From what I'm reading here about Twilight, it sounds like Stephanie Meyer is to vampire literature as Sandra Lee is to cooking?
And there's another reason I love Todd! Exactly!
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

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."

Shit's all sorts of different now.
He's probably calling Dan Radcliffe and saying, "I think my crazies have your crazies beat, mate."
"Got one named Aimee who is convinced she's an Empress? No? Shut it, git."

Aims, however, um, avid a fan you may be, lusting after his sweet young body is one thing. Presenting yourself, bleeding, as an appetizer is another.

This is true.
It's nice to know where my crazy ranks. So often, I haven't the slightest.

Way the fuck over on the really-not-that-crazy end of the spectrum, love. Promise.

There's a line between the talking crazy over the top fan stuff and actually DOING crazy over the top fan stuff. Not a fine line. And you, Empress, haven't crossed it (that I know of).

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
wrod. This. Or at least that's what I tell myself when I fantasize sending Keith Olbermann Dick Cheney's ear in a jar. Perhaps I've said too much.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
There's a line between the talking crazy over the top fan stuff and actually DOING crazy over the top fan stuff.
But it seems to be much easier to come up with a way to do crazed fan stuff for a vampire character (i.e., scratch your neck so it bleeds, whatev) than for a fictional wizard ("Harry! I have...a...broom at home! JUST LIKE YOU!!!!").
Vampires are too easy to fangirl.
Also, Jilli -- based on your commentary, I read the Twilight Kisses books (there are 5, right?). They're cute, and I like Raven a lot.
