Anyone else going to see Cinderella? And what is your opinion of remakes anyway? Which ones have worked for you and which havent? 

"It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die. That is true, it's called Life."

Requiescat in pace, Sir Terry (1948-2015).

Anybody else having problems coming to terms with the fact that Terry Pratchett has died? I admit, I cried - and I was still at work when I heard about it.

Please, share your favourite quotes, your favourite characters, your favourite books...

I read Truckers / Diggers / Wings (aka Bromeliad trilogy) abt 25 years ago, and I was sold. I first fell in love with how he uses language; satire, characters, stories, ethics, intertextuality... came later.

"and Arnold Bros (est. 1905) put up signs saying "Dogs and Pushchairs must be carried on the escalators"." And Arnold Bros (est. 1905) waxed wroth, for some people used the escalators carrying neither dog, nor pushchair. "Surely," said the nomes, "humans are stupid, and understand nothing about the world." 

Tell me about your tv addictions and what you are looking forward to the most about the new Avengers movie 

Hi Campers, we have writers JMolly (Jess Molly Brown) and Lissa Bryan in this week's spotlight. I invited Lissa to introduce her new upcoming book release and to welcome JMolly. They are both amazing authors that have successfully transitioned over to publishing their own OF and will be sharing writing tips and their professional experiences. They also shared their own ADITL.

Come by and meet these wonderful ladies. :)

Hello, campers!  Today we are going to talk about our favorite passages.

No, not those kind of passages!

I'm talking about book passages--your favorite lines or paragraphs that you've read over and over and over again in your book so much so that the book automatically falls open to that page.

(Okay, that's for those of us who still buy actual books.)

Come inside this CF and share your favorite lines that you've read repeatedly in original fic or FF.

You know those ones--those groups of words that give you tingles every time, or suddenly gave you an epiphany.  Or maybe it's the characters' epiphany, but it's those lovely words that remind you why you love reading, or inspire you to create something yourself.

Alternatively, if you're a fic writer, feel free to share a paragraph of your work that you're proud of.  Pimp yourself.  Your fellow campers (like me) love finding those hidden gems.  :D

We here at ADF are a friendly, helpful bunch!

If you have a request for a type of story or a book,
this is your spot.

If you are unsure about something that has to do with ADF,
ask here.

If you have amnesia about a fic,
this is the place to ask about it!

If you are unsure about something that DOES NOT have to do with ADF,
ask here as well!

Do You Write Fan Fiction?
 Sneak us a little peek at an upcoming chapter or story! It can be an excerpt, pictease, music clip, a new banner, or even a poem. Please include a LINK to your story so we can find it after you tantalize us!

Sorry for the delay!

Diving Deep for Fan Fic Treasures

Found a few gems this week,
Don't forget to vote for your favorite Fic Dive for February.
Poll closes on Sunday.

The Cullen Dilemma by Jaynor
Two brothers, one laid back and friendly, the other uptight and a bit pompous. One girl, caught in the middle. Bella buys her first home, unaware of the family feud between her two neighbours, brothers, Edward Masen-Cullen and Jasper Whitlock. In fact, she doesn't realise they're in any way related! Both befriend Bella, leaving her with a dilemma - a Cullen dilemma.

Cute start!  Bella is excited to be buying her first home.  She's caught in the middle of these two polar opposite brothers.  

White Collar Boxing by RosieRathbone
Retired boxer-turned CEO, Edward Cullen, is about to face his biggest challenge yet when he is landed with his teenage daughter for the summer. With the help of his feisty PA, Bella, maybe they can find something to bond over? AH OOC.

We start with a rather disassociated Dad, who turns in to a "Don't Mess With My Kid or You're Going Down" Dad.  Fun ballsy Bella in this one.

The Trouble by Twilightholic-Tanya
The trouble with boys like Edward Cullen is I can already see how it will end. But the thrill of driving down this road with him is almost worth the crash.

Oh Jeez.  This Edward makes me feel rage.  

FLASH BACK FIC DIVE:

Barefoot in Texas by planetblue
I watch her jumping, prancing, her hands empty but taking pictures. Her feet bare on the hot Texas earth. Everything in my life that was planned to a T just whirled away in a ruffled skirt.

Antiques Roadshow by aerobee82
I took an antique in for appraisal, only to find a much rarer treasure. I met Bella Swan on Antiques Roadshow, and PBS would never want for funds again. Canon couples Vamps

All the President's Men by Shahula
He's the most powerful man in the world, with nothing beyond his reach or influence. But is it enough to bring her back? Only time will tell. Presidentward. AH, Rated M
 

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on these.  Please keep in mind, that all fics aren't for everyone. If you don't love a fic, that's fine, but please try to be respectful of other peoples' opinions.  Please don't discourage others from reading fics because you don't care for them.  I certainly can appreciate when people express that a fic is not really their cup of tea, or that they disagree/agree with a character's behavior, lifestyle, etc.  It makes for good discussion.  But, please refrain from things like "This is the worst story ever.... or I hate Edward because..."  I'd like for everyone to form thier own opinions after reading.  Thanks everyone!

Good morning, campers! Come talk books over here.
