Is That a Stake in Your Pocket?
I know not to judge a book by it’s cover.
Ironically, I’ll still judge people by the cover of the books that they’re reading.
I know you do too!
The unfortunate truth is that I’ve gotten suckered into enjoying the paranormal crap flooding the market, as well. Damn you peer pressure! (The same thing happened with capris.)
I used to hate romance novels. I wasn’t alone. Everyone I KNEW refused to even be seen in the romance section of the book store. Things have changed, though…
Apparently the secret is a werewolf or vampire themed story. Slap a few horny werewolves on the cover and everyone wants to read about the hairy couple playing fetch with the alpha male’s balls.
But I can still rip off the covers if I want to!
AWESOME
@ Jacki: haha. I love the enthusiasm. Did those covers get you excited?
Hahahahahaha! I love how even his tail is blowing in the wind.
@ surfie: !!! That’s exactly what I was going for! I even wanted to write a little quip about long faibio flowing locks vs. a fluffy tail blowing in the breeze. but save that for later. hehe. I need more time to draw it in detail.
@ JD: How many books like this have you had to edit? and the werewolf? you can have him! he sheds all over the damn place and humps my leg every morning.
HAHAHAHA!
And also: so true.
Now tell me: Was there a model for that werewolf? If so, I need to meet him, STAT.
These are awesome! No one seems to realize that all of these ‘new’ stories are really just a regular, old, romance novel dressed up a little.
I used to own a bookstore and the genre that paid the rent and all the other bills was the romance novels. I was always horrified by that since I couldn’t stand reading them. I’d heard one little, old, blue haired lady say “if they aren’t ‘doing it’ by page four there isn’t any point in reading further”. The characters usually hit the sheets, or field, barn loft, or whatever by page three.
@Jen: It must have been great owning a book store. I live down the street from borders and could spend all day in that place…or the library. Plus then i could go check out the romance novels after hours and not have to worry about anyone seeing me. haha..little old ladies are perverts. that is great!
@Marvin: I’m always sad to hear about marriages going downhill. Once the weight gets out of control and your wife stops shaving her legs and the husband walks in on you showering to use the bathroom instead of to give you a kiss….then you know its over.
I once had a friend whose marriage was sadly lackluster. I could tell by her piles of “bodice-ripper” romance novels all over the house. But she was also wider than she was tall. I wouldn’t have been able to get excited about that. Apparently neither could her husband.
