Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Does this even beg the obvious question?

Here's a thought...write something ELSE. Or think of humanity, madam, and you know, *don't* (/fake Special Comment. Because I am outraged and my cat is innocent.)

I really have had ideas happen that way. But I still have had to work like hell on them. That is why she insults writers so. Writing like a fanfiction.net escapee is just the cherry on the sundae.

It's a facet (forgive the pun) of the transformation-- their skin has a diamond-like quality and that's one of the primary reasons they can't go out in full sunlight because they're like the human equivalent of bedazzlers.

Or something to that effect.

I mean, seriously. I've nothing against re-interpretations of tropes, but to say you don't like the very thing you're writing about?
