*giggle* Um, sorry. ;) I haven't read Brown, but heard enough about his novels to not feel any particular need to read them.
Not complaining - just surprised. :) Then again, Nabokov wrote Lolita, and the text from my WIP definitely was a steamy and a bit unusual scene... However I can't lay claim to "complex plots, clever word play, and use of alliteration" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_nabokov)!
Also looked at Chuck Palahniuk's Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Palahniuk) and seeing the definition of transgressional/transgressive fiction (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgressional_fiction), it does make sense, considering my Kevin story definitely "focuses on characters who feel confined by the norms and expectations of society and who break free of those confines in unusual and/or illicit ways."
