A thing that always bugs me:
Jul. 22nd, 2011 08:42 pmWhen authors describe someone's voice as "chocolatey".
No matter who does this (and I have counted six authors who have), it never fails to piss me off, because there are so many different kinds of chocolate.
Obviously they usually mean "sexy" or something like it, but god damn it use a good strong adjective for it, not something weaksauce like "like chocolate" you asshole, using food alongside sex bugs the CRAP out of me.
EVERYONE WRITE THE WAY I WANT YOU TO, FOREVER.
Brandon Sanderson and Rick Riordan are excused on the grounds that they already do. Likewise Tanith Lee, who has perfected sensual without stupid.
