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

Every Monday, I'm going to dedicate a CF to the Hot Guy of the Week.The catch? The CF can ONLY be about the current nominated guy. 

We all have different tastes in men, so please don't yuck anyone's yum.If you have a man you'd like to see crowned for the week, PM or hit me up on twitter (@ffcherry) with his name

An update from Scarlettplay on Harkham's Case:

I'm going to be publishing this story in about a month, so I'm leaving this story up for 3 more weeks and then it'll be taken down. Feel free to convert it into whatever format you want for yourself and share it with anyone you want. After it's down, I'm happy to send this Fan Fic version for free to anyone who emails and asks for it as a pdf, epub or mobi, if they didn't get a chance to make their own copy while it was still up.

Also, there might be some discrepancies and differences in this chapter I just posted, but that's on purpose. It's because of the changes that will take place for the published version.

I never planned to publish this story when I created it, but it's become one of my most unique stories I've ever written, and right now, I need as much help as possible with income. My divorce after a 20 year marriage will be finalized next month, and after being a stay-at-home mom for 16 years, I'm now going to finally go to college and will be working part time. I won't have a lot of extra time to write, so things will be slowing down on that front. I keep thinking I can figure out a way to write some of the new stories I have in my head that I want to publish, but my life is so crazy and up in the air right now, I just can't seem to pull it together. Add on top of that, my new explorations in the world of BDSM, and that takes up even more of my extra time, not to mention I have kids I'm raising as a single mom as well.

I'll be pulling Harkham's Corner, the unfinished sequel to this story, about 2 weeks following after Harkham's Case release, because I'll be finishing writing that story and publishing it too. There will be some differences in both stories. More lemons, more language, and a lot more questions answered and missing holes filled in.

It was a very hard decision to make. I don't like pulling my stories down, but when I've had to spend an entire week, two times this month, with less than $50 to my name to feed my family, it kind of changes my perspective on things while I try to support my family and while I prepare to start school and look for part time work. My family comes first, and I need to do whatever I can to make sure they have the things they need. I appreciate all the great reviews so many of you left for this story, and for encouraging me to do what I love so much—write!

Thank you all so much for joining me on this unique Edward's journey! It's been so much fun!

Harkham's Case by Scarlettplay

"If it's not Asperger's, then what is it?" Bella asked.
Alice paused before answering, "We don't know what he has. He was the first documented case. For now, he's called Harkham's Case number one."
Bella smiled as a tear leaked out. "Okay."
But nothing was. This changed everything. Rated M for adult content even though it starts out in high school.

For some reason, I found myself contemplating Travis Birkenstock's The Consequence of Miracles last night.  Emotionally, I don't have the wherewithal to reread the entire story right now, but I did take a peek at certain sections that I'd been wondering about.  Then I became curious about something ... 

Was Alice even in Consequences?  I don't recall her being in the story at all.  Was she hovering on the outskirts as Jasper's girlfriend?  Often she is Edward's shopping-obsessed little sister, but she wasn't that person in this story.  I don't recall seeing her at all.  Did I imagine that, or was she absent?  And if she was absent, why?  Did she just not work for this story, or does Travis have a secret Alice grudge? 

Are there any Twilight characters you just don't like and would write out of the story if you could (besides the obvious ones, like Tanya, Rosalie or Jane).  What do you not like about them and/or how would you have changed them if you were the author?  How do you think it would have improved the story if they didn't exist?

Also, just because I can ...

I need help. I've been trying to remember the name of a fanfiction I read several years ago. In it, Bella had schizoeffective disorder, stops taking her meds and near the end at prom she smells Edward on Alice and freaks out. (It was her hallcinating Edward's smell on Alice anyway) That's all I really remember

Please help!

And because Jennyfly said this would help...a kitten for your time

Detruit by Somah

"It's all real. They did this, but I'm still here, always, Bella. Find me." Those cryptic words, whispered in a last breath, continue to haunt Bella Swan five years after the supposed death of her love, Edward Masen. AH-AU.

Welcome to the

Feed Your E-Reader

weekly campfire

Please post all the fabulous deals you've found this week. And if you pick up a book from a comment inside, please let your fellow campers know you did.

This CF is open to all genres and all book deals.

And don't forget to feed the trees, yeah?

Today I wanna discuss comics in the newspaper. Peanuts, The Far Side, Zits, Calvin and Hobbes, etc etc etc.

Also, do you like political cartoons? Have you a favorite of those?

Talk to me!

Or so says President Snow in the first Mockingjay teaser trailer. 

Still excited about this? Or jaded about the over-saturation of franchises in the movie marketplace? Too JAMMF-obsessed at the moment to care much (that would describe me)? 

Throwback Thursday!

2014 Fic Dive of the Year

It's time!  I am probably more excited about this than I should be!

Voting will be open until Wednesday, July 9th, 2014 at 4pm EDT.

The top vote getters will be revealed on July 10, 2014.

• Vote for as many stories as you want
• You can only vote one time, so make sure you tick all your faves (possibly more from additional devices)
• Before you vote,  please take some time to review past Fic Dives.   As I was reviewing my list there were so many I had forgotten about.  I hate to see older stories get passed over.  I put dates next to each as a reminder of when they posted.

Past Fic Dives can be found by going to "Search" on the Home Page.  Click "List All Tags."  Scroll down to Fic Diving and click.  This will bring up all of the Fic Dives by date.

VOTE HERE!

I can't Thank everyone enough for the support for this Campfire.  I enjoy doing it and the feedback I get from everyone is so appreciated.  There are a few folks that I hear from every week and I especially look forward to reading your comments.  Also, Thank You to the Rangers for keeping the Forest up and running!

As you go back and review, let's discuss which stories are your faves, which ones you forgot all about, which you would love to see and update from, and which just totally fizzled out. 

Lastly, I hope this stupid poll works.  It was a complete jerk to put together.  :)

ETA: If you're looking for dontrun's Between Then and Now, I accidentally omitted it and added it to the bottom of the voting list.  Sorry. :(
