I just object to LKH claiming that she started out with "hard boiled detective fiction". No, sorry LKH, but my film noir just shot you in the head and ran down a dark alley to dump the gun and then framed the gumshoe hero.
I also object to LKH getting big and popular (really, I liked it when she was sorta on the fringe, but that was back when she was writing stuff with plot) because of all the clones that have flooded the genre -- and I cannot express how entirely fed up I am with the clones, and first person narrative of said clones. Seriously, I cannot even begin to care about whatever romantic problems said girl with superpowers may or may not have. I want corpses. I want gore. I want madness. GIVE ME BACK MY HORROR GENRE, BITCH! *cries* Goddamned chick lit.
