Well, Harry Potter is so *obvious,* plus there's just so much to work with, I mean, it's a universe where *anything* can happen (much like Buffy, actually). Fluff can be good, I agree, though certainly not in a 60-chapter-Spuffy way. I love angst, though, it's like my calling or something.
I guess I can understand how you don't really find slash sexy -- I don't really find het sexy, except when it's happening to me :). I dig that you leave some things ambiguous, and that you're currently writing a "very charged" A/S -- I'm unseemly excited about that last bit!
And Fight Club (the book) isn't *exactly* canon. The main guy ("Sebastian" until he realizes he's Tyler...?) says that he loves Tyler, Tyler loves Marla, and Marla loves him, so it's like a triangle where none of them are happy. He has a crush on himself (Tyler being his alternate personality)... hmmmmm. Plus that whole insinuating bathtub scene in the movie where Tyler comments that "maybe another woman isn't really what we need." Can't you just picture it?
OK, enough of that. It's a great book, you can see that I'm attached.
Now, when will we get to read this A/S scene? Soon, I hope?
