Blog Flog: STRANGE CANDY (so important, it needs all caps, baby!)
Link: http://blog.laurellkhamilton.org/2006/10/strange-candy.html
LKH in bold.
Jon and I dressed up. He did a suit and I even did stiletto heels.
I admit it. I initially misread that as "Jon did a slut" and then told myself to be nice.
Although "did" should not be the verb of choice for "stiletto heels" in LKH's world, because you never know when it's literal.
people just didn't feel compelled to come out and play. Or it maybe that this is the third event we've had in St. Louis this year.
Or maybe people are just getting sick of your theatrics. Even her drama isn't anything new, so if you've already seen her once at an event, why go again? Oh, black wardrobe! Oh, bodyguards! Oh, the doting Jon! Take a picture and instead of going to the event, look at the pic. It's cheaper.
So many familiar faces remarked over and over
Maybe because you're really not attracting that many new readers. I don't care what "the numbers" say. Most supernatural fans I've talked to in my area are ashamed that LKH is in the genre.
I suppose there are writers that would have been upset at a smaller crowd, but they have to be writers that have not done four hundred, or more people night after night.
I don't even have to say it, do I?
We'll do some place warm where we won't get snowed in.
Along with "meat" and "spill", I vote that LKH is henceforth banned from using "do".

Date: 2006-10-07 07:27 pm (UTC)"Call me Anita. Some years ago -- never mind how long precisely -- having too much time on my hands and not enough men in my bed, and nothing particular to restrain my godly sex powers, I thought I would shag around a little and see some tight wet harpoon-penis action. It is a way I have of driving off all my female friends, and regulating my harem. Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically shooting vampire's heads off -- then, I account it high time to get laid as soon as I can."
