Written Right: a writer's guide to more than writing

My neighbor brought by a big box of books for me to read. We trade all the time, since we're both voracious readers. I've been turned onto some fantastic new authors by reading some of Ginny's castoffs and I'm sure she would say the same about some of the books I've given her.

I've heard of the author Laurel K. Hamilton somewhere along the line. Ginny unloaded her entire collection, because she said she was finally over her "vampire stage". I'm sure I spelled vampire wrong. Apparently there's more than one way and I'll happily admit I only know the one.

So, I flipped through one, then another, and another. This is pretty much porn, yes? I'm shocked. I mean, not literally as in I can't handle a steamy book scene. It's more along the lines that I had always associated this author with pre-teen girls. I've seen more than my fair share of the younger set toting around one of these books on the subway or in the park.

Um, yikes.
