I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'blog entry of actor' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'and leading character from dracula' is the wordplay.
'leading' says to take the initial letters.
'character' becomes 'c'.
'from' says to put letters next to each other.
'dracula' becomes 'count'.
The first letter of 'and' is 'a'.
'a'+'c'+'count'='ACCOUNT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for account that I've seen before include "Narrative; statement" , "Bill; description" , "judge" , "Charge" , "Reckoning; narrative" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times and the Irish Times (Crosaire).
