		<description>I haven&#039;t read Twilight (sorry, vampires and werewolfs just don&#039;t do it for me) but reading Stephanie&#039;s blogpost two words jump out to me: Edward - rich , Jacob - poor.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know, there&#039;s always something about the strong silent type that calls to me, but yet it&#039;s the alpha that I&#039;d prefer.  I tend to write a balance of strong alpha with a little bit of that quiet, something.

Great thoughts and post! :)</description>

		<description>Good question. I think my favorite heroes have an Alpha shell with a Beta inside.  (Um...I think that&#039;s also called a cream puff...)</description>

		<description>I looooove both. There are times a story needs an alpha and times it needs a beta. On one hand the gruff, direct, arrogant sex hound is nice. On the other the quiet, calm, protective, sweetheart is great. 

I write both, enjoy both and am married to someone that is both. :)</description>

		<description>Sorry, alpha for me.
I don&#039;t like Edward.
In fact, I watched Twilight (because a friend thought I would like it -- shows what she knows...) and I hated it. Absolutely positively hated it. (She made me sit through the damned thing to the end, and all I said was &quot;Don&#039;t ever do that to me again.&quot;)
Mainly because of Edward.

Sorry. :)</description>

		<description>I&#039;m an alpha man-lover.  I did read Vision in White, Nora&#039;s new book, and it had a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful beta hero.  My own hero is beta sided as well...  I think this will be my next goal--to really go to the extreme with my characters.  I think the extremes sell better. Who wants wishy-washy? You know?  Gah. I read stuff like this and wonder if I&#039;m going to have to start all over again, because this ms is not The One. *sigh*

Great post, Steph.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m afraid I&#039;m beta all the way. Beta with backbone, though. :)
 I do enjoy to read a good alpha guy every once in a while, though. *wink*</description>
