WOW.

WHATTA COUPLA WEEKS, RIGHT?

and i dont wanna re-hash a single piece of it in this cf.

adf playbook:

no personal attacks, even if yer sure the other person is an idiot.

no filthy gutter dirt talk on the front page, even if yer mama didn't raise you better, we like to pretend this site retains a modicum of class. stop laughing.

no nudes, including but not limited to t&a

feed a tree

discuss things here

ask a not-so-in-the-know-mod (me) anything here

omg, did you hear this? jeeeez.

leave more if you want.

My second-hand-embarassment-meter is almost full up from Rob's offhand comments this week.  I almost have to watch with the sound down now.

1) Here he is on Jimmy Fallon.  If ONLY Rob had worn a white t-shirt instead!  Video in the comments if you can bear it.

2) I'm not so fond of Kristen these days, so I haven't watched her videos BUT I love both her dresses here.

Simple, classic, showing off her great legs.  First one has a leather band across the bust.   Second has a flippy skirt, darlin'.  OTR Screening and Jimmy Fallon respectively.

3) Someone finally came straight out and asked if they were back together.  Interviewer from the Today Show, asking them each separately.  They both shut her down, Rob's answer verging on rude.  I liked it.

The Ellen show should be entertaining today... though I saw a bit of a discussion about Rob forgetting to zip up his pants... oh dear...  

Both K and R have now shown pics of Bear on television shows as their dog.  So is this a game of 'I have the right to tell you, but you don't have the right to ask me'?  I don't find that hypocritical, actually.

Feel free to comment or post other Promo stuff that interests you.

I was on Twitter and there were tweets talking about a massive pulling of titles from Kindle availability.

THE TWILIGHT SERIES

IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR KINDLE!

Apparently that's just one example

Justin Cronin's The Passage and The Twelve are pulled too.

Does anyone have any additional information?

ETA: Apparently it was a temporary glitch. Twilight and the other missing titles are back!

Just curious, do you think the betas of fics that are published get a little percentage of the profits?  Or a token gift card?  Or can they at least add it to their resumes that they helped edit a published book?

This is the campfire of Self Promotion:

Tell us about what you or a friend write. If you beta something fantastic, let us know. If you are hosting a contest, tell us about it.

Don't be shy! Give us a link. Give us a sample. Show us your banner.

We want to read what you write!

I'M POSTING THIS A LITTLE EARLY AGAIN TONIGHT.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TONIGHT?

THE TITLE OF THE EPISODE PRETTY MUCH SUMS IT UP, I THINK.

SO LET'S REPHRASE THAT.... WHO WILL DIE TONIGHT?? lol

COME ON IN AT 8 PM EST AND FREAK OUT WITH YOUR FELLOW CAMPERS! 

REMEMBER, IF YOU CAN'T WATCH THE SHOW AT 8 PM EST, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS!!

The first trailer for Warm Bodies is out!

and it's funny:

Wasn't sure if anyone saw this yet.  Well, with The Sub/Dom/Training and now The Office, I wonder which "big" fic is next ?

(I don't know how to link the article any way but the above, feel free to fix, rangers)

Thoughts?

Oh yeah, thought it was worth mentioning this is Simon and Schuster...no punk firm, legit business here.

How about making up some fun

-- preferably naughty --

Twi / Fandom poetry?

Some ideas:

LIMERICKS have an AABBA rhyme structure, like this:

The limerick packs laughs anatomical
In space that is quite economical.
But the good ones I've seen
So seldom are clean
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.

HAIKU doesn't have to rhyme at all but has three lines of 5 - 7- 5 syllables:

BITE ME

A sexy haiku

About my favorite vamp

Would be very nice

And there's always FREE VERSE ... 

Let's have fun and make each other laugh.

Illustrate your rhymes with pics ... 

Get creative!!!

Clearly I Suck...

Once a week (when I don't suck) we open up the HELP DESK so people can ask questions, make requests and get advice.

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

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 requests, questions or amnesia about any other areas in your life?

This is your campfire. Ask away! Many people like to answer!

You can ask about anything here, not just questions about fanfic. ALL questions are fair game!

WELCOME TO HELP DESK WEDNESDAY!

(Maybe I need to ask advice on how to suck less)

The BD2 soundtrack is free to listen to on Pandora all week.

Not sure how I feel about it yet.

Josh's question is worthy of its own campfire.

Elizabeth Reaser's lack of hesitation is priceless.

My daughter and I are getting just a tad (<<<<<----- A TAD? Whatever!!) excited for the final movie coming out next week... So, I have to ask, what would YOU recommend we do to get "in the spirit" so to speak?

Should we read each book, then watch each movie?

Read a book, then watch the movie... read the next book, etc...?

Watch the movies then read?

How are you preparing for the movie event?

... or should I go a different route and read, watch, or do something completely different??

This is the Italian edition of Vogue, but the texts are mostly in English.

The photos - one weirder than the other - are under this link. The photographer is Cronenberg's daughter. I am going to buy the issue, though. And you?

HAPPY VOTING DAY!! DON'T FORGET, MY FELLOW AMERICANS, TO GO DO YOUR THING TODAY!!

Hair clean and swoopy.  Jaw on show.  Just enough dorkiness to be endearing but not embarassing.  Reasonable answers to questions.
