Soooo, Charlaine Harris announced to USA Today<\/i> that she’s soon leaving the whole Sookie Stackhouse\/vampire\/HBO True Blood thingy behind, and… guess what?<\/p>\n
Aww, you guessed. Writing a YA novel – a graphic, in collaboration with Christopher Golden. <\/p>\n
While I don’t argue with any writer’s urge to write the next thing — heck, I hate anyone trying to limit me<\/i> to the last genre I dabbled in — I do have a question: is it just me<\/i>, or lately does it seem like YA is everyone’s next career move? And what sort of baffles me\/chaps my hide is the description of said YA novel:<\/p>\n
Cemetery Girl<\/b> will combine fantasy and paranormal mystery to tell the story of a teenaged girl with amnesia who has grown up living alone in amid the gravestones.<\/i><\/p>\n
Again, is it just me, or did Our Neil already write a novel with basically the same premise called The Graveyard Book<\/i>…?<\/p>\n
Publishers are said to be counting on Stackhouse’s huge, massive, NYT-Bestselling-for-weeks-on-end following to follow her to YA graphic novels.<\/p>\n
Hm. <\/p>\n
