Reviews:
"Smart and articulate."
-- Cliff Burns, Black Dog Press
"Oh shit, I'm going to go read that now. I love Twilight parodies! And thank you for decimating (I tried to write dedicated but my auto spell changed it that) [the Bad Romance anthology] to me. I am honored and it's warming the cocks on my heart. Thank you!"
-- Michael K, DListed.com
"Great characters and a fascinating look at today's culture."
-- Kipp Poe, Review on Jess's 'The Intern' (YA Sins07, Lust)
Excerpt (Story #2, Literary Heroin):
Ms. Isobel Swann, the English teacher, looked at her star pupil.
"So, what did you think of Twue Wuv?" Isobel asked with a sweet smile.
"I learned that it's okay to feel the way I do: that my life has no meaning unless I have a boyfriend," gushed Stephenie, Renesmee's BFF.
Stephenie was overweight but enjoyed dressing provocatively. She thought the guys couldn't handle her. Most of them were scared off by her seductive ways and non-stop approaches towards anyone in class who owned a pair of testicles.
"A real man is like the perfect vampire-boy and all the perfect guys in Twue Wuv."
