I just think the flood is slowing, which is only good news for already-published and popular vamp writers.Staciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969399927758009095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13002022.post-1152282048871718712006-07-07T07:20:00.000-07:002006-07-07T07:20:00.000-07:00Argh, don't say that!

So don't jinx me now; I wanna hit two million. ;-)MaryJanice Davidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03329909459284982160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13002022.post-1152198704301152452006-07-06T08:11:00.000-07:002006-07-06T08:11:00.000-07:00I don't think it's a stake for paranormals, it's a...I don't think it's a stake for paranormals, it's a belated stake for vampires. (Notice all the books discussed were vamps.) Most publishers stopped buying them (at least in great numbers) almost a year ago because there was such a glut.<BR/><BR/>Sure the big series will continue. But if you're just starting out and want to write vampires, your options are much more limited than they were two years ago. It's not impossible, just the market isn't as open as it was.Staciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969399927758009095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13002022.post-1152125149091433612006-07-05T11:45:00.000-07:002006-07-05T11:45:00.000-07:00Come on,BSC,don't jinx my paranormal books:)!

Actually,there is some backlash,particularly against Laurell K Hamilton for the increasing amount of sex in her stories,mostly the Anita Blake series. While I agree that's gone way overboard,I can't help but read every new book she has.<BR/><BR/> Hell,it was easier to give up Anne Rice novels(did get an ARC of her Christ The Lord novel,which my sis and I laughed our butts off at)but then again,it's a harmless pleasure at best. Oh,and thanks for adding me to your blogroll,BSC-much appreciated:Dlady thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16287907577241697874noreply@blogger.com
