Inspired by Witches and Vampires: Mayfair Emerald Cameo

Parlor NightCafe Mayfair Emerald Cameo
If you have read Blackwood Farm as well as the Lives of the Mayfair Witches novels, you'll no doubt be familiar with at least one piece of jewelry described.  The Mayfair emerald.  One does not have to read very far into The Witching Hour before they encounter the first description of this piece of jewelry.

Remembering Anne Rice

Remembering Anne Rice Today, Anne Rice will be remembered in her hometown, New Orleans, at an event put together by Christopher Rice and Eric Shaw Quinn.  Although I am unable to attend and having had a lot going on (being camera shy to begin with almost doesn't even need to come into it), I am still thinking of Anne on this day.

Just the other day, I was on Facebook, looking at what, exactly, I don't recall as nothing much happens over there.  But--up popped a new video from the official Mayfair Witches page (for the series, you understand).  At first, I couldn't figure out those were crystals, but the other items, the sage, salt, candles and Tarot cards, were pretty much a dead giveaway.
