Definitely, kays, another debate! Question! Thingy...

The Cullen's "Superpowers"
I think it's stupid, the moment a vamp book mentions teleporting vamp who have telekinesis, I close it.

Thoughts?
This is why I call them Meyerpires. They are not real vampires in any way, shape, or form.


Oooh, smart! I disliked the throwing away of the true blue way of biting and fangs, Meyerpires "bite" a.k.a. "tear" vampires (not capitalized!) bite, and their elongated canines add drama and flair to a vampire, really sharp teeth are boring in vampires.


BUT, a meyerpire doesn't have the true ability of turning someone into a vampire. Most vampires use their snake-like fangs to bite into the major blood vessels and transmit a venom like thing. When you tear, you can't target, and, therefore, you're ONE not getting all blood--more tissues and other things surrounding the arteries--and TWO can't direct venom to turn someone into a vampire.

So how do Meyerpires exist??? O.o
In a vampire book I'm writing, there are three types of vampires, two of the types can create Dhampirs of their types, and the other can make true vampires of any random type, the vampire can't control it.
     
In my book, there's only vampires and non-vampires. None of that in between nonsense. I suppose a Dhampir is valid, but I just can't embrace it.
 
     

Proudly Anti-Twilight
If Edward and Bella Cullen were standing on the edge of a cliff, 90% of Americans would freak, 9% would yell JUMP! If you're the 1% who would give them a final push, put this in your signature.
 
Usually Dhampirs are basic Meyerpires, but I'm going to make them suffer, horror style, bwahaha.

Twilight was only interesting to hormone charged teenagers and lonely sex-deprived housewives. There was nothing "interesting", thought provoking, or compelling about any of the books.

As to the Host, I personally have not read it but judging by the poor grammar and punctuation of your post (and I don't mean this to be insulting, I'm just stating an observation and the in-suing inference) but I'm not surprised you didn't understand it.

Again, EXACTLY. The first part, at least. It's fiction--anything goes--but its' very unrealistic to have a vampire that bites that way. In my book (Damn, are we ALL writing vampire books? I'm a procrastinator. Mine's taken years to get half-way xD) the average vampire is born with the instinct ability to sense where major arteries are while those who are turned into vampires have to learn it. If you're aimlessly biting, you're not going to get pure blood. Just tainted blood mixed with other bodily fluids and materials.

@Chaotic: DUH. She ripped off a bunch of other books (I said this yesterday and I only read a portion of those books a while ago and forgot the titles and such. Forgive me. I'm a sucker for excepts xD) with most of the good lines. You know the one where she described Edward in such depth with the sparkling? That was from another book where someone was describing someone sparkling in the MOONLIGHT. That's where the original idea of sparkling came from, anyway--the sparkling in the Moonlight. The sunlight thing was unique, but she really couldn't pull it of. As far as I know, at least, with the line thing. OR she just thinks very much like that author.

In the Forests of the Night
by Amelia somethingoranother ( ^-^' )

@onxy: No, it's not very interesting. It's repetetive, unoriginal, badly written, and highely unbelievable, even for a fiction novel. I WILL admit that there were some extremely interesting bits, but, the more I searched, the more I found that they weren't hers. I dare you to look up the bst parts and you will find them in some other work. Also, that post was kinda hard to understand... could you please try to be a bit more literate in the discussion threads?

Cool idea! ^.^

Oooh! Brainstorm! (I love that word) Vampire types are called Rads, Mods, and Vics. Mods and Vics are more powerful than Rads, therefore have less venom and turning people into true vampires is a 5 out of 10 chance for them, Rads are weaker, so they have a higher amount of venom, their chances are 8 out of 10 for true vampires.
I always leave books off, but I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year...

Amelia Atwater-Rhodes? Haven't read that one, but i did read her Hawksong books, good, but I stopped at Snakecharm. wink

They stole their powers from the X-Men. Seriously, the Cullens' sparkly skin stole th from Emma Frost!

My god, what an atrocious mess! I major in Creative Writing at a performing arts school. Do you know how freaking hard I work to make my stories good?! Writing may not be as "cool" as playing an instrument or acting in theater, but it it still an art form and I take pride in it, dammit. Whenever I trash Twilight people tell me, "I'd like to see you write something better" to which I reply "FINE! GIVE ME TEN GODDAMN MINUTES!" All it is is a flowery pubescent masturbatory aid. Stephanie Meyer is a talentless hack who was made a star by a million brainless and horny teenage girls! Even the Harry Potter series had better writing. And this Bella character isn't interesting enough to be the narrator of her own book. She has nothing interesting or intelligent to say. I can listen to boring and horny teenage girls talk at school, thank you very freaking much. I've been trying to hold it in and I feel slightly better. That series and all who talk about how much they like it make me want to rip out my own uterus.
