Peeps,

we have a problem in our little corner of the world. One of our campers needs medical/insurance advice, money, and just general GET THE F'ING WORD OUT.

Here is her GofundMe. http://www.gofund.me/v9vqb5n

Help in any way you can, share, donate, give advice. Her story is in the 6/9 daily chew. If you had no other option what would you do?

I'm not asking as a ranger, I'm asking as a fellow camper because I know we can get the word out.

MrsCB Edit: Let's stick this sucker 

Batman Edit: Glad to see this back up here, I wasn't sure how long we should keep it up.

Hey Campers! Come here and tell us what you're reading!

For a change, I thought we could talk book covers in this post also.  What are  your faves and least faves?

I'm pretty fond of this new cover for the Judy Blume classic

Each week I will brave the treacherous waters of Fan Fiction for buried treasure. Below are the gems I've found this week!

One lonely little newbie this week.

Unravel by SomeoneYou'reNot
When Bella Swan decides to move to Forks, Washington to be with her father, a skilled criminal investigator, she soon discovers that life with her father isn't quite what she expected. Factor in the gorgeous but infuriating Special Agent-turned-babysitter Edward Cullen, and a group of vengeful American mobsters, and pretty soon finishing senior year is the least of Bella's worries.

This one is just getting going.  Good start.

FLASH BACK FIC DIVE:

An American Vampire in Chicago by Just4ALE
Bella is a business school student when she meets Edward, a PhD student. Is this handsome stranger too good to be true? AU/Vampires/Humans. My vamps are slightly different from SM's. Indie TwiFic Award Winner!

Sleeps with a Vampire by Just4ALE
Sequel to An American Vampire in Chicago. Read as B&E's relationship develops. Family and friends make an appearance, causing a few bumps. AU/Vampires/Humans. My vamps are slightly different from SM's.

These stories are the first two in a four part series.  I didn't have the time to get to all four this week, but I liked these two and hope to get to the last two soon!

Shattered Hearts by Greye Granger
Bella knows what it's like to be alone, and when the only person she's ever really loved commits the ultimate betrayal, she turns to the man who's wife has stolen her husband. E/B. RATED M. TATTWARD. BPOV.

Seven Forty-Three by CullensTwiMistress
Maps dictate where we go, but they don't always take us home. City subway tunnels and dim street lights converge, bringing two people infinitely closer. Will a chance meeting lead them to forever? Maybe it was only a matter of time. Collaboration with Maplestyle. Romance; BxE; Rated M.
 
Thanks All!

Hola Campers!  It's time for our weekly Tree Feed Campfire!  
Come on, Lurkers!  
Let us know you're there!

My kids are driving me crazy with constantly wanting to download new music.  I gave the old, "When I was your age, we couldn't just click a button and have new songs!  We had to go out to a store and physically purchase it!"

When you were younger, what was the first music item you saved up your money for and bought on your own?  What format was it in?

My ads this week are for:
Do you have gut yeast?  Again??  I am so grossed out.  Not clicking.
Visit North Platte Nebraska
"Obama" urging me to refinance my mortgage
OH!  Now Gwynnie Bee wants me to be their next model!

Don't forget the new rules for 2015. Request a guy for your birthday week + as long as he hasn't worn the crown in 6 months, you can have him!

Hi Campers, this week's Author Spot is the first in the series featuring "Hidden Gems" that Tarbecca finds while Fic Diving for fanfic treasure.

We have the brilliant Shadow Masen here discussing her WIP "Come Back Tomorrow".
 

OMG! In Dorne at least they don't hurt little girls.

MrsCB Edit: Added the tag for it- there's been one, who knew?   Thanks, it was my first campfire. I feel like a woman now!

Gather around the campfire for today we are discussing In.a.blue.bathrobe's Tropic of Virgo, a story of music, wrong girls, Kate Bush, emo poetry writing, roofies, stage fright, and sex - just your typical high school.

Upcoming campfires:

Sunday 21 June: Wide Awake by angstgoddess

Sunday 5 July: Hit by Destiny and outtakes, by ocdmess

Sunday 19 July For the Summer by Camoozle

What do you think of this fic?

What do you think of the music that plays such a big part of the fic?

I swear I need a memory implant, but never mind, I wanna know who all is going to Jurassic World next weekend?

Hey guys!

So a while ago I promised I would take charge of a music CF, so this is it! Sorry for the delay but RL has been insanely busy with exams, interships and a bad case of the flu... but enough of me let's get to it.

I'll be posting this CF every saturday and I'll always but some kind of theme for it, but you're always welcome to add anything you like!

In this cf you can talk about anything music, your favourite tunes, what's new, any suggestions you want to share, whatever you're obsessed with, promote your band (if you are in one and want to shamelessly show of your talent)

Oh and this is our most beautiful banner, made by the lovely mirrorlight! Thank you so much for that.

So for this weeks theme I thought we could talk about music in Fanfic. I've been rereading Tropic of Virgo for the classic fic read-a-long, so I've been inspired. So here are some questions for you:

Do you know any fics that are centered around music?

Have you discovered any songs/artists through fic?

Any song that reminds you of a specific fic? Or a song that was particularly fitting?

Feel free to add any question you like. Let the music flow ;)

XO JC

PS Can someone explain to me how I can embed a video? It doesn't seem to work...

MrsCB Edit: I made you a tag :) Thank you ;)
