Halls of the Dark Muse

For me, this is a sad sad time for true vampire affianado and lovers of the Vampire. I have been fascinated with the vampire for just about as long as I can recall, and now I am in despair that it seems a whole new generation of Vampire fans are going to move in on our turf, but in my book they are just a lot of wannabes and do not have the true essence of the vampire soul.

Of what tragedy in the world of the undead do I speak.

The dreaded and horrible and Stephanie Meyer. I wish she would just go crawl back into whatever cave she crawled out of.

I am sick to death of her (no pun intended) and I am sick of everything vampire related now being about her.

My gripe with her, is the fact that I think her books are just plain bad writing. They are cheap, cheesy, corny.

And the thing that really gets to me is that she seems to have replaced Anne Rice as the new vampire icon.

Now even if you do not care about vampires at all, I think any one would agree that Meyer does not hold a candle to her. And that Anne Rice was truly a talented and skilled writer.

I grew up on her books and she truly revolutionized the vampire.

But Meyer just spews forth her crap and everyone eats it because teenagers these days have no true taste anymore.

People who read and actually enjoy Meyer, are not true blue vampire affianaods. They are just another fad.

But I am tired of hearing people gush over her.
