MY WEEKLY REC WILL BE WITHIN THE POST TODAY, GUISE. 

B/C TODAY I'M POSTING SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT...

CARRY ON WITH POSTING YOUR FAVORITE FAN VIDEOS HERE!

(AND IF YOU HAPPEN TO FIND SOME GOOD CHIEF SWAN VIDS, POST THEM HERE TOO).

In honor of today's court ruling, I have a confession to make.

Those manly pictures of the Twilight cast everyone spams each other with? They do nothing for me. Rob's pretty, but Kellan sets of my cheese alarm, and Jackson gives me the (bad kind of ) shivers.  I'm not that picky.... I just don't much go for naked man-meat.

But there are some hot ladies in the Twi-dom, and I know lots of campers have an appreciation for that sort of thing.  Kstew's butt has its own twitter, after all!

So, since I am technically challenged and can't figure out this hording and posting pictures business myself, I'm leaving it to all of you.  Post your hottest shots of the laydeeze of the Twi-cast for me and all the other laydee lovers of the forest.  Pretty please? 

Before you read this, make sure you've gone into one of the two RANGER TOR BIRTHDAY CAMPFIRES and left some love, adoration, gifs, or at least a smile for Tor, who is 24 today!

~*~*~

Done? Good!

Today, pursuant to a request, I am requesting a type of fic I have NEVER EVEN READ before.  But I will. If you show me some good ones!

Looking for fan fiction in which EDWARD is a famous guy!   Rock star, movie star, tormented author...  (Wait, I may have read one of those!) share with the Forest your recommendations for stories where Edward is famous.  (Even if he uses a pseudonym to be so!)

Friday of this week, I will be posting a list of lists.  A list with all the Fic Rec lists we have compiled as Campers.  So I am not linking them all here right now.

For this campfire, remember the rules:  KEEP IT SIMPLE.  NO DISCUSSIONS.   

P.S. YESTERDAY'S campfire of High School fic recs was epic! We got a ton of recommendations in there. Keep it up!

I have only one recommendation I think for this campfire. I'll post it within. :)

Thank you for any stories you may have for a FAMOUS EDWARD fic!

Okay, so last week we talked about Robert Pattinson's butt. Thank you, littlesecret84!
How about we continue the appreciation?

Let's start with an obvious - but wonderful nontheless - feature: The Hair.
Share your best pics and tell us why you like them.

Mine are in the comments, but for starters, something pretty FYT.
 

This has got to be one of my favorite pics from a beautiful shoot! Love both of their hair here. So casual, so pretty...

OMG I LOVE YOU GUYS

THERE'S SO MUCH TO LOOK AT AND REPLY TO

THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY BIRTHDAY AMAZING AND SPAMMING THE SHIT OUT OF BILLY BURKE!

LET'S PARTY

THE PLAYLIST WAS MADE BY MY SISTER JENNDAY.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE SONG, YOU CAN CLICK NEXT. AND A DIFFERENT ONE POPS UP

Thank you all for participating in tonight's read-a-long for Don't Take the Girl.  I appreciate it loads! :D  You all made my night.

So... in approx 1 hour it will have been 24 years since my best friend and companion was born. 

Victoria!!!!!! AKA Tor

So, campers please lets show her some birthday wishes as I can't do it alone :D

Also, this post approved by me - cuz I said so :)

I was hoping the endless pool of FF knowledge here could help me out...for some reason tonight a memory of a fic popped in my head and I can't place it for the life of me.  All I can remember is Bella telling Edward that music sounds better when you go through the car wash and so they go through and he kisses her, I don't think they are properly dating at this point just hanging out.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I absolutely adore Jane.  So, I wrote this.

And now I want more.  Give me your great Jane fics, and if you don't know one, then write one.

I demand more Jane.

xoxoxoxo

I don't know if anyone else does this, but have you ever thought about what fanfics could be turned into, like movie or sitcom-wise?

Like, For the Summer by camoozle could most definitely be one of those hour-long shows, and every season could be one summer. They'd have to extend a lot, but wouldn't FtS make an amazing weekly show? Frick, I'd most definitely watch it obsessively.

Or, The Office by tby789 (are those numbers right?) could be a soap opera. And Paper CutOuts could be a sitcom. And Cascade and Cynaide could be a dramatic film. And Breaking News could be a weekly show, too.

Anyone else have any good fanfic-to-TV conversions?

Those of you who know me, or follow me on Twitter, know that I have a beautiful 11 year old who I lovingly refer to as Mean Girl.

My emotionally aggressive little lovely is in a particularly fowl mood today because she has to wear a 24 hour heart monitor. She's been doing this once a year since she was 6 months old, but that doesn't diminish her raging over it.

So I'm respectfully asking begging for your help. Post a funny pic for my Mean Girl. She's not real fond of people most of the time, but she has a never ending love affair with animals, so find a funny animal pic or vid and turn her frown upside down.

GAW gave her blessing to save my sanity.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 – 11/16/12
Director: Bill Condon
Cast: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner
The astonishing conclusion to the series, THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN, PART 2, illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic that has entranced millions

Here's the source to the article on www.twilightlexicon.com.

How does this make you feel?  Just because I know everyone's talking about it.

My thoughts will be in the comments.

When I decided to devote this week's campfire to Kristen's smile, I didn't know I'd be having THE WORST DAY EVER. I'm in one of those really, really foul moods, so I don't know why I'm even bothering with this right now. But I found some pics, and  I love her smile, and I hope she's having a blast in Montreal working on OTR. So show me what you love. The smirk? The giggle? The big silly grin? The sly barely-there smile? IDK.

JUST TRY TO MAKE ME SMILE, DAMMIT. Or each other. Or yourselves. Whatever. Here are some gifs to start things off.

(and yes, the dakota/kris giggle gif will be posted every week, regardless of what we're appreciating)

Hey Campers!

Let's face it... this is a mostly-Twilight fansite....but we're between movies and there isn't much going on in the Twi-verse so the woods are a bit quiet.

SO LET'S TALK

Anything you want.... the more off-topic the better.

Tell me what yer doing...

Tell me what yer SUPPOSED to be doing...

Tell me what you WANT to be doing (or who lol)...

ANYTHING!

i googled 'something random' and found this :)

Nature must really abhor a vacuum. I have suffered a severe absence of good Emmett and/or Rosalie fic. By the sweet offices of campfires here and breadcrumb trails on twitter, I have been led to a treasure mountain.

Just want to share the joy, with anyone else who might be looking for something similar.

Mockingbird 1915 to 1960 and Lilies, by hmonster4

Mockingbird: exquisitely structured story of Rosalie's coming to terms with her life after death. Canon. o/s

Lilies: dark/tragic Emmett -- what if he inadvertently gave Rosalie what she wanted most of all, but the price, ah, the price ... AU. Long enough to develop the concept fully, but a one-shot nonetheless.

Little Singer, by winterstale

In the land between past and present, between memory and thirst, between lost and found: the fragile song echoes. Canon. o/s.

In the Land of a Thousand Years, by flute_genevive

I've only just started it but it promises to be a lovely tale of the Cullens, Emmett and Rosalie centered, sensitive and rich.  Canon, multi-chap, WIP.

*

I can't believe how few reviews these stories have -- perhaps because they (except for Thousand Years) are one-shots? Anyway if you haven't read, they are gems just waiting to be discovered ...  and leave a little love if you liked.  I did. <3

Hey lovely ladies,

I know you can read FF stories on your kindle but I was wondering if it was possible to read stories from this here forest on there too????

Can anybody help? 

Cheers my dears : )

For lots of folks, school starts this month. For some, even this WEEK!  Gak!

I got another request in my inbox to have a fic list compilation of HIGH SCHOOL FICS, featuring the familiar cast of Twilight. Indeed, I see this request at least once a fortnight or so here in the Forest, so this should be a TERRIFIC LIST!

As with the campfire yesterday, I figure this is an anything goes list.  AH (which I imagine will be prevalent), AU, ratings from mild to mature, I invite you to bring your favorites to share around the fire. Then, the next time someone visits the Forest and wants to know what WE recommend for the best High School fics, they can either do a search on the compass icon OR we can point them to THIS LIST!

Remember to punch the heart up at the top of this campfire before you go inside if you want to mark this as a favorite!  It's always good if you can find it again, eh?  I mean, not all of us want to revisit high school, but most of us LOVE watching other people suffer through it. ;-)

My first recommendations will be inside, as always.

Thank you, awesome CAMPERS, for sharing your fics around the fire!

No, I don't mean the wedding day.

I mean for the appointment with infinity.

Alice keeps insisting that I need to pay serious attention to my grooming because however I look on the big day will be how I look eternally-- aside from the natural enhancements wrought by the change itself.

But specifically, she keeps mentioning WAX and tattoos and other adornments that she thinks might make me feel attractive for all eternity.

Rosalie even backs Alice up on this, offering me images from a file she calls "Sacrificial Grooming" which consists of artwork through the ages of nubile young women on their way to meet death at the hand of a demon.

I'll share some with you:

So, my issue is this: I tend to keep my nether-parts well-kept but natural. I shave and trim to keep it neat, but I've never waxed, and I really don't want to. But do I heed Alice's warning of ETERNAL STUBBLE?

Also, I know fashions in body hair come and go.

What's my best bet?

How do you keep yours?

I saw some commercials and honestly it didn't look too terrible, if I may say =]

Anyway, I'll basically let you guys go where you want with this...

Suggestions:  What do you think they'll put in it?  How likely is it that you're going to go see this (I probably will)?  Do you have high hopes for it?

Say what ya thinkin ^^
