It is possible that I am, in fact, insane.

But having read (some of) Stephenie Meyer's books and thought to myself "I could totally do better than this", I've decided to try.

This decision has manifested as an attempt to rewrite Twilight. If it is successful I may move on to the other three at a later date.

Unfortunately, Project: Rewrite is going to involve de-Sue-ifying Bella Swan, and some drastic changes to plot and character interrelationships.

I can tell you one thing now, however: Project: Rewrite will contain absolutely NO SPARKLING VAMPIRES at any point. Vampires, yes. Sparkling, ABSOLUTELY NOT.

When I have a first chapter, I'll post it here for concrit/reading.

(On a completely unrelated note:

Last night I had a very surreal dream that involved Anton van Leeuwenhoek, Stephen Fry and Adam Monroe from Heroes discussing molecular cell biology. I have no idea what that means, but it does lend support to the "I'm insane" theory.)

Um. Oops?

I couldn't stop myself... I tried, I told myself that I should finish seasons 1, 2 and 3 of Supernatural first... but I couldn't resist.

So I watched the first ep of Season 4 (and I can just hear a certain someone going "Noooo you have to watch the others first!").

Um.

CASTIEL.

I think I am going to have to try very, very hard not to start crushing on a certain angel.

So... ya...

I'm just going to go watch more Supernatural now.

This could be just a coincidence, but I've noticed something about Castiel on Supernatural.

The gentleman in my icon for this post is Castiel.



The gentleman in this picture is John Constantine (that's the real one, from the Hellblazer comics, not the movie one).

He and Castiel show some... similarities.

They're a similar height and build, and they are both seen in outfits that include a white shirt, a loosened black tie and a tan-coloured trenchcoat.

Now, this could be a coincidence. In fact, it probably is a coincidence. But part of me would like to think that someone who works on Supernatural is a Hellblazer fan and made Castiel look like that as a homage or something.

Finally, I think that should anyone decide to do a proper Hellblazer movie, all we'd need to do is make Misha Collins blond and get him to do an English accent and he'd be perfect.

(Anyone who wants to know more about John Constantine, his Wiki page is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Constantine#Real-life_appearances

ETA I have just read on Wikipedia that Castiel is, in fact, "heavily influenced" by the character of John Constantine.

(score one for me!)

Well. I said I was going to try and rewrite Twilight, with the aim of making it... well, into something resembling a decent piece of writing.

Tonight's news is: Chapter One... is now done. I think it's a pretty good opener, but then I would think that, wouldn't I?

Anyway. Chapter One is under the cut, check it out if you want. Concrit is appreciated.

So.... thoughts? Concrit?
