You're just pissed because she is putting Christ in the public discourse, no matter how good or bad the vehicle

I finally finished The Witching Hour. I had forgotten how pornographic it is in places!

The interview I saw she said she would not be writing anymore "vampire type" books and she was going to focus on Christ. I guess she has been "born again" and "is leaving that dark writing behind" her. Sad.

That would be like Stephen King deciding he wants to write for the soap operas.

It is a major loss.

i'm not a huge Anne Rice fan, but a friend told me this the other day, and I was really surprised. Seems that she's gone all Catholic or something....
Somewhere, millions of goths are weeping dark tears....

Yes, Sleeping Beauty. But it has been a while. The vampires are so asexual in the traditional sense that I had forgotten how pornographic she was!
