Buffy ,'Beneath You'
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."
I ADORE those two movies. I've owned them FOREVER (actually, my 2nd and 3rd DVD purchases, after "Dark City")
Aren't they fab? Love the clockwork jazz band, death by frog head and Price snootily sorting through the brussel sprouts and pitching the ones which won't work for the fabulous Locust Enticing Elixir.
Vulnavia is probably my all-time favorite mad villain assistant, though Tom Waits as Renfield is also pretty awesome.
And the lover, incidentally, apparently dowses for the dead? Or IS dead and dowses (while dead)?
I think the latter, though I still have no idea what the fuck that's supposed to mean. All the words look familiar, but in that order it's just word salad.
Whenever I play World of Warcraft, and I'm on a new server (because some sub-set of friends says "join us here!") I always make a female undead named Vulnavia.
ALWAYS.
And the name is ALWAYS available.
WoW players are uncultured dunderheads.
Oh, wait...
Could that book be purposefully tongue-in-cheek? I mean, it would make a whole lot more sense then.
Which one? The paranormal word salad? I doubt it. It's seriously what's gaining in popularity.
I was thinking about the word salad, though, really, either could apply.
It seriously reads like a parody.
I was just rereading the Nora Roberts Circle Trilogy books this weekend (the ones with the circle of six good guys, including a sorceror, his vampire brother, a witch, a shape-shifter, a queen, and a vampire hunter ["Like Buffy?" "Sort of, but I'm not the only one."] battling the queen of vampires on another planet). There's a funny scene when the shape-shifter is heading out on a recon mission and decides to take out the vampires' SUV with a unicorn horn stab to all four tires.

I'm tired of vampires and zombies.
I'm not tired of WELL-WRITTEN, INTERESTING ONES. Which there is a marked lack of, dammit.
Okay, FINE. Once I get the revisions for this next Steampunk Tales story done, I will start working on my paranormal YA book. Where the vampires are NOT GOOD GUYS.

Wait till next year.
