And the language thing...!?!?! I'll never get why so many people still cringe when it comes to "offensive" language. Especially when (no matter how you would prefer it to be classified) it comes in a book you purchase in the horror section; or the science-fiction/fantasy section if the story doesn't have a horror section. Apparently, she has no problem with ghouls and vampires and ghosts and beasties and other horrible things, but don't say fuck, whatever you do.
I suspect that she's one of those people who probably has no problem letting their kids watching action movies where hordes of innocent bystanders get mowed down by machine guns as long as there is no profanity and you never see a breast get touched lovingly.
And lastly...dude, it's Low Red Moon--that's my favorite book of yours. It's the one I tell everyone to read. It's the one I give as a gift. I couldn't say anything bad about that book, except I read it to fast.
