Which is why I can fall back on the phrase "at the very least etc." so that I don't sound too much like a hateful prick.

Yes, sometimes it annoys me, because I am a female who wants to write books, that female readers and writers have this horrible reputation that so often is justified. (I have gotten the awkward compliment that my writing is masculine -- meaning that I have a strong voice and a confident style.

Dear child, if I were in your position of being a good female writer and being told to have a masculine write, I would punch them in the face for being so bigoted. Granted, there is a degree of justification for a relationship between some female writers and absolutely shit literature, given what we've talked about in this thread, but there are so many good writers who are shadowed by other loud, flamboyantly horrible authors. It'll be that way until the end of time.

That is not strictly a feminine thing.
This is not me trying to start a battle of the sexes in this thread that is already such a dead horse, but there are more bad writers than good writers period. It's not a male writer/female writer thing.
NeverQuiteGoth:
So aparently Chris Weitz (the man who made an awesome Golden Compass movie before New Line shit all over his script) is directing "New Moon"
Did not see that one coming.
On another note, I was bored and watched the making-of documentary on the Twilight DVD the other day. The director of that one, Cathrine Hardwicke; my god was I the only one who wanted to strangle that woman after listening to her rave about what an awesome job she did making the Twilight movie? Ugh.
