Who’s behind Eric & Sookie Lovers?
I figured since there are some new faces around here, as well as many, many new followers, it might be a great idea to introduce ourselves before it gets REALLY crazy with all the hoopla surrounding Deadlocked, then later on – the return of True Blood Season 5!
You see, this fansite, Eric & Sookie Lovers has grown by leaps and bounds since its’ inception! I was literally going crazy, because I have a job and a personal life outside of this fansite (believe it or not), with nobody to help me. Sometimes the latest news would break, while I was stuck at work. Sure, I could post things from my iPhone. Take for example, the day the cover of Deadlocked was released…I was actually at my uncle’s funeral, and out of town, I might add. But, it takes a lot longer to post from my iPhone, than my computer. I’m not near a computer at work, so what was I to do? I’m not complaining at all. I’m just explaining why I’ve enlisted some wonderful people to help me out around here. I’m sure some of you have already become acquainted with some of them, but I felt we needed a more ‘formal’ introduction, so you know who we are, how we think and what we like. It helps knowing who the people are behind-the-scenes, so to speak.
That being said…I would like to kick this off by introducing my partners-in-crime, die-hard Eric and Sookie lovers, and fellow Viking sisters! They have really made my life a whole lot easier!
In no particular order…
Lilabitbif:
She came up with the original idea to have a Caption This feature, where we take True Blood scenes and you re-write them the way you want! Her favorite True Blood episodes are “Timebomb” and “I Will Rise Up”. Her favorite character, other than Eric, is his progeny, Pam. If she could choose which one of Eric Northman’s outfits he should wear all the time…it would be the black tank top ensemble, or nothing at all. YUM! Her favorite color is blue. She first fell in love with the Viking in “Living Dead in Dallas”, because of his apology after Sookie was attacked by the maenad. Favorite SVM book is “Dead To The World”. She loves hot cars, so when she found out Eric had a red Corvette…she was literally rolled over by it, and hasn’t been the same since. Her favorite quote from True Blood is when Eric told Sookie in Season 3, “You can invited me in, or have passionate primal sex with me. How about both?” She would most like to see Eric dressed in spandex on the show!
Evie:
Evie is our UK Correspondent. She offered to help me out with posting “Quopics of the Day”, and is now understanding my pain, at trying to come up with new ones every day. (It’s very, very hard.) She is a Truebie first, and didn’t start reading the books until Season 3. TB Eric is her first love, but has since fallen in love with Book Eric as well. Her favorite True Blood characters, other than Eric and Sookie are; Terry, Laffy and Pam. Her favorite True Blood writers are; Alexander Woo and Nancy Oliver. Her favorite Eric Northman outfit is the blue sweater from Season 3. She’s completely convinced that Eric and Sookie are the end game in the books, but is still not sure if it will be the same on True Blood. She is currently obsessed with The Hunger Games (Team Peeta). Complete fangbanger. Weres put her to sleep (doesn’t that happen to all of us?), and she hates Bill Compton with a passion (again, what else is new?).
Nymerias:
Nymerias loves to share her views in our new feature called, “Just My Fangpinion”. She loves being called, ‘snowflake’. Her favorite SVM books are “Dead To The World” and “All Together Dead”. Her favorite color is blue. Her favorite food is Mexican. Favorite True Blood episodes are; “I Will Rise Up” and “I Wish I Was The Moon”. Favorite Eric outfit is the black tank top of doom! Her favorite Eric and Sookie True Blood quote is…Eric: “There are two Sookie Stackhouses. One still clings to the idea that she’s merely human. And the other is coming to grips that…you are better than that.” Sookie: “What do you think will happen once I do come to grips with it? Do you think my legs will magically open up for you?” Eric: “Well, that was saucy, must be fairy Sookie talking. I like when she comes out.” Favorite book quote is: “What was the only thing I valued? His love.” Nymerias is an avid book reader, who’s favorites include; “Pride and Prejudice” and legal thrillers written by authors like John Grisham. Favorite TV shows; Being Human, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead and The Killing. She is also an avid hockey fan, who loves the Detroit Red Wings.
And now…last but not least…ME!
Erika:
Just like Charlaine Harris is The Maker, Alan Ball is The Creator…I guess you could say that I’m equal to both of them when it comes to Eric & Sookie Lovers. I’ve spent a LOT of time with this fansite – from the appearance, to the layout and to everything in between – I hope you appreciate my efforts. My husband thinks I’m crazy for being as obsessed as I am about Eric and Sookie, not only that, but because I’m willing to run a fansite about them.
My favorite True Blood episodes are; “I Will Rise Up”, “Evil Is Going On”, and “I Wish I Was The Moon”. Favorite SVM books are; “Dead To The World”, “All Together Dead”, “From Dead To Worse” and “Dead In The Family”. Favorite color is blue. Favorite Eric and Sookie book quote is; “When you smell like that, I just want to bite you and rub myself all over you.” Favorite TB quote; “If I meet the true death, without even having kissed you, Sookie Stackhouse. It would be my biggest regret.” I have many more too…but those were the ones I remembered off the top of my head!
I write SVM/TB fanfics in my spare time. My favorite color is blue. My favorite shows, other than True Blood include; Spartacus, The Walking Dead, The Vampire Diaries, Family Guy, Game of Thrones, and Sons of Anarchy (I also write fanfics in the SoA fandom too.) Favorite books; “Pride & Prejudice”, “Black Dagger Brotherhood” series, “Night Huntress” series, “The Immortals” series, and “Intensity” by Dean Koontz. I live in Canada, so it shouldn’t be surprising to find out that I love hockey, and my favorite team is the Detroit Red Wings (same as Nymerias). If you would like to know even more about me…here’s the link to my personal blog, The Fanfiction Vixen. Oh, yes…I’m a vixen alright! LOL

Love this site.Great job to all involved.Such hot actors.
Thanks for the intro to the other ladies on your E&SL staff. I really feel like I know each one of you personally just from our shared love of all things E&S!!!
Just wanted to stop by and say Thank you for all that you gals do to make this such an informative and wonderful site!!
Yay! I knew I loved this sight for a great reason….well lots of them but knowing some of you are Red Wings fans, that seals it! I’m a displaced Detroiter, rabid Wings fan and retired hockey mom who spent many happy weekends in Canadian rinks (I even remember the words to O Canada). Keep up the good work!
I live in Illinois and our ECHL hockey team’s parent club is the Blues so some think I should either bleed ‘blue’ or be a Hawks fan! I have to be for my Red Wings so I joke with a friend saying “No,I bleed red”!
and I am as rabid about hockey as I am with Eric! The only Blackhawk player I like is Marion Hossa and I wish he would have stayed with the Wings!
I know the words to the Canadian Anthem as well as I know my own, you are not a hockey fan if you don’t know it!
Thank you so much, I love this site. You all do a fantastic job. It’s the first place I check everyday! And seeing how I live north of Detroit, we all love the Detroit Red Wings !
I love all of the people here.
Wish i was one of them.
When it comes to Eric Northman I love him since the first
time I laid eyes on him~and I know the connection between
him and Sookie,I saw it the very first time in Fangtasia.
Eric and Sookie knew each other,but where and when
Charlaine Harris never told of their connection.
The person who has done that is Morgaine Swann in her
story “LATE!!!” it is a fanfiction that must be read by
any Eric & Sookie Lover!!!!
It is a fanfiction that I’ve just read for the 25th time!!!
Thanks Marlene for the poem and the suggestion!
Ahh Late, Morgaine has weaved a complex tale (i have reread it several times). If she is reading this, i hope she is feeling better.
I love reading fanfiction because it give you just a different view of the same characters
You all are amazing! Thanks for all you do!
I so love and appreciate all hard work you guys do!! I love this site and it’s the very first thing I look at every morning…
I love your site…you do a great job and always makes my day when you do an update. I love “icon of the month” I love them so much that I have stole some of them to use as my Facebook profile pictures. Like you Erika my husband also thinks I’m a nut because of Eric. My friends at work think the same way. I have Eric as my wallpaper on my I-phone and computer and of course I own a Eric t-shirt and Fangtasia one. My phone already recognize Eric’s and Sookie’s names plus Fangtasia. It’s funny because if I write Bill’s name it doesn’t self corrects or finishes his name for me ha! Even my phone has good taste. Not only recognizes Eric’s name it recognizes Northman too! I fell in love with Eric the first time he show up on the screen. When bill went with Sookie to Fangtasia. I was a trubie first… When I found out that the series was base in books and after seen Eric I had to buy one. As crazy as it sounds I love Eric Northman both of them True Blood Eric and book Eric. And like any viking lover I hate William Compton with passion. Keep the good work.
My iPhone does the same thing! Lol And when I type in Beehl it picks that up, but not Bill! Lmao! Go figure…it must be a sign…
Thanks for your kind words about the site!
Thanks for all your hard work keeping us well informed! This is a great site!
LOVE THIS SITE VERY MUCH…HERE I COULD FIND EVERYTHING I WANTED ABOUT TRUE BLOOD AND ALEX (ERIC). AND BECAUSE I’M FROM ROMANIA (THAT’S VERY VERY FAR AWAY
) HERE I FIRST SAW WHAT HAPPEN ON TRUE BLOOD BEFORE THE SHOW STARTED IN MY COUNTRY. AND OF COURSE I HATE BILL TOO…LOL 
KEEP DOING THE GREAT JOB … !!!!
you ladies rock! I love this site and its on my top go-to sites for all things Eric and Sookie. Keep up the great work *hugs*
Thank you guys- you are all doing a fantastic job. You just can’t imagine how much influence you have on everyone who follows this site- I can only speak for myself but this site has definitely added more spunk to my daily life as tuning into this site is a “daily MUST”. I even come here first before checking my emails- I’m just hooked. More power to you all ladies- as I love our litte (actually big now) community. This site generally gets more than half a million hits between 2-4 seconds- how impressive is that. So again to you all ladies- WE LOVE YOU LOTS!!!!!!
I’m from Spain, I discovered this site about 3 months ago and I love it. The first time I fell in love with Eric(and Alexander Skarsgard) was at the first Sookie’s dream about him at Season 2. I like specially the scene were Eric said:“If I meet the true death, without even having kissed you, Sookie Stackhouse. It would be my biggest regret” and then kissed her but I like every single scene with Eric in it. My husband doesn’t know about my love for Eric but he’s having a clue because he is the screensaver in my notebook. I discovered CH’s books after True Blood and like more her Eric/Sookie story.
Thank you very much for the site, -Its wonderfull.
Can I just say “ditto”!
I’ve been on vacation for five days and guess what I’ve been doing for the past 45 minutes?! Love all you do ladies! Thanks for giving us a place to share and not feel like a bunch of crazies, at least most of the time! lol
Have to say, You guys do an amazing job with this site!! I look forward to it daily.. Your posts are the first thing I look for in my inbox
Like everyone else here, I’m obsessed with the Viking Vamp.. Sexy beast that he is! My husband knows it too, lol… As for favorite Eric quote, Too many to pick just one! Season 4 came to mind now so it’s “Tell Sookie, I was born the night she found me.. And because of her, I went to my true death knowing what it means to love.. Tell her thank you”. I know many people didn’t like season 4 but I just melted when he said that.. Love any and all sides to Eric 
It’s so great to find a place where others are just as nuts about him as me..
Thank you all SO much for your hard work.. It’s much appreciated!!
Thank you all for the wonderful comments! We are so happy that you enjoy the time you spend here.
[...] so you have a better idea of who we are and where our interests lie. Check out our Intro post here! Nice to meet [...]
Love your site… I’ve been sick with the flu…. so catching up. This is always my first ‘port o call’ for Eric stuff! Keep up the good work! ~T
I love everything you’ all have done with the site! It’s great, and it’s the first thing I check in on everyday, (because I know, that my day will be so much better when I’ve seen the news).
I’m coming from Denmark – a tiny country – so no one here is known with True Blood. Only two girls from my class have seen it, and they’re both team Bill/Sookie. *makes a face in disgust*
So it’s a relief to come here, whom all is team Eric/Sookie!
~ Thank you for a great site, I appreciate everything you all have done! Keep up the wonderful work – can’t get enough of it!
. Once again, a BIG thank you!! ♥♥
