she has some weird issue with sex

Well, I think we all know that's true.

The comparison to an overwrought ficcer is ever more appropriate.

Customer reviews for poor old LKH's latest effort are pretty damn amusing. "It's all Mary Sue and porn, and the story languishes."

That blog clip is just so pitifully self-indulgent. I think she and Anne Rice need to have tea and whinge about how the readers just don't understand their suffering and the Greatness of their Art.

Oh, dear, oh, dear... From the Amazon reviews: Admittedly, Hamilton DOES try to give Micah new dimensions as a character, by giving him a traumatic background. Unfortunately, this trauma is that his girlfriend dumped him because Micah's Magnificent Member was, uh, too big for her to handle. It will move readers to tears... of laughter. And you can only imagine how the Magnificent Member's, uh, size has an impact on the rather icky sex scene that follows. Although since they have been together for a year, it's not clear why the size is suddenly such a problem.

And it is precisely the amusing trainwreck you would predict from those reviews. I made an off-hand comment to one of my co-workers about reading vampire novels; the next day she loaned me Micah. I read it on the bus ride home, and couldn't stop rolling my eyes and snickering.

I can't quite bring myself to buy it, and I haven't seen it in the library--nor have I really looked all that hard.

But my editor-in-chief's wife travels a lot, and buys LKH novels (among others) for the plane. Every few months the EiC brings a bag of them and leaves them in the lunch room. I'll probably grab it then. From the sounds of things, I'd better get my eye-rolling exercises underway so I don't sprain anything when the time comes.

Now I find myself dreading the possibility that Anne might form a similar attachment to Jesus and Judas while writing the former's "autobiography", and decide to do away with all that sad-making death in the story to improve it.

Dreading? Personally, I look forward to the trainwreck of her new musical, Jesus Christ Mary Sue.

Does anyone want my copy of Obsidian Butterfly? Paperback? I tried to re-read it, and even that one is unreadable to me. There's too much good fic out there to waste time on that stuff.
