Line 8 ⟶ 9:
In fact, things were going so well, Anne Rice decided [http://www.annerice.com/sh_MessagesBeach2.htm (as she let us know on a later web post)] that she had had it with those editors. The result wasn't pretty. Most of the Vampire Chronicles fandom considers her first editor-free book in that series, ''The Tale of the Body Thief'', [[Jump the Shark|the shark-jumping point.]] (And most who don't, think it's the next book, ''Memnoch the Devil''.) This, and the reaction of some people who felt she was to blame for the [[Draco in Leather Pants]] treatment of vampires in popular fiction, landed her a [[Hatedom]].
Don't think she minds too much, though. Currently,{{when}} she has [[Creator Backlash|disowned]] the vampire books and moved on to write about Jesus, but her torch has passed on to [[Anita Blake|Laurell K. Hamilton]] and [[
Her son, [[Christopher Rice]], is quite popular himself, especially with the GLBT crowd. He writes thrillers but hasn't done anything with supernatural themes (yet), and can do without comparisons to his mother.
