But I have to confess that I feel the same way. The whole reason I lost interest in the Outlander series by Diana Gabeldon (sp?) is that after the first two books she sent the heroine away and didn't let her get back together with the hero until she was in her 40s. As an author, I never write a heroine who is older than early 30s. Well, we're an age-ist society--what are you gonna do?

I don't do whimsical. At.all. Whimsy definitely falls under the romantic comedy genre, which like Barbara I don't find funny or romantic. Also, I am not a fan of cartoon covers. Why? It conveys whimsy. I think I've only broken down for Emma Holly, b/c her Black Lace titles were reissued with cartoonish covers and I desperately wanted to get my hands on those books. But then, I had read EH before, so I knew the cartoon cover was misleading. Finally, I'd pass this book up based on the cover alone but now that I know it's about elderly love? Good for them, but yeah, I don't do that either, LOL. This looks….whimsical. I don’t do whimsical. At.all.

I promise it's not slap-sticky and you might like it. C'mon, give me a chance, huh? It's not so bad, I promise. Also there' some pretty hot S&M type sex in it. I want to see if I can win you over. : ) Write me at vangiekitty@aol.com and put Barb in the subject line. Evangeline Barb,

It's like they're trying too hard and it's just not funny. Only tiresome. I know there are people who love that stuff but it pisses me off. Maybe I just haven't found the right type of romantic comedy. I can hardly wait for the book that Evangeline described. It's just what I like best, dark and with lots of butt banging fun.

Like it's supposed to be "funny" so the author writes the heroine as a bumbling retard who falls down a lot or walks into walls or gets into "wacky situations" and hijinks and shit. I hate that, too. If I were to write comedy, I think I'd pass on the slapstick and aim for... umm... well, not hijinks. the word "hijinks" will not be appearing in any of my books. Wackiness will not ensue, I swear it. Is romantic comedy too slap-sticky?

I mean, Bam's funny, and writes funny, so what would she be writing? Is romantic comedy too slap-sticky?
