Hai thur.

I tried, i reeeeeeally tried.  To catch up on all the campfires from the past three weeks (hey!  I did NOT flounce, i was on VACATION in Cincinnati, OH!-I don't get out much and well, I was at a homeschool conference there).  LOVE my grammar and punctuation, right?  :D

I got to page 3 and gave up.  Someone posted a Tyson Ritter pic and i squeed more than all the Rob pics I saw.

So why am i posting this now, you ask?

I was wondering if anyone happened to read the new SMeyer NOVELLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAA...or whatever it is.

Did you? 

I don't wanna buy it if its CRAP and I have YET to break out my copy of New Moon from its pretty packaging cuz well, "Its Jacob's movie" and I don't wanna look at his mug, as much as I like puppies and all.

TELL ME ABOUT THIS BOOK:

Ask me any question at all about anything. I'll set my zune on shuffle the first song that plays is your answer.

Lets the games begin... Cuz i totally take advantage of Friday free for all.

I'll start with my own question:

Question: Will I ever get over my disgusting infatuation with Jacob?

Answer: Set the fire to the third bar - Snow Patrol

 ETA: Song meaning I'm assuming that it refers to old-fashioned style electric heaters you used to get which had a series of heat-emitting bars- the 1st bar would give you gentle heat, the second slightly higher, the third even warmer and so on.
The song seems to be about the cold and lonely feeling of being a long way apart from someone you love and "we'd set the fire to the third bar" about the increased warmth you would feel if you were with them.

As a huge fan of yours (see totes sqeegurl post below)

I need to know WHY you love The Elite so much. And I know you do, cause I know you recc' it alot on here when there's a post where it'd fit in, and it's on your faves

I read the summary, and I'm totally into it, but then i see it's an  Alice/Emmett story.

Tell me why to read it when I'm mostly Edward/Bella

Are they cutting down on the promotion or is this just the final trailer before the exclusive clips start rolling out?

DO YOU PLAY ROCK BAND? OR ARE YOU A GUITAR HERO?

I suck at the drums, but I'm really kickass at the guitar. I avoid singing at all costs. No one should be subjected to that.

What's your favorite game? 80's? Metallica? Beatles?

What's your difficulty?

I like hard (TWSS IN BEFORE WTVOC)

TELL ME

Here is a pic of John playing:

starting this campfire cause I know Jandco is on right now reading!!

can't even begin to tell you how much I love your stuff.

Seriously, your stuff was the first I recommended to my co-worker breaking into the fandom.

And you always answer my messages, makes you rock HARD

Really really love everything you've ever written

I've mentioned numerous times that tattoos really get me hawt and bothered. Its a Friday night and I'm lonely so make my night people and show me your beautiful art work,

OR Tattoos you want to get but are to chicken shit to get. haven't gotten around to it yet.

Here's mine. I got it in September for my B-day. Totally illegally though, You gotta be 18 to get a tattoo in Texas even with parental consent, I'm bad ass like that though. Sometimes I even check out in the 10 item or less isle with more than 10 items. ;-)

Ignore my fat feet and toes.

 FROM FANFICTION!!!!!

Ok...I know each and every single one of you have read something in a fic that makes you cringe.  Something that just ain't right and needs to be banned.

"Dripping core", "Edward was hard as granite", "popped the p".

Tell me kiddos...what is it that bothers the shit out of you when you read fanfiction?

OMG I'm not quite buzzed....

but i'm working on it!

I'm also...umm, actually WORKING.

on a Friday night.

with wine...so it's cool.

ANYWAY........the reason for this campfire??

YOU, my dear chickadees...

Friday Free For All brings out the lurkers among us.  And I wanna know who you are!!

Don't Hide.  STOPPIT!

DO THIS INSTEAD>>>

~~Tell me something RANDOM about you

~~Say something nice about someone you know/love/admire here in the Forest

~~share a pic of yerself, if yer so inclined

~~if you don't wanna show yer face....then gimme some ROB CANDY!

~~what song do you love but yer ashamed to admit

I'm abusing my status as a VIP author here  (and the fact that it's Free for All Friday) to shamelessly pimp and self-promote. Girl with a Red Umbrella, the story I co-author with fellow ADF VIP author, justaskalice, is now complete. So if you were waiting until it was done, now it is.

And for your time tonight, some eye-candy. Our inspiration for Girl with a Red Umbrella Edward:

or

How J-Lo got that ASS

The pictures pretty much tell it all.

We parked a ways away and had to walk up to the entry way. I'd only ever seen The Incline from a distance.

As we neared the true extent of what I had let myself in for became apparent -

And I did this

My friend - bless her heart - offered me words of reassurance. 'One step at a time,' she said.

Riiiiiiight.....

At about a quarter of the way up my vision (mych like that terrible pic up there) turned blurry...but, I took said friends advice and took it one step at a time, not looking up.

Half way up, after our 5th break and my 3rd attempt at coughing up my lungs I decided I'd better take a pic or two for posterity - you know, to prove I actually tortured talked myself into keeping on going. My innder self was convinced I had become a sadist.

And this is us at the halfway point - proof - see, there's me. No fancy photoshopping. Look behind us, yes, that vertical climb was still ahead of us - that little brown strip in the distance. And those steps you see? Yeah, the were the easy ones. There were plenty that had huge rusted old drainage pipes in front of them, or fallen boulders, where I was litterally kneeing myself into the shoulder to take a step up.

Daunting.

But, we did it (did I mention I was also carrying about 15lbs of photography gear and crap on my back?)

Us at the top

Now I'm sure you'd all agree the best part would be coming down - and you'd be right, it was. Gorgeous. Beautiful. THe clouds had come down - we were rambling through the mist, huge ancient granite Boulders stood frozen at imposible angels on the mountain side. It was quite, cold, misty and almost bluish in colour - yes, you can see where I'm goign with this can't you? I couldn't resist it. I went traipsing through the undergrowth calling out Edwards name (fortunately for me I'm agile, no tripping over) I even found the exact spot where Edward and Bella spoike those famour Lion/Lamb lines (well I swear it was, I know I'm really in CO, but honestly, it looked just like it)

Anyway, I digress.

A couple more shots that don't do the gorgeous surroundings justice due to mylack of a proper lens

See, doesn't it look a little familiar? The fangirl in me was just dying to unleash herself.

And, just because and the emergence of Spring seems to put a smile on everyone's face

My arse is killing me, my knees and ankles are swollen...but I'm doing it again next week.....

Happy Weekend Everyone. What will you do that you don't think you can do?

Well, this is my first campfire... Hello everyone.

I'm new to ADF, but have become quite addicted to reading this blog.... I will admit I've spent quite a few hours reading more than ever really wanted to know about Robbie P. this past week. I just never knew the power he welds with his nice bone structure…

Anyway, I'm looking for some help. I recently read a fic called, Redshift, Blueshift by Its29 (Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5426169/1/ ) and have become a little obsessed with the idea that Bella's the vampire instead of Edward. I've been in the fandom for a few years now and haven't ever read a fic with Bella as a vampire - I know, I’m shocked too.

Does anyone know of a well-written, entrancing Bella-vampire fic to rec me? It would be much appreciated.

[If I knew how you post a picture of Rob, I would. Right… here.]

Well, "disobedience" may be a little overboard, but I have decided to...

DO SOME FANDOM-HOPPING (*le gasp*).

I want to read some Supernatural fic--preferable focused on this fine male specimen:

Does anybody here read SPN fic who will rec me some stuff? Also, has anyone else here belong to any other fandoms? Does the way you feel toward one fandom affect the way you view another?

Here's some pretty boy gifs for everyone's viewing pleasure:

Happy Friday, everyone!

For my school, this past week was spring break. I love time away from school, teachers, homework, and petty high school drama, but I was bored. This probably would've been different if my mom didn't have work until 5 every night, but some things can't be changed.

Where am I going with this? The past five days, I've been reading like crazy. The problem I have now is that I've run out of things to read. So I'm asking for a little help from you guys. I only ask that they be rated T and be Edward/Bella in terms of pairings. (and before anyone asks, yes, I am reading An Introduction to Swirl and Daisy.)

Thank you. :)

mah girlfriends and I were talking about fetishes today...

which leads me to my question:

what's your fetish?

Hey everyone!!!!!

my name is Sarah, but some of you may know me as Sorcha_Cullen or AngelStardust depending on the fandom site you're on haha... I'm here to say hello and try to figure this place out!

Okay, so we all know the Twilight fandom is made up of all different sorts of people. I mean, that's what makes this particular fandom so awesome! It's everywhere!

So, do you have an accent?

I'm a Canadian, specifically from Saskatchewan, and I have a twang. 

Oh, hells yes, ladies and gentleman. I master the "Ingram twang." It's my family's twang. Only my father and I have it, and my mom makes fun of me for it allll the time. I went to Kenya this past summer with kids from all over the U.S. and Canada, and they made fun of me for said twang. 

So I say hilarious funny? Big fucking deal. Maybe I say other words different too, but it sure brings all the boys to the yard better than milkshakes.

Share your accent with me! 

So here's a little something I've been wondering.  For those of you who write fic, in what do you do your writing?  I'm not talking about laptop vs. desktop, or where you sit, but more what tools do you use?

Personally, I write everything in Microsoft Word (2007) and save it to a flash drive, and then copy it to my desktop's hard drive fairly regularly.  I know there are people who do all their writing in GoogleDocs, and perhaps others who write directly in the document editor on fanfiction.net.  Maybe some people use pen and paper and type it all up later?  Email drafts?  Notepad?

So how about you?  Where do you do your fic writing?

Here's a picture of the flash drive I use, just because it's so pretty:

And a picture of Jackson, cuz he's very pretty too: ;)
