Description du produit

"There's no better guide than Allyson when journeying through the surreal world of fan/celebrity interaction. She's smart, insightful and, best of all, supremely snarky." -- David Fury, Co-Executive Producer, Angel, Lost, 24 "Allyson is a damned entertaining writer." -- Tim Minear, Executive Producer, Firefly, Wonderfalls, The Inside "Eye-opening. It's a fast and funny read --and you can't beat the title." -- Nicholas Brendon, Buffy the Vampire Slayer "Allyson's take on fandom and internet community is refreshingly crisp and tart---like a Fresca in book form. And Nick Brendon just told your ass to read it, so get on that."--Sarah D. Bunting, TelevisionWithoutPity.com When I called my mom to tell her that my friend Tim Minear, a television writer, named a character after me in a new pilot premiering on the FOX network, she was beside herself. She squealed with joy. "What does the character do?" she asked. "Well, she gets her face and hands ripped off and is left for dead," I replied. "The character is Victim #4 in an episode about a serial killer." Silence. "I don't think I like your friend Tim very much," she said. Allyson Beatrice lives a not-quite-ordinary life. Her job and almost everyone she knows are the result of spending too much time on the Internet talking about vampires, slayers and lesbian witches. And her encounters are even more unusual than you'd imagine. "Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby? is a hilarious collection of true stories from Allyson's days as one of the Internet's leading cult TV fan gurus...otherwise known as the "vampire people." Her mind-boggling escapades include clandestine campaigns to house famed TV producer/writer/director Joss Whedon's cat, meetings with network executives in dark steakhouses to try to save doomed TV shows and one hastily arranged wedding for two committed Buffy fans. Honest, emotional and side-splittingly snarky, Allyson Beatrice brings a fresh voice to these wild but true stories. Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby? welcomes you to a fun and sometimes bizarre world where stupidity frustrates, wit triumphs and connections are made in most unlikely ways...a world, in fact, not too different from our own.
