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.

So come on in and see who won the crown this week!

Do you write fan fiction?

Give us a little peek!

Post excerpts or a pictease or music from your upcoming chapters here!

~ Don't forget to include a link to your story! ~

...announced via Twitter that she was publishing The Submissive, The Dominant, and an as yet unknown third novel. The first will be released mid November.

I think we could all see the writing on the wall, but there is one thing that I find particularly distasteful. She'll be publishing them under the name Tara Sue Me, a move that seems calculated to ensure that old fans know that these are her books and purchase them. The targetting of the Fanfic crowd is just so blatantly obvious that it's just sad.

It's no wonder I very rarely review stories, and only if they are AU.

What do you think about retaining both the names and the handle Tara Sue Me?

By Lissa Bryan

Summary: Set during the reign of "Bloody Mary" Tudor. Bella is captured by Edward to raise his daughter. He promises to release her one day, but will he? Court intrigues and danger around every corner. Can they, and their new-found love, survive? Rated M/OOC/AU

The epi was posted a day or so ago, so run and read this amazing story!!

 

I DO NOT want to get in a huge debate with anyone and honestly not sure how many members of ADF are American but I feel so strongly about this I just want to encourage everyone to go VOTE on Tuesday. I don't care what your views are or what your party affiliation is, I just feel so strongly about this right that we have. 

It's more than just the vote for President, it is also important for any local races in your area. 

So mostly because I am curious, what issues are most important to you? 

Remember, no being nasty, everyone has a right to their opinion. 

There are loads out there, but the ones with the three leads together show some entertaining banter and camaraderie.  You've probably seen them already but I felt they at least deserved a campfire.

On ET:

Uh, feel free to comment.  Or not.

I'm in my 40's and after being a single mom for a long time I've finally been able to go back to college. I wanted my kids to see that regardless of our circumstances, we still have choices and can do things that seem hard. It's been really scary and difficult being back in school and feeling so different from everyone there, but I'll be graduating in May and I'm really excited!

My daughter submitted a picture of me and shared a little of my story on barackobama.tumblr.com If you're so inclined, check it out and share your own proud life accomplishments. 

Rob's BD press conference.  This up-close camera is a veritable treat of Robspressions.  The best bit is watching his face change while the first journalist asks the question.

Sorry about the initial advert... wait until Rob walks in and you'll be rewarded... :D

Not showing up for you?  It is here on Robsessed:  LINK

I'll post some more press videos next -- I kept thinking someone else would do it first (Mallmouse where are you?)

Jude Law Joins Rob and Naomi Watts in 'Queen of Desert' 

He'll star opposite Naomi Watts and Robert Pattinson in the biopic of Gertrude Bell, described as the female Lawrence of Arabia.

Adding another title to its arsenal, Sierra/Affinity will represent foreign rights to Werner Herzog's historical Gertrude Bell biopic Queen of the Desert.

Judd Law is joining the cast of the film, which headlines Naomi Watts as Bell and Robert Pattinson as T.E. Lawrence, otherwise known as Lawrence of Arabia.

Bell -- like Lawrence -- was an explorer, writer, archeologist and attaché for the British Empire, who is credited with helping to catalyze the formation of the Middle East at the dawn of the 20th century. She's often been referred to as the "female" Lawrence of Arabia.

Principal photography is scheduled to begin in Morocco in March 2013.

Frankly, I can't wait for this film. Among Rob's projects this is the one I am most interested in, even more than Mission Blacklist.

And you?

Ok.....thats really just wishful thinking.

Does anyone watch Kitchen Cousins?! It's among HGTV's hot-guys-doing-demo line up.

CHECK IT OUT....them come back and write a citrusy, slashy little kitchen-ficlet. :) Or, just enjoy the pics....

Now after 2 years of reading fanfiction I realized that I have never read something without sexy, confident Edward. So please can you give me some fanfics with strong sexy Bella? I really want to finally switch.

Hey all! I hope everyone made it through Sandy ok.

As for myself, I just got power back last night. Thanks to everyone that wished me well, and a special thanks to my bff Grabadietcoke for posting my story when I couldn't, keeping track of my stats and mentions, and just overall caring and worrying about me and my family.

But now...I've been in a bubble for a week and I know I've missed a ton of good stuff! I saw some bad pic of Rob in a weird outfit? I saw a pic of some stupid halloween masks? But i've missed ALL of the BD stuff that's been going on.

Please post highlights here of what i've missed, the good, the bad, and the ugly!

Thank you!

I can't stop!! If you haven't seen this check it out!! From the same warped minds that brought us Repo! The Genetic Opera, have give us this... There are More Links inside!!!
