 Long seen as a committed atheist, four years ago the best-selling author drove a stake through the hearts of her followers when she vowed to abandon her sinister stories and instead write only of the Lord. CNN

Anne says she may write one more vampire book, but with a Christian framework.

Her writing was very good.  I did not realize she was athiest.  I have read many of her books and thought her an excellant writer.

Anne's older now.  She's thinking about her future beyond the grave.

What does that have to do with the fact her books are crappy now.  Are you saying you can't believe in God and still write good books?

You can't write trash and go to heaven.

If  she is truly a saved person,  she wouldn't want to write books like the ones in her past.  She may not be able to write those type books now, even if she tried.  Once the Holy Spirit enters, many things change.

I see, so now she only wants to right books that aren't worth reading.  Hmmm, I thought the whole point of writing was to be read.

If salvation came wrapped in a package, issued with a name or popped in a poke, great would be the reward, however, we'd (we would) all be better served if we followed the first rule of glory. Speak softly and carry a sanctified halo to use in time of trials and suffering.
