I love Tim Burton movies too. 9 looks like its going to be really great.

Sigh...the sparkly vampires : ) I have a love/hate relationship with them. I couldn't put the books down but I hated every minute of it.

I'm really excited for his Alice in Wonderland. *squeeeee*

I can totally relate with the love / hate relationship there. For me, it's Laurell K. Hamilton. Her books are so terrible and yet I keep reading them.

I love all the writers you mentioned. Neil Gaiman is pretty much my hero. I also love Tim Burton movies as well. I can't wait for his version of Alice in Wonderland! Alan Rickman as the caterpillar is especially exciting. ;)

Do you mind if I subscribe to you?
