However, ther...I do agree that the vampire IS DEAD. However, there is still infinite ground and mythology to cover with the werewolf that still has not been explored. This is evident in the number of vampire books that have been published VS books featuring only werewolves without another mythical creature stealing their thunder. It is a known fact that the big guns (especially Hollywood) think that werewolves are a harder sell than vampires and this is why werewolves are not as popular and are usually confined to the role of the sidekick mythical creature. I think of them as the minority in the supernatural world. In innovative hands a very original werewolf series can be written. But I guess I prefer for for the masses to believe the werewolf tale is dead. It will make the challenge of restoring its life much more fulfilling. ;0)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746250676507314996.post-58840774340157714812010-03-25T09:25:25.829-04:002010-03-25T09:25:25.829-04:00Bless you, Jaime, for hammering away at the need t...Bless you, Jaime, for hammering away at the need to read! You cannot imagine how many writers come to me and actually say they don't read. And it shows :) <br />So I'm always saying all of this, but it does a ton of good to point to your success and say, "See! That's what I've been tellin' ya!" <br />Thank You!Susan Mary Malonehttp://maloneeditorial.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746250676507314996.post-7797158058628121492010-03-20T01:00:24.784-04:002010-03-20T01:00:24.784-04:00LOL So, so true...every word. :0) Great blog!

Thanks for sharing it. :) I especially like the point about bad books -- it's so true and so helpful. Even reading books that are "good" but ya just don't like... It helps you figure out what sort of writer you really are. Happy writing!<br /><br />-S.Susanhttp://susandennard.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746250676507314996.post-15279988426210984682010-03-17T15:01:59.937-04:002010-03-17T15:01:59.937-04:00I love this post!!

Great advice that we've probably all heard before but with a new twist :o) I am one of those who (nearly) cries herself to sleep for her inadequacy after reading a great book. But, for every one of those days I have two great, optimistic days when I get thought-provoking comments on my writing, or just read uplifting blog posts from writers who are going through the same things. <br />Thanks Jaime! You rock! <br />~ErinErin_Schultzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14012242321025470161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746250676507314996.post-82052913467773703102010-03-17T14:23:27.196-04:002010-03-17T14:23:27.196-04:00In spite of feeling my blog reading is mushrooming...In spite of feeling my blog reading is mushrooming, I decided to follow.
