Die, Vampire, Die!
Pictured here is a science fiction author's newest enemy. With dragons finally dropping to second place but still holding strong, vampires — and especially erotic female vampires — have taken over the science fiction genre.
But how can that be? I ask myself. Vampires have nothing whatsoever to do with science so how could they possibly have anything to do with science fiction? They don't. Madison Avenue's stupid and unbridled ad copy writers have convinced science fiction fans — through television, movies and the Internet — that this is the new sci-fi. What they're selling is schlocky writing and smut in place of good science fiction. There's only one thing to say to that.
Die, Vampire, Die! Once and for all. Or else go back to the Horror genre where you really belong.
