Happy International Women's Day!

(apparently we're supposed to wear purple and not red, #womenpowertothepolls)

This week, I thought we'd riff on awards season since the Oscars just occured.

1. Which Oscar outfit would you wear? You can choose any outfit from the awards season.

(my pick above)

2. Which outfit would you not get caught dead wearing?

3. Since I posted about this in one of the Daily Chews, which celebrity would you want to hang out with?

4. Which celebrity is your spirit animal?

5. What was your pick for the Oscars? (any category) Do you think someone else or another film should have been nominated but was overlooked?

I haven't figured out how to post pics since Photobucket started charging a gazillion dollars.  That's why I'm posting vids.

Come in and share your answers.  Lurkers/Longtime Campers/Everyone is welcome.  Answer one or all of the questions.

Each week I will brave the treacherous waters of Fan Fiction for buried treasure!

Please let the writers know you found them here in the Fic Dive!

Stolen Heart by aspire2write
Captain Edward Cullen was serving his country. He had a plan - lead his team of Green Beret soldiers on this mission to stop a terrorist, finish his tour, and decide what was next: leave the Army or sign up for more. The new doctor on base wasn't part of the plan. Romance wasn't anywhere on his radar, but she may just steal his heart. Expansion of one-shot: Christmas Magic. 

Just getting started here.  I can't wait to learn more about Captain Cullen!

FLASHBACK FIC DIVE:

Saudade by Violet Bliss
Unhappy with her monotonous and seemingly aimless life, 24 year-old Bella Swan sends a wish up into the universe for more. It answers, leading her back to Forks, for a chance to fulfill the destiny always planned for her. But will the reluctant, handsome and butterscotch-eyed Dr Edward Cullen let her? AU. 

Secrets & Wishes by CaraNo
Everyone has secrets, and everyone has wishes. We hope that the latter come true, and secrets...well, we tend to hope they're never unearthed. When Bella's son discovers a time capsule in the woods, her graduating class is going to need a lot more than hope. Same applies to her high school teacher, Edward Cullen. 

Sprinkle of Sunlight by TwiAddictAnne
Fall—a time of sudden rains and cloudless skies ... the harbinger of the miseries of winter. That was when she came into his life. Like a ray of sunshine, she was bright and all things light. But will he let the sunlight sprinkle his colorless world with life? Or will he choose to shut it out? Flashfic. Rated for language and adult situations. 

Welcome to the Monday Morning Hot Guy Campfire. What better way to start your week than a hot guy?

All genres welcome!

*blows into mic* Is this thing on?!

Welcome to the nostalgia campfire!
The idea of this CF (if you guys are interested) is to remember and stroll down memory lane or even discover new (old) things. Over time, We'll get to everything, your favorite band or song, your biggest fashion do's and don'ts, tv shows, hypes and trends you never understood or were all about, movies, toys, celebrity crushes, foods that they don't make anymore these days..anything goes!

For this time however, we'll go with

80s music, to be exact
*What was the first record or cassette (or if you already were fancy back then cd) you remember buying?
*What song is still on your phone in 2018?
*Is there any song you've always hated and just to this day can't understand how that is a hit to so many others?
*Cyndi Lauper or Madonna. You only get to pick one.
*Best soundtrack/or song from a movie of the 80s?
*Best concert? If you're too young to have gone to a show back then, whom would you have liked to see in concert in their hey day?

These are just some conversation starter questions, feel free to add anything you can think of!

So come in and share!
 

Hi Campers, I used to be the Bondfire lighter, but then got caught up with more work hours and running my blog.  I'm hoping to light more fires this year.

For this Week's Bondfire:

1) name/screename

2) Are you still reading fanfic?  Which fandoms are you in?

3) It's Women in History month.  Tell us about a phenomenal woman you admire.

4) We all have limited time online these days. What are your daily check-in sites?  Weekly?  Which sites do you miss?

5) Speaking of fandoms, I've been reading a lot of THG fanfiction the last few months.  Because of this, I checked out Josh Hutcherson's new series on Hulu, Futureman.  I've just finished the pilot and it's different than I expected but I'm loving it.  It's campy, tongue-in-cheek, and involves time travel.  Plus Josh Hutcherson/Peeta is charming, even if he's clueless.  Any new shows that have you surprisingly enjoyed?

6) Finally, when we switched cars yesterday, my husband had Muse playing.  I listened to "Madness" on repeat at least five times.  What songs can you listen to on loop because they are so great?

Everyone is welcome to join in!  Answer one or all the questions, it's up to you!
