Rurouni Kenshin). It's here, in case you're curious (she said meekly, hoping someone would go read it).
What I really want to see someone write is a Endless/due South crossover, with Delerium, et al deciding to play one of their little games with Fraser or one of the Rays.

That's adorable!
JC also was in one of the sections of the first Sandman book, right?

Yep. Helping Dream get back his bag of sand from The Dreaming.

BTW, Jilli, you are *not* missing much by not clicking on that link.
