So I guess today is the day for quotes that make me growl and clutch my head in my hands. From an article about the Twilight series and the release of the 4th book, a quote from the author:
She didn't even know much about vampires when she started. "My vampires are very light. Since I started writing, I've learned more about how other vampires roll, so to speak, and it's a very sensual thing, the blood-drinking, the sex and violence. Mine is more about attraction."
I think my plans for the weekend (writing, writing, more writing, and some household chores) now need to include re-reading Dracula and re-watching Near Dark*. You know, two stories that are about predatory and bloodthirsty vampires, not spaaaaaarkly twoo wuv "very light" vampires.
*Mind you, I will stop the DVD before it gets to the end of the movie, because the ending of Near Dark makes me very cranky.
