Once Bitten

If you have not heard of Twightlight, you likely have been on an intergalactic cruise in your office. If you have not read it, it is likely because you are not a 14-year-old girl, for that is the target audience.

Ah, vampiric puppy love. How quaint, how beautiful, to stoke the imaginations, passions, and desires of its young female readers.

That’s not why I’m here. Now, I’m not a prude, or try not to be anyway, and I certainly don’t have any problems with the above, but I suspect that, given that the story is aimed at young teens, what this pale thing seeks to stimulate might be just a skosh, erm, “beyond the pale”… so to speak.
