My Twilight Rant.

Total misuse of the blog, I know. But, hey, I'm talking about a book! :D
(And my last two were boring, as well as me being tired of the fangirls. :C )


First Off, Twilight Does Not Compare to Harry Potter!

No, never, no. Twilight and Harry Potter can't even be compared, really; they have no smiliar archetypes in them whatsoever. Nothing really can surpass or even come close to the craze that Harry Potter has become, I mean, is there such a thing as "Vampire Rock"? I've only heard Wizard Rock. I am not saying that one is better than the other (though my opinion is pretty obvious), but people should stop saying that Twilight is the new Harry Potter, because it's not; Twilight is the new Twilight and Harry Potter is the new Harry Potter, that's it.

Twilight is Great for Psychology and What Not To Do Puns!

Just about everyone in Twilight has a mental problem, seriously.
Bella is a narciccist, Edward's a stalker, Jacob (turns into) a pedophile and Reneeseme is a demon baby that tried to kill her mother before she was born. If trying to suck the life out of your mother before you were born isn't a sign of insanity, I don't know what is.
Despite that fact, most are Mary-Sues and Gary-Stus. For those who don't know what these are, (they seem to be writer's terms) they basically mean that said character has no personality whatsoever, or is completely and totally perfect and without any flaws.
Edward Cullen is a prime example. Edface is an icecube, filled with nothing but bland water, with shiny wrapping paper over it and a bow of handsome tied on top. That's it.
And, in Breaking Dawn, Mary-Sue and Gary-Stu made a Mary-Stu.

Stephen King vs. Stephenie Meyer

"Stephen King is just jealous of Stephenie! He hasn't sold 12 million copies of books! He just wants to bring his books into the limelight! He can't say that about her!!!!!1111!!"

Yeah, Stephen King said that SMeyer "can't write worth a darn," and people are having a total and complete SPAZZ about it.

Firstly, Stephen King has sold 350 million copies of his books, and that doesn't even tell you how many people have read it, considering the fact that people borrow, lend and use libraries. Stephen King is like a god in the writing world, and SMeyer is a wannabe.

Stephen King can say that about her, because he is Stephen King.

The Writing Hurts my Head.

If one was a writer like I am, you could take Twilight two ways.
A) It could be a shiny beacon of hope to the hopeful novelist; with said person knowing that this horrible work of literary suck was published, they'd get that novel they wrote for NaNoWriMo in stores sooner than you could say shiny vampires.
B) An insult to all writer kind and the start of the long, book recession. Vampire books are everywhere now. Whoopee.

Most take the latter rather than the former.
The writing is so horrible in this, I actually had a friend of mine and I go through two of the Twilight books and highlight every 'perfect,' 'brilliant,' 'angel,' and 'amazing' we could find. The number was crazy. The writing is forced and un-effortless. When you're an author, you want your writing to end up painting a picture such of Monet, not your five year old cousin.

Kay, I'm done now.
I am now ready for people to throw rocks at me. (:
