bedlamsbardOh, yes, Meyer, set it in my state. Yay for Forks, I suppose, but god, I hate those books an enormous amount. Every time I think of them I want to get back to writing my high school urban/rural fantasy novel, which is also set in smalltown Washington -- on the east side of the mountains, also known as the SIDE WITHOUT RAIN.
There are no vampires in that town, by the way. My main character is the teenage scion of a British magical family who runs a paranormal genetic engineering company in Seattle. His best friend is a boy next door type. Other characters include the six-fingered Seer, the immortal ancient Greek hero who got deaged down to a baby about eighteen years back by his deranged ex-wife and doesn't actually remember this fact, the other scion of a different British magical family, the crazy ghosts (okay, I lied, one of them got killed by a vampire; I'd forgotten), the pair of identical twins named (god help us) Fury and Grace d'Alessandro, and I believe there's a werewolf somewhere.
Oh, yes, and almost all the high school characters are in the band, because did I mention I came up with this in high school? So much more awesome than Twilight. Although. A little bit like Buffy, in some ways.
