What the fuck is a novellite?

The word is either NOVELETTE or NOVELLA, bitch!

:brain explodes:

I think it's supposed to be like novel-lite. Like Pepsi One or Coke Zero or something. Half the calories (pages) and absolutely no taste (plot).

*snort* Best definition ever!

[witchgoddess316.livejournal.com]

LOL

I needed that after her entry.

Please tell me your icon is a real knife holder. My bf and I would just LOVE one of those in our kitchen!

[tooimpurenangel.livejournal.com]

I want one, too. Coolest thing ever.

[witchgoddess316.livejournal.com]

It's definitely a real knife holder that I saw on Gizmodo. I haven't had much luck finding a reputable place to purchase it from.

Firebox has it:

Damn, I'll have to keep an eye out for that one!

Google wanted to know if I was looking for "novel lite," so I think hallow is onto something.

But here's what I want to know: who is this Jon person, the perfect husband? How can he freaking stand to go on long walks and talk about her lameass plots and imaginary boyfriends? That just doesn't seem normal. I would never subject anybody in my life to that. Does he have a job? Is she farming some her writing out to him?

[laney-1974.livejournal.com]

I remember reading on one of her blogs that he's working on turning Guilty Pleasures into a movie. From what she's written, I don't think he has a full time job. Unless, of course, you call being married to her is a full time job.

Nope, I think I'm going to leave that one alone.

But can you imagine using the word in a conversation like that? I have a feeling she was going for the word novelette...

If Richard is supposed to be LKH's ex, Jon is Nathan/Micah. Makes me wonder if he also bakes and wears pearls in addition to kissing her ass and feet.

Reading her blog is like torture!! She has NO concept of what a comma does or where to put one. Plus, most of what she said made absolutely no sense. Oh, and I just love how she can't let it go that her ex was an evil, evil man. This woman needs MAJOR therapy. Yes, he wasn't the right person for her. Sure, he probably put her through hell. But, it's been over for a long time. It's time to forgive and forget. Hell, I'll settle for her just forgetting.

I couldn't actually read it. I got maaaaaaaaaybe four sentences into it and had to turn away.

I mean, she talks about changing one of her 'plots' (please excuse the misleading term) from camping to a B&B because "Ronnie will like it better."

...

um...Ronnie is imaginary. Ronnie will like whatever you TELL her to like...

at least it works that way with people who aren't crazy.

Now, I thought this blog entry was as ridiculous as anyone else. But to be fair, what we're always bitching about is how she's taking all of her characters and making them act wildly out of character. So I think we should be glad she's actually considering doing something to make her characters behave consistently... even if she does insist on talking about it in a creepy way. :)

[sweetpirate.livejournal.com]

This is true--but I think I meant more that it shouldn't MATTER if Ronnie likes it or not--she's imaginary. And really, Ronnie bitching would at least add (if only half a page) non-sex plot (once again, I use this term loosely).

[briary-flower.livejournal.com]

God, I love making fun of her. I'm so glad I found you guys.

Reading her blog is like torture!! My new catch phrase. I will use it on every occasion.

[wickedmommy.livejournal.com]

Oh my god....I wonder if she actually sits down and has a conversation with Richard over coffee...You think they meet at the local Starbucks?

I can just see her sitting in the corner..nodding at the wall taking notes as "Richard" outlines the book that HE wants. I have always heard that when you start hearing voices and seeing people that aren't there...you need to go on meds.

[bleedtoblue.livejournal.com]

If LKH's characters really talked to her they'd be making death threats.

[http://users.livejournal.com/belladonna_/]

But this morning, well the two ideas rubbed against each other, and viola it's a book. A small book, a novellite, but a book.

LKH, I donna think those words mean what you think they mean.

[pandorasblog]

And the ideas can't just pop into her head or occur to her... they have to '[rub] against each other'. Because that's what the books are now all about. Bleh.

[edda.livejournal.com]

I want to marry your icon and have 10,000 of its babies.

[dwg.livejournal.com]

If I remember, she blogged about it back when she was writing Micah because she felt that it was too long to be a novella, but to short to be a novel - so it was a novel-lite.

Never mind the fact that Micah turned out to be about 40 pages longer than Guilty Pleasures, even with the awful layout.

So, Micah was dubbed the novel-lite and it's unfortunately stuck.

*deaddesk* ...no, I'm going to keep the typo. It works for me.
