I have fond memories of reading L.J. Smith's YA Paranormal novels throughout my middle and high school years. To this day, the Forbidden Game Trilogy remains one of my favorite YA stories. With the advent of the CW show The Vampire Diaries, Smith has become more well-known as the years have progressed. I thought all was well within the TVD world...I was not aware of all the turmoil surrounding her contract with her publishing house...nor was I aware that she was recently dropped from her publishing contract. While I haven't kept up with The Vampire Diaries print stories, I am an avid watcher of the CW show. It's definitely disappointing to know that the "endgame" of TVD (both print and tv) will be written by somebody else and not the original author. I was happy to see this article floating around on the web this morning...a good example of how Ms. Smith isn't letting her forced departure from her vampire series deter her from writing her own version of the TVD endgame. Fans of L.J. Smith, enjoy this article from The Daily Dot aptly titled "How the Creator of 'Vampire Diaries' used Kindle Worlds to Get Back at Her Publisher".
