A gothic horror novelist who died in 1986. Ever since her death a crappy ghostwriter has been writing books under name, using the same old formula. The original V.C. Andrews is far better than the ghostwriter. Andrews was a wonderful writer who often wrote about dark subjects such as incest, child abuse, and family secrets. They were always different and interesting, and somewhat romance driven. Perhaps her most famous work was Flowers in the Attic. Read her books!

A pick me is a woman that is willing to do anything for male approval. She will embarrass or throw other women under the bus to achieve this goal. The unfortunate thing about a pick me is usually the men they are trying to seek approval from are of poor quality and treat women badly, leaving little real benefit for the pick me.
