*sips wine* hello, campers. It's my day off - not from work, but from everything in general. I just woke up and showered a bowl of whole milk with cocoa puffs and Reese's mixed together. I was fashioning a banner for a certain story (not saying which!) for, like, half an hour or something, read through the HDB update (SPOILER: did you hear? she's gonna be emancipated! I'm so excited!) and watched re-runs.

Anyway,  I was on twilighted just now and I was looking for a thread on this story and came across someone reccing a fic to someone. Basically, I read the title and it was 'You Belong to Me', and I chuckled in an instant. Because, see, when I was really new to the fandom, I read a story that I think was called You Belong To Me and I liked it, a lot. It updated very infrequently, but I loved it regardless.

I haven't read it in ages, so I decided to search for it on twilighted. A couple of stories came with that title but it wasn't the same plot. Now, I'd never thought I'd do this, but if you're in the mood - I need to play a round of 'find-that-fic'.

It's not really that popular, so I'm not sure if you've heard of it. I remember quite a bit of it, so that make this game a little easier.

Bella and Edward are like, the bestest friends and their in senior year of high school. The plot's pretty simple. Uh, Edward is in a serious relationship though, with Tanya but Bella's, like, in love with him. So, the whole story is in her point of view I think, at least up till where I read, and by accident - at a part, Bella and Edward kiss. They immediately apoligize for it, but long story short, they make out quite a bit for the next few weeks. And even though they don't say it aloud, they've both become friends with benefits. Note that Tanya and Edward are still in a relationship.

Uh, in the first scene we see Bella lying on her stomach on the bed, pretending to read Moby Dick but she's actually listening to Edward talk on the phone with Tanya. I remember this one chapter where she tries to send a letter to him, saying that she doesn't want do this anymore. She founds out later that Tanya and Edward were never really together throughout the whole 'friends with benefits' thing, and I don't know what happens next.

The story's snarky, fluffy, funny, a little angsty, from what I can recall - so if any of you could remember who the author was or the title, I'd be very grateful. Thanks.

Eye candy, anyone?

Shhhhh. I'm playing hooky from work today. From midnight til 2am I worked on removing malware from my PC. Then from 8-11am this morning I spent part of my time on the phone with tech support for my internet provider and the majority of time installing anti-virus/security software junk and cleaning out my system.

And ohmygod why is my computer running so much slooooowwweerrrr now that it has been cleaned out? Jeez!!!

So if I can't be productive at work, at least I can be productive here and start a campfire. I'm sure we all saw the pics and G.A.W.'s post about Rob visiting with John Stamos at Bob Saget's birthday party. This goes along with that.

Do you think this will help jump-start John's career now???

So I just rushed through "Disappear Here" at an alarming rate. It is expertly written, beautiful sad and hysterical all mooshed into one.

Anyhow, seeing as I just started and finished it whats been written in a day, I see that the last update was 5/13/2010 anyone know how regularly she tends to update on this? Or if it's sporadic? I followed the authors link to her blog and see she is surviving cancer, so one can forgive her if she has other things on her mind.

Hi! Me again...another annoying question.

I'm wondering what "What You Thought You Knew" is about?

hmonster has only a description of the history of the story in her summary, not what it's about. Thanks! 

Oh, also, "Gravity" by Nightshade...what's that about?

So i just read a couple of interviews with this lady and I have come to the conclusion that she irritates the crap out of me.

Maybe what I read is a one of and didn't paint her in a good light.

I liked twilight don't get me wrong it's how i discovered Fan Fiction. 

But she's not a great writer, she didn't invent the vampire genre and by writing a book/sequel she isn't doing anybody a favour, which was the impression she was giving in the interview. But like I said maybe she just comes across badly in interviews.

So what are your views? Do you love Miss Meyer? Hate her? Or are you completely indifferent to her?

Not looking to offend any Stephenie Meyer lovers out there, different strokes for different folks and all that. Just curious what others think of her.

Hi guys! I read in a different post that WTOV made Saturday School available for download in Jandco's cabin...but I can't seem to find it! 

Help? Link?

EDIT: HOLY CROW I screwed that up, so anxious to post this!!  I mean the very talented WTVOC! LOL 

fyi, campers: the pdf of saturday school is available in the VIP cabins of jandco, jandcoandwtvoc, and wtvoc.

edit: JENNYFLY WANTS MORE SS EDWARD. please.

Hello Campers!

I've got some srs bsns to share.  EVIDENCE, if you will.  Some of you may scoff at my claims of being stalked by a particular actor.  Many of you laugh and enjoy the entertainment of it.  But I gotta say... things are getting creepier around here.  What started off as a simple game of connect the dots, counting the degrees of seperation between Robert Pattinson and myself (it's only 2), led to other seemingly random connections and coincidences.

I have a theory about coincidences.  I'm beginning to think they're not so random after all.

(Did you know?  Uma Thurman is DIRECTLY linked to every single thing I have LOVED  since 1988?  It's true.  And yes, it's weird)

Do you recall the blue sock incident from about a week ago?  A picture of Rob surfaced, with him wearing bright blue socks.  I laughed.  JANDCO reminded me that just the day before I read one of HER fics, where Bella was searching for a pair of sock-- BLUE socks.  We had a chuckle over that one-- the coincidence of it.

But after a while, certain things are too hard to ignore.

This latest development is just a teensy bit eerie.

We saw yesterday that ROB attended Bob Saget's birthday party, thrown by JOHN STAMOS. 

Now think about it.  HOW RANDOM IS JOHN STAMOS??

When was the last time you just casually chatted about John Stamos?  hmmm..like, NEVER?!?

I think the last time John Stamos made an appearance in any of my conversations was like in 1993. 

Oh wait... I mean on SUNDAY.  THE DAY BEFORE IT WAS REVEALED THAT ROB WAS HANGING OUT WITH HIM.

I submit as evidence, Exhibit A:

On Sunday I was chatting with my good friend, JANDCO.  We were discussing many random things, as we usually do, when somehow, she sent me a link to the following video:

Here is the transcript of our chat.  Please note personal information has been blocked.

Now you tell me, Campers. 

CONSPIRACY or PROOF?!?

I'll let you decide...

Hey Rob~~ Stay out of my computer!!!

I'd like to play a game.  We'll call it "Dear Edward".  This is probably not original at all and I know there's a site called Letters to Rob so hopefully this isn't tantamount to idea stealing but I'm sure the purple font of doom will come down on me if it is.

Anyway, the goal is simple.  Write a letter to Edward in the comments.  It can be serious.  It can be funny.  It can be to a particular fic Edward or SMeyer's Edward or even your own Edward.  Just have fun and play nice.  I KNOW you ladies have imagination so let me see it and entertain your fellow Twilight fans.

I'll post mine in the comments.

Elvis Presley Edward Cullen

Elvis made a whole bunch of movies. And they're kinda the "seen one, seen 'em all" type of thing-- much like fanfic. No offence. I write this stuff too. But how many times can you read about Edward and Bella forging a relationship before all the lines blur together? How many times can you watch Elvis sing to a girl and suspend your disbelief as she plays hard to get for the first half hour of the film?

So here's the thing.

I've got a theory that there's a fic out there to match every one of Elvis's movies.

So, let's start slow. I'll give you a film title & brief synopsis (copypasta from imdb) and if it rings a bell, please scurry out and find the linky-link and post it along with the story summary. Include your own note about similarities & dissimilarities.

For example, we could say that GI Blues is like Scotch, Gin because there's a bet, but it's dissimilar because of everyfuckingthingelse.

Here we go.

Love Me Tender (1956)
Elvis plays Clint Reno, one of the Reno brothers who stayed home while the other went to fight in the Civil War for the Confederate army. When brother Vance comes back from the war, he finds that his old girlfriend Cathy has married Clint. The family has to struggle to reach stability with this issue. Vance is involved in a train robbery, while a Confederate soldier, of Federal Government money. There is a conflict of interest, when Vance tries to return the money, against the wishes of some of his fellow Confederates.

OKAY CAMPERS either tell me I'm nuts or find me a fic with a plot like this. Go!

Does anyone know what happened to the temptation twilight podcast?

In case people haven't seen this from Twi-Crack Addict:

Hit by Destiny is updated.. Go read then come back and chat about it's brilliance :)

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5463682/36/Hit_By_Destiny

Anyone else ever read a sex scene in a fic and wondered if the person writing it has ever actually had sex. 

The one i was just reading contained

Position A - I'm almost 99.9% sure is not physically possible I don't care how much yoga you do.

Position B - Possible, I give you that but bloody uncomfortable.

Also you thrust something that size repeatedly and forcefully down a girls throat she will throw up on it! (unless she has a gag reflex to end all gag reflexes).

Am i alone in my wonderings?  

A little something pretty to look at

EDIT: Or not, lol. why didn't it work??? Ohh well.

I love reading Fan Fiction. I'm always reading a new story, I re-read and check every day for new updates.

But there is one thing that seems so popular: Jerkward. I want to understand why people like that Edward? A manwhore- with no respect for anyone. A jerk who only cares about himself and even in some cases he does, and he is still a pig.

I avoid those stories like the plague. For me even for OOC is not possible, that is not Edward.

So, please let me know what you think about this Edward?

Thank you :)
