  • About Vee

     

    Photo credit: D Sharon PruittSince 1992, Vee has been blaming her deep love for anti-heroes on Damon Salvatore. She has a questionable addiction to details, a skewed sense of humor, and a tendency to ask questions no one else cares to know the answers to. Her uncanny ability to discover even the most obscure information helps to make the site as detailed as it is. She is American, resides on the West coast, and lives in fear of chai deprivation. She also likes music, a lot. Email Vee.
