Take it not an Anne Rice fan?
He's not a Laurell Hamilton fan either, I take it. :) Kind of a shame though since she originally wrote one or two of the Ravenloft novels. :) |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Oh, I didn't know that, either. Did Death of a Darklord involve a blatant Hamilton insert (petite woman with dark hair and pale skin) engaging in orgies with well-endowed, male supernatural creatures by the score? |

Honestly. I don't remember. :) I have that book but I've read it so long ago that it even surprised me when I was looking over my books when I picked up her Anita books that I went, "Holy Beep! She wrote for TSR! Why didn't I remember this!?" |

I've only read a couple of the Anne Rice novels, but she was who I had in mind when I wrote that.
As for Laurell Hamilton, I've never read her stuff. |

Gracias. I'll have to mention this to the one FR fan I know who once read Hamilton before getting....tired of the author's plots. |

Yeah a lot of people seemed to feel that way about her plots. Ah well I still enjoy her books and her new one for her fey series comes out this month, finally! Or so Amazon claims, so I won't get my hopes up. :) |
