I came across the Web site of someone who bills herself as a "Paranormal Author." Do you suppose she gets her story ideas from the ether? Or perhaps dwells in another dimension when she writes?

One wonders, but her writing advice seemed very good.

Probably just a werewolf that writes for a living.

Right. Except why is Gmail warning me about your messages?

Good question, I've no idea since the posts here are all via the Google Groups website via Fire Fox. If it was from my main email account I could understand a warning because that goes out via iinet, one of the biggest in the Asia-Pacific area and often gets on alerts due to spammers in Asia.

Perhaps her target audience is those who have passed on.  Maybe only the dead can appreciate what she writes. :P

I've read many of those books. The story starts to drag, I nod off, only to jerk awake again, sure I heard the ghosts of the long dead laughing at me. 'D

Barring further evidence, I would guess that "the paranormal" is her subject matter.

I.e. Paranormal author, science fiction author, mystery author, western author, etc.

(Admittedly that last has two different meanings.)

So... Crumbly writes about cookies, then?

Nah, he writes about buildings that are crumbling into piles of ruins.

Now you know why he likes those apocalypse and civilisation collapse stories so much.

Actually, it's got two meanings. One is the obvious play on "crummy writer", but the other is that my stories meander and have lots of detail, so the stories are like muffins, where story threads tumbled in your lap and you pick at different threads, enjoying each one before getting back to the story at hand.

However, that's fairly convoluted. But ... my stories aren't as much about buildings collapsing as people dying. A LOT of people end up dying in my stories, not just the PA tales!
