I also write lesbian vampires! In modern-day Melbourne! It is an extremely satisfying thing to do.
And I'm like you - it's really hard to tell anyone IRL about writing or fandom or anything, because there's (especially in my family) a constant pressure to monetise your hobbies. And honestly, even though I could happily live in a castle made of fifty pound notes, I'm realistic enough to know that's not going to happen without a whole lot of time and effort and I'd rather keep writing my own porn and stashing it under the bed.
Oh, god, the last episode of Dracula killed me. Poor, poor, poor Lucy. My heart was breaking for her.
