Tuesday November 8 is Bram Stoker’s birthday. To celebrate, I have done a guest post over at Cordelia’s Mom Still. Cordelia’s blog is an eclectic mix of personal anecdotes, photos and other interesting things! Feel free to pop by and have a read 🙂 You can also pop round to Not Cordelia’s Mom if you want to see the world from a very different perspective!!
If you’re looking for a recipe, here’s last year’s birthday one for Bram – Irish Coffee Dessert.

Oh, I did not know this was his birthday! It figures he was a Scorpio!

He’s definitely a Scorpio! All that repressed sexuality in “Dracula” had to come from somewhere 🙂
He’s death day is April 20 so for me he balances northern and southern hemisphere Halloween/Beltane – life and death – Scorpio and Taurus.
I’ve just ordered a biography on Bram and I can’t wait to read it!

That is right! The sexual energy, and also the question of death/ life and other Scorpio themes are dealt with in Dracula. He was really a genius. Interesting about the Scorpio/ Taurus balance. As an Aquarius (fixed sign) I can relate to both Taurus and Scorpio.
I wish Bram would have gotten more recognition in his lifetime!

I’m a Taurus so I naturally draw from my Scorpion polar opposite. I can see that enquiring and revolutionary Aquarian mind of yours alive in your work 🙂
It’s amazing that Bram wasn’t more well known in his lifetime.

Yes, I remember, you are a Taurus. That is a lovely sign. I have been told I am a real Aqua, haha. Bring on the revolution! 🙂
I suspect people were just not ready for Bram in his time.

Both the “Cordelia” blogs are interesting and very, very different.
Hope you enjoyed your dessert! I think I need one now 🙂
