Quote - I got into using Poser originally in 1998 because I want to make illustrations for my vampire novel that had primarily male characters.

That is exactly the reason I started using Poser in 2004/2005-ish. Same subject matter even. lol. 

I never did illustrate that novel. I went to computer animation school instead. The novel is still being written though, and at some point I hope to turn it into an animated series.
