I want to start a debate.
Who thinks that vampire fiction has had its day??
Had some interesting conversations today, some hard core traditionalists who hate all the new modern vampire literature, and others who like it.
Do you think that the current literary field is too saturated with vampire fiction or do you think there is still room for more?
I personally think there is room for more, it’s popular now yes, and a bit of a fad, but it’s been around for a long time.
You have had so many generations of vampires, from ‘Varney the Vampire‘ and Dracula, to Ann Rice‘s and now more modern literature like the twilight series and True Blood.
I found it interesting, and was slightly irritated that someone thinks a genre that has been so popular for so long has had its day. I don’t see how you can reason that when it’s still so popular and marketable.
What do you think?
