People ask me why I link to Laurell K Hamilton's blog when I'm obviously allergic to her current incarnation as a "See me pretend to be AnitaMerry GentryBlake as I have non-stop sex with my imaginary boyfriends" alien from a distant planet. When we have blog entries like this one (bolding mine):
I seem to have started a sub-genre. Is it paranormal romance, gumshoe fantasy, urban fantasy romance? No one's really come up with that perfect phrase. If we could just come up with something as cool sounding as cyberpunk, but alas, I don't know what to call it either. My books read more like hard-boiled mysteries, or horror novels in tone of writing, but the romance and the magic is most definitely there, too. What do I write? What I want to read. Isn't that what all writers write?
How can I stop reading that blog, people? How can I? Heh.
I also call BS on her "starting a subgenre". Kooky girlfriend here started the bandwagon rolling, not started a revolution, sheesh.
