In this episode of Writers Drinking Whiskey, we delve into the fascinating intersection of vampire lore and creative entrepreneurship with a unique author and shop owner who has reimagined what vampire-themed books and business can be. Rejecting typical occult imagery like skulls, Marita Voyvod-Crandle instead curates an experience centered around items vampires themselves would treasure—leather journals, antique fountain pens, and objects that emphasize magic over macabre. This conversation about authenticity in supernatural spaces, creative business development, and the subtle art of worldbuilding that extends beyond fiction into physical retail experiences will leave you laughing and thinking. 

Today’s drinking game: drink whenever we say “vampire!”
