AHAHAHAHAHAHA - She's so surprised that someone compared her writing to Meyer's! And favourably, too, so she definitely knows it's not trolling! THAT. IS. GOLD. :D
In terms of writing mechanics, I would rate Meyer a little higher than Gethsemane, to be honest. This woman is so goddamn repetitive and manages to make characters as wild and colourful as Captain Jack Sparrow bland. That's a few steps below creating your own bland and two-dimensional characters.
I have not seen the movie, only the trailer, which is all I have to go on at this moment; I've never seen the play.
... *stares* Are you serious. I dare to write fanfic for any show only after having seen every episode available at that point, get myself familiar with details and nuances I might've missed while watching, read the fics on the rec lists for that fandom for months, write and scratch out half a dozen first attempts, and even then I'm deadly nervous about making it public. And you wrote fanfic on something after only having seen the TRAILER?!
Oh, right. It's Johnny Depp. Right, okay. Moving on.
The wedding bit just made me laugh. Are people actually buying this? I can't imagine why else she'd keep these delusions going.
