I am so very going to link this. And then gush about its overall awesomeness.

Then I'm going to write a book with angels, demons, vampires, hot sex, and ambiguous morals.

You know, I don't think you can go wrong with angels, demons, hot sex, and ambiguous morals. Vampires, of course, are always dicey. :)

Personally, I think you can go very, very wrong with angels, demons, hot sex, and ambiguous morals (hereafter referred to as ADHSAM). In fact, I think you should. Who wants ADHSAM that's right? It's like chocolate that's good for you - it misses the point.

If I'm going to do ADHSAM (or ADVHSAM), I'm going to make it a cheesy, popcorn affair. Anything less, and I'm disrespecting the genre.

But would any of the ADVHSAM's be interested in cheesy popcorn, or would it, too, become perverted by exposure and inclusion?

I'm just thinking of unpopped kernels and orange residue in uncomfortable, hard-to-explain places.

It's an interesting thought, but I just don't think I can make Orville Redenbacher terribly sexy.

Orville Redenbacher / Colonel Sanders slash - the unexplored frontier.
