trollprincess, after the (recent as well as ongoing) plagiarism wank, it seems Cassie Claire's new book has both a teenage vampire slayer named Fray (as did Joss Whedon) and Darkhunters (which is also a series by Sherrilyn Kenyon, it seems, I'm sure crimson_keys can give more information on this).
People, I really think this could be absolute comedy gold, right up there with Anne Rice wank. The possibilities, the potential...comedy gold.
* Honestly, it's be amused** or angry because she's just another in a line of crap writers who have publishing contracts while the people for whom I edit don't all have on themselves but produce much better (and more original) writing. However, I try not to let such things get to me, because I have full faith in them, and the ones who haven't yet been published will be soon.
** Though I probably shouldn't be this amused. It's possible I've taken too many over-the-counter painkillers. Last night I fried my leg*** on the exhaust pipe of my motorcycle and it really hurts, but I'm still at work (though I left the bike at home), and trying to be able to walk and carry things and not scream every time something bumps it.
*** Yeah, I know, I've not had very good leg health for the past few weeks. It keeps me away from my computer, too, because by the time I get home I just want to doctor it, put my feet up, and not sit anymore. Last night I played Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem for a few hours until I had to do some professional writing. Tonight I am skipping the gym, because it's a lower body day if I go, and I tend to bump that area (the back of my calf) anyway when I work out, because I'm a clutz. I still have some professional writing to do today, and some editing, but other than that, I'm taking it easy.
