I would agree...but that would mean i accept them as books.

No, I didn't.  I'd rather hold onto my brain cells.  I need to be sparing with them after reading all the Twilight books.

LOL.

Let's just say it sounds like an illiterate eight year old wrote it.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I have it!!!  My brother and I had a good laugh over this http://www.amazon.com/Creators-Daniel-M-Dewey/dp/0578026880/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1264489074&sr=8-1 one the other night.  He found out about it from an old friend, who just happens to be the author.

It was literally all I could do to keep from gagging (no, really, I did gag once or twice).  Amazon has a preview so you can read the 1st few pages.  If I were actually holding the book in my hands I would have dropped it in the trash after the 1st paragraph.  As it was our mutual disgust turned to morbid curiosity.  You will just have to check it out to see how bad it truly is.

OK, you have me beat by far.  I wanted to stop after reading the dedication, "To my Dog Fred" or whatever the dog's name was.  Then after the first two sentences I want to gouge out my eyes.  I finished a FULL page before I gave up completely.

I read the first two pages. I was just curious to see if it got any better (read: less confusing). Not really. That first paragraph is REALLY bad. And has this person NEVER heard of the phrase 'show, don't tell'? Apparently not....And the comparisons. Ugh.

After that, I kind of want to go find Gamer Girl somewhere online and get further into it, even with the pink unicorns and totally-kissable Chad and all that (yes. I listened to far more of that person reading it on youtube than I should've....don't judge me).

I think I made it to the third, and then my mom (fortunately) called me in for dinner....I think.

If it's worst than Moon People I can't read it... I need the brain cells for a test on Thursday.

Yeah, we laughed that he used the word "darkness" like 8 times in 5 sentences and one of them has the word like 3 times.  It is gagtastic.

Twilight's real?  ???

...I thought it was just a urban legend, meant to scare writers. Like the Writer's Block Imp, or Terry Brooks...

There are leprechauns here, Firefly lasted seven seasons, and Christopher Paolini never learned how to write. ^_^
