Hi  Fellow Campers,

im hoping someone can help me out.  A while back, I read a great story on fanfic.net.  Mostly canon, but Tanya had the power of mind control and she was using it to take Edward away from Bella.  I didn't bookmark it and now I can't find it again.  Can anyone help?

Technically.   Oh wait.  IT IS NOW!  Starz just released an alternate ending for the Outlander trailer.  Can't. Breathe.

Until I figure out how to embed, or find another copy of the vid, click here to view. 

Sam Heughan has a starring role in a film called Emulsion.  There was apparently a screening in Inverness Scotland last night.  Many new Heughan fans attended.  Some photos inside. 

I am a bad fan.  I know nothing about this movie.  But here's what I know about Sam from looking at the photos inside.

1) He really is tall and big.  In one photo, he looks a little like he's herding baby ducks.

2) He apparently sweats a lot when he's surrounded by women who want to do bad things to him and it does unfortunate things to his hair.

3) I don't really care about #2.

4) He is awesome. 

That is all.  Those are my thoughts.  Yours?

(I swear, I will eventually stop and/or think of some other idea for a CF.  Classes start up 3 nights a week next week, so that will undoubtedly slow me down.  Right?).

I admittedly swooned starting around :34.  GAHHH!

How well is Starz engaging the fans?  They put THE FANS in the promo!  Nice move Starz, don't even bother to be subtle.  At this point, I'll buy Starz Outlander toilet paper if you decide to sell it.

Are you aware of any other productions that have wooed the fans as successfully as Starz is doing with this show?  

For those of you who can't get on the Outlander band wagon (yet ... just wait for it!), here's a wonderful, thought-provoking presentation by Brene Brown.  Worth every second.

ETA: (Actually, even if you do like Outlander, you should see this video.  Her message is that good, and she's funny.)

And another huge thank you to Cappie!   My first use of the tag!! :-D

Welcome to the Feed Your E-Reader

weekly campfire! What awesome deals did you find this week?

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?

Also, if you could let me know if there is continued interest in this CF, that would be fab. Thanks.

Happy Friday Campers!

My 8 year old son is participating in the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's annual Math-a-thon. If you are unfamiliar with St. Jude, as the video below explains, it is a pediatric hospital specializing in cancer and other debilitating diseases.  St. Jude treats patients regardless of their ability to pay for their treatment. 

My son, Zane, has decided that if he can raise $500 for the Math-a-thon, he will shave his head in honor of the kids at St. Jude. (So proud of this kid!) He's almost to his goal, but every little bit helps.  If you could spare a couple of bucks to help raise funds for this wonderful organization, Zane and I would greatly appreciate it!

 THANK YOU ALL!

I just read this one-shot, and now I can't find it. Edward wants to marry Bella, but she says no. So, he witholds sex until she agrees. He loves baseball.

(Also, does Sam have a crick in his neck, or is that just incredible posture?  Maybe he slept on his pillow funny in a draft?  Poor baby.  I would rub that and rub that and ....  Never mind).  

Interactive  ... interactive.  How to make this that?  I know, tell me / show me / share with me your own cubicle story.  I used to sit next to a woman that ate a series of boiled eggs throughout the day.  Our entire row smelled like warm, old, icky eggshells.  And she also farted a lot, no lie (wonder what that will do to the ads?).

Also, I wonder - if I promised not to say fart on the front page again and sent wtvoc some cookies, could we get a Sam Heughan tag?   * I have added the tag as requested. Feel free to ship the cookies my way.                                          Love, Cappie

Thanks Cappie!  You are the best! (off to buy chocolate chips)

Dear Campers,

Today we will share our latest

In case you can't read that tree, we are showing pictures of our latest (or ongoing) Obsessions.

Is Twilight still your thing?  Or just the Twi-fandom in general?  Still would rather read about various incarnations of Bella and Edward than anything else?

Have you taken up a new hobby?  Like to collect snowglobes?  Must have a pair from the latest collection of Jimmy Choo?

Show us what occupies your downtime. 

Thank you to the lovely wtvoc for the suggestion.  Please feel free to join in on the CF even if you don't have pictures to show. 

(The obsession tree pic isn't mine.  I just thought the tree was fitting for our forest.  I was going to post a pic of one of the obsession perfume ads but couldn't find one I liked.)

For next week:  Let's talk about/take pictures of our favorite accessories. 

Ben Affleck is reportingly backing out/freaking out over his role in the Batman/Superman movie. Supposedly he's mad that they delayed it for 10 months, as he should be.

Thoughts are: Super movies in general - do we get the timing right?

Will Ben Affleck stay?

Is Henry Cavill still the guy who's body you wanna lick the most?

What are you reading?

Diving Deep for Fan Fic Treasures

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

Thank you all for your wonderful support!

Remember to Read, Review and Recommend!
(and tell them you found them here on ADF!)

Spin & Sway by pattyrose
Sometimes, no matter how strong you are, life deals you blows that are too heavy to carry on your own. Sometimes, no matter how fragile you feel, you're the only one who can help bear the load of another. Sometimes when strong and fragile collide, the world spins and sways.

This one is going to be a heart wrencher.  After Alice and Jasper are killed by a drunk driver, alcoholic Edward gets custody of their daughter Melody. Bella becomes Melody's dance instructor.

Number One Crush by FeathersandBittenPillows
To Bella, it was a simple no-strings-attached, one nightstand to a stranger she felt deeply attracted to. But little does she know, to Chicago police officer Edward, it meant so much more. How far is Edward willing to go to make her his? Darkward. Lemons

I am looking forward to seeing how this goes.  Bella is getting some creeper vibes from Edward after a one-night stand.  Takes me back to my college days when our VHS tape of "FEAR" ran in a continual loop in our apartment.  Hope no dog head are cut off in this one!

Heir Apparent by Gnomea
noun. An heir apparent is a person who is first in line of succession and cannot be displaced from inheriting, except by a change in the rules of succession. E/B. OOC.

After his brother's untimely death, Edward is bumped up to next in line to be King. He has to fight to get Bella back into his life after letting her down in the past.  Really liking this one.

This Christmas Wish by MidnightLove87
Snow is falling and days are slipping by like sand through your hand. Edward finally takes time to stop and savor life, what happens to his perfectly laid out life when his son's Christmas wish sends him through a loop.

This one is a sweet romance.  I love Alice in this one.  She's provided a few LOL moments.

FLASH BACK FIC DIVES:

Labels by samekraemer
Everyone has labels attached to them that they acquire over a lifetime…mother, daughter, wife, lover, friend, co-worker. I happen to have all of those labels attached to me, plus one in particular that I'm not happy about…widow. I have a daughter who never met her father, and parents who try to help me out but drive me crazy, along with a father-in-law who I take care of in the absence of his son. Along with the label of "widow" came another label that I'm not happy about and it's one I assigned to myself…crazy. The reason I'm crazy is because every night in my dreams, I talk to my dead husband as if he was still alive. I was perfectly content to live with those labels until someone showed up in my life that caused me to add another label to my seemingly never ending list…screwed.—Bella Black

I love all of this gals stories.

When the Dust Settles by She is Divine
Where do you go and what do you do when war takes away everything that matters to you? Army Sergeant Edward Cullen has to find out and learns new, important lessons about family, friendship, and love along the way. AH.

Some non-canon roles in this one and some very OOC folks.  My favorite being "Auntie James."

Caged by Savage7289
This is not made for TV. This is the raw, brutal underground of no-holds-barred combat. Inside the cage there is nothing but me and the pain I inflict on those who dare enter. In the cage, I never had to worry about anyone but myself. When she started standing outside of it, everything changed. I was no longer fighting for the money or the glory – I had to fight for her.

Love Shay's down-n-dirty, gritty characters.

Happy Reading!
