:lol:

a least she has the necessary vocabulary to come out with that. can you imagine say Dan Brown or (URGGH!) Stephanie Meyer being that articulate?

I think Dan Brown has probably written more books than he's read.

As for Stephenie (and yes, that is how she spells it) Meyer, well, rationalwiki's takedown is hilarious.

I think you could argue that Interview With The Vampire kicked off the "urban fantasy" genre as a whole. I definitely don't think we'd have had anything like Buffy without Anne Rice. RIP.

The Interview with a Vampire movie made impact on me when watched it. Hadn't had the chance to read her books, but i gave the feeling that she must be a good writer. Rip :bat:
