Hi all of you lovely campers!

I wanted to share with you all that I've finished my first multi chap fic on fanfiction. It is complete since a couple of hours and I'm so proud. Should you be interested: Believe a J/B fic, AU, starts right before Bella's 18th birthday. It's a collab with my good friend Kaitsa and now I'm kind of sad it's over. But it's a happy kind of sad, if you know what I mean.

So, what about you? Are you writing? Is it going smoothly or are you having a hard time? Are there any other accomplishments you are proud of? Or are there just some random facts you wanted to share with the rest of us? 

FYT:

Something happened to me while I was watching Eclipse recently.  Something that I never thought would happen, but it has, and now I have spiraled into a perpetual state of confusement.  I have... feelings... strange feelings for this guy...

That is all.

ALL CAPS PURPLE RANGER EDIT: TELL US ABOUT YOUR WEEKEND IN ALL CAPS

Has anyone seen The Gates?  I was way jazzed to see the chick from the Underworld series starring in it.  Now let's hope it's not the beginning of a run of awful vamp tv shows...

Edit:  Watched as much as I could of last night's episode (the first for me)  Rating and comments inside.

So I have a long road trip ahead of me tomorrow. I'm tired of the stuff on my MP3 and I'm looking for something new. Anyone got something for me?

It hasn't escaped my notice that there has been a spike in interest in Riley since the part was cast, and especially since the film came out.  If anything, Eclipse wasn't about choosing Team Jacob or Team Edward, it was all about seducing us over to the dark side.

^ ^ ^ This is the dark side

I seriously heard girls leaving the screen saying 'I'm over Edward.  I want Riley!'

So I thought it was about time there was a campfire where everyone could share their love for him.

Disclaimer: it's still possible to be Team Edward and Team Riley, and if Twitter rumours are anything to go by, we will soon be seeing some Edward/Riley slash.

This campfire is dedicated to Octoberland, who is the founding member of Team Riley.

So today is 4th of July! a very important day for America! yaayyy

but in Brazil that just mean that we're going to see Independece day  with Will Smith again on tv! XD

And plus today is my B-day!  I'm 27 years old now! 10 years older than Edward...sniff!

a little story:                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Once (when I lived in Florida) a colleague of mine asked if I was Happy to have fireworks for my birthday....it was so sad to to tell her that we didn't have fireworks for 4th of july in Brazil...she didn't understand tho! O__o and asked me why not?!                                                I told her our independece day was the 7th of september...and yet she asked me...  WHY?  I just kept silent...it was the best to do...

SO FOR MY  BIRTHDAY ...CAN I ASK A PRESENT? 

POST THE BEST  RPATZZ  PICS  IN YOUR OPINION... I WOULD BE THRILLED!

THANK YOU !!!!

HAPPY    INDEPENDENCE DAY !!!!!!!!

Seen as it's FFAW I figured I'd do this

What're you afraid of?

I have a ridiculous phobia of wax models, however this also extends to marionettes, punch and judy puppets and the people who dress up as characters at Disney.

Wax models that move are my undoing, I would go insane at madame toussauds.

I'm also afraid of the dark and spiders but not as much as wax models xD

So, what're your phobias? what are you afraid of?

OH! and Happy 4th of July to all the Americans out there :)

OMG! I'm so buzzed right now.  We saw the best fireworks tonight and we saw KENNY LOGGINS play LIVE and it was AWESOME...

I DIED WHEN HE SANG FOOTLOOSE.

Okay... so CAPPY and I are sitting here talking about ROB and FIC and everything that we LOVE...(and a few things that we hate.)

I've also gotten her addicted to the magic that is WASABI PEAS omg they're so good!!

We agree on just about everything.

Mostly agree that THIS MAN... is HOT and needs some love in the Forest...

Tell us Campers...

what do you love?!?

Hi Campers!

So, I am a plethora of useless knowledge, have been told I am awesomely random, and that I notice the weirdest things about...nothing at all. Having said that: I am going to see Eclipse for the first time on Monday (I KNOW! Gah. Stupid Real Life obligations...blah, blah, blah).

Anyhoo...

Is there anything I should be on the look out for this time around?

Like...how I immediately noticed the Wonky Mipple in NM?

Or...how Rob was desperatley searching for a stick or leaf to fiddle with on Kimmel?

THOSE types of things. Any in Eclipse that I will get distracted by? (Teh Pretteh in sparkly vamp skin does not count, I suppose).

Lemme know?

More and More CAMPERS have seen ECLIPSE so it is time for another

**ECLIPSE REVIEW CAMPFIRE**

Add anything else you would like, I will compile all of the reviews and the STAR RATINGS later next week so you still have time to get involved!

Hey everyone:D Has anyone read Vampires Academy here? I got the third book as a present from my friend ( she didnt knw it was a series) so i was wondering if anyone knws its any good? should i buy the rest of the books or no??

Yesterday it was decided that the majority of you love these campfires. And if you LOVE them, you have to PARTICIPATE in them!!!!

Every Saturday here in the forest we tell each other what we are reading and what OTHERS NEED TO BE READING.

It is where to come if you need to know what everyone loves. 

THIS WEEK, I want to know which fics you are PASSIONATE about. Which fics that, if it were possible, you would FORCE everyone to read.

FOR EXAMPLE:

I am PASSIONATE about High Noon. Why? It's Post-Eclipse AU and the PERFECT read for post-movie-viewing. It has a great, fulfilling plot that gets better with every chapter. Edward is HOT and I love Bella. Jake is written VERY well and with DEPTH. Little things that I wanted to happen DO HAPPEN. IT IS WRITTEN BY JANDCO AND JENNYFLY, my two favorite fanfiction authors and it updates often. There is nothing NOT to love. This story OWNS me. I am practically begging for more. I think I bug J&J about it WAY TOO MUCH and they are even more excited about writing it than I am about reading it. If I could get everyone reading this story I would. It is amazing.

Here is a LINK: HIGH NOON 

It updated WEDNESDAY and a little birdy told me that it is going to update again VERY SOON!

Now it's your turn! But remember, this is a REC THREAD ONLY, save your pimps for Wednesday!!

HAPPY 4TH ALL!

I just found this online.

How did I not know it existed?

Please to be showing me your favorite t-shirts/shirts.

The more amusing the better.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!

EVEN THOUGH IT'S JUST THE 3RD...

TODAY MY DAUGHTERS WERE IN A PARADE AND IT WAS HOT AND LONG BUT IT WAS FUN.

THE BEST PART THOUGH...

CAPRICORN75 IS HERE IN OHIO, SPENDING THE WEEKEND WITH ME!!

here we are at the parade...

 Campers... you would NOT believe the trials and tribulations it took for CAPPY to get here.  SHE AND I ARE NOT ALLOWED TO NAVIGATE TOGETHER... AT ALL.  She got lost like 4 times, drove through the worst ghetto in Columbus Ohio....but she finally made it.

Here we are in my daughter's room...

that's cherie's face that got cut off.... Oh, and just ignore the Taylor pic... we do!

Later.... we are going to the fireworks... AND...

we're gonna see KENNY LOGGINS.. LIVE!!

Omg I'm excited!!

Because we've got a lot to give!

FGB is almost over, but Team LittleCiaoOnTime is still taking pledges!

Here's what Ciaobella27, WriteOnTime, and I are offering:

1 outtake from my story, Brown Study. Both Edward and Jane POVs of the events in chapters 17 & 18.

1 outtake from ciaobella27’s Living Backwards. Option #1 - Edward goes back in time and must convince Bella that’s he’s time traveling, and she shouldn’t get onto the plane to NY. Option #2 - Bella confesses to Edward that she time traveled. Obviously, these will be silly.

1 outtake from WriteOnTime’s Breaking News. Option #1 - Edward POV of the flight to Kansas to cover the tornado. Option #2 - what happens when Bella falls asleep in Edward's arms at the end of that day.

1 installment of littlesecret84/ciaobella27's critically-acclaimed TomStu RPF – Boy on the Side. (The critic is WriteOnTime. She acclaims us all the time.)

I was going to share some awesome Eclipse gifs to get you guys excited, but I'll probably get into trouble for that.

Anyway, here's the link to join the Team and pledge if you guys are interested: http://web.me.com/k.rito/Team_LCO/Welcome.html

(thanks to caro2lalala for putting together the Team, and our favorite ranger, Tor, for the awesome banner!)

Why Team Jacob always has to lose in Twilight

By Annalee Newitz (sauce)

Watching Twilight: Eclipse in the theater is like going to a sporting event. There are teams; there is cheering. But one team is always doomed to lose. What fantasy is being fed by this strange competition?

I will confess up front: I am Team Jacob, all the way. Have been since the first movie, when Jake was a skinny kid from the wrong side of the treeline. Though Twilight and New Moon showed main character Bella torn between vampy Edward and wolfy Jacob, Eclipse is all about how and why she rejects Jacob for the last time. When evil vamp Victoria raises an army of newborn vamps to slaughter Bella, the local wolf pack has to work with the vampire Cullen family to drive the menace out of Forks. And that drives Bella toward Jacob in a way she's never been before.

The reasons why she rejects him are key to understanding what Eclipse is really about.

I might would leave Cristiano for you, maybe. Sorta. Well, at least you're still in it . . . !
