alerts aren't working, but Dusty updated!

From Entertainment Weekly - April 6, 2012 Since Fifty Shades began as a Twilight fan fiction you may wonder what Kristen Stewart has to say. “It’s so funny - I heard about it yesterday,” she says. “Rob [Pattinson] and Wyck [Godfrey], our producer, were talking about it! I’ve heard it’s quite sexy - very titilating.” Will she read it?, “Hell, yeah!”

OMG WHAT DO YOU ALL THINK OF THIS?!

Sorry for starting this CF, but For some reason I can't login to ADF from my laptop anymore. Riight now I'm using IPad and I don't like it. At all. Anyone has an advice?

OK--I don't feel that old until technology rears it's head and makes me feel completely stupid. Can somebody tell me how to do this:

How do you post a picture or a screen shot into the campfires? I want to start posting my story soon (it's fully written and over half beta'd) and Naya made me some awesome banners for it. I tried to put a campfire in the Monday list of stories we're working on, but couldn't paste the banner in. I copied the banner from the email Naya sent me, opened a new campfire, and wanted to paste it in, but the paste function was grayed out. I clicked on the button for inserting an image, but it asked for a URL. (Argh--where's the attach button like in email?)  Last week, I tried to paste a YouTube video in. I used the embed media button and all that showed up was the link, not the screen shot. (Double Argh!) 

If someone could help an apparently ancient (40-something) person who actually learned paste-up when it involved Exacto knives and tape how to paste a pictue into a campfire, she would be very grateful. I don't want to have to ask my 11 year old! That would be way too lame!

Thank you!

Jen

If I can make the dang link work, you can go give my beta Besotted some love by reading her lovely story about deaf Bella and the biggest sweetheart of an Edward I've ever seen. I just wanna hug him!

Bella Swan lives in a continuum between sound and silence, a world apart from what Edward Cullen knows. When their lives collide and their attraction can't be denied, can they overlook their differences and let love define them?

Mega Millions jackpot rises to record $500 million

The next drawing is this Friday, and any winner would be able to take that amount over time or an immediate cash payout of $359 million (pre-tax).

So, Campers, I'm sure there are many of you who will be buying a ticket (or ticketS) right along with me for Friday's drawing. If you got lucky enough to beat the odds (1 in 176,000,000) and win, tell me three things you would do with the money.

It doesn't have to be your top three choices. Just three things you would do. I don't care if you want to buy everything your heart desires, donate it all to charity, squander it, invest it, or buy the movie and t.v. rights to a certain 'novel' in order to ensure it never gets made....no judgment here- I just want to know what you would do with some of it.

Come inside and tell me

Product Description
A journey into the hidden world of fan fiction, where books originally written for a teenage audience by writers such as J.K. Rowling and Stephenie Meyer are given a pornographic twist.  A Million Shades of Green tells the story of how a novel-length piece of BDSM (Bondage, Domination, Sadism, Masochism) porn fan fiction called Master of the Universe (featuring Twilight characters Edward Cullen and Bella Swan) was secretly transformed into the #1 New York Times Bestseller, Fifty Shades of Grey.

Biography
An Ivy League and Oxford University graduate, Sean Black writes the Ryan Lock thriller series for British publisher Bantam/Transworld. The first two books in the series hit the Official Nielsen/Bookscan UK Top 50 Bestseller Chart, and the third title, Gridlock, will be released in paperback in July with the fourth book in the series, The Devil's Bounty, due for hardcover release on August 2nd. The series has also been translated into Dutch and German.

There have been a lot of amnesia campfires this week so I figure this weekly help desk is just in time!

As always, the weekly help desk is your place to ask questions:

Did you forget the name of a fanfic?

Do you have a request for a special kind of fanfic?

Do you want to know what happened to an author or a story?

Do you have a question about ADF and how it works?

In addition to this, ask about ANYTHING YOU WANT! Ask about manscaping! Ask about fireballs! Ask about bad fic* being on the cover of EW! OMG, don't 

THIS IS YOUR CAMPFIRE FOR ANSWERS!

And thanks to everyone who asked and answered about socks last week! I totally figured that one out :)

Question:

I've only been writing on FF for about 2 months.... I just got a PM from someone claiming to be a with a publishing company who is interested in any original writings I may have lying around... They are not asking for money up front.

For those of you who have been authors in the Fandom for awhile, is this:

a). spam

b). spam, that could also possibly be material theft, etc.

c). a semi-legit offer that I should pursue warily because EVERYONE who publishes on FF gets one, and it usually amounts to nothing

d). the answer to all of my hopes and dreams

I don't recognize the writer/member approaching me, and as far as I can tell, they *just* started following me, but at the same time, a compliment is a compliment, you know?

Can someone provide some advice?

My rec is: Stolen Dreams by shasta53. Updated regularly, and a really interesting tale.

Sorry we're a day behind!!!!

But the Kitchen is open and we want to know what you're cookin'!

What we’re cookin’...

• Plot Bunnies! Ever have a plot bunny that needed some spice? Who said anything about too many cooks? The more the merrier, here! Bring your undercooked plots or ideas, and help others hash out their stories, too.

• Your Characters! Feel like your characters are just skin and bones? Come chat with your friends and see if they can help you create the perfect recipe for meaty greatness.

• Basically anything related to your fic that you need help with!

Allergies...

• We’re allergic to negativity! Constructive criticism and suggestions are welcome, but please try to stay positive and productive!

• And pilfering, too! There will be plenty of story ideas being discussed, so please stay respectful to your fellow authors by not using another's idea as your own - unless given explicit permission by the author first and then giving due credit, of course. No eating off someone else’s plate unless they say you can!

Food Bank...

• Donations! Have some untouched plot ingredients that have been sitting in your cabinet for far too long? Come drop them off at our Food Bank and help another hungry author!

• Pick up! Need some ingredients for your writing? See what ideas have been left for a good home.

You’ve given us an excuse to use the kitchen for the first time.

So, come on in and share your ideas! Maybe someone will have that perfect plot point that pushes your story from good to great, and hopefully you’ll be able to do the same for a fellow author!

no sparkles because lol WTVOC IS POSTING ABOUT FIFTY SHADES OF GREY

but...

did you ever think you'd see the day

when twilight fanfiction made the cover of a major magazine? 

:/

EW has the first Stateside interview with press-shy author E L James (that’s a nom de plume, by the way), as well as the full story behind how the sexy novel went from unpolished Twilight-inspired fan fiction to a full-on phenomenon.

EW, you forgot continuity at the end of that sentence- to an unpolished, full-on phenomenon. tsk tsk tsk

sauce 

also- lol my new tag

Click picture to see the Wonderwall article by Kat Giantis.  I'll also past a copy in a comment.

This report kind of goes with WolvesandVamps campfire from yesterday.

24 hours didn't passed yet since the last campfire that talks about MoTU or FSoG and here I am .. making another UGH!

‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ Movie Deal
 

What are your thoughts on Fifty Shades of Grey and the movie deal?

Details inside .

I was finding a story 'Love comes after wedding' by Techie.freq, which was pulled down. I decided to ask the writer and she was nice enough to send me the copy. Her answer about pulling down it made me sad. I mean some people are really that cruel that they tell on the face of the writer that they'll still her plot and she can't do anything, coz she doesnt own anything? Really?  I mean I know that she is not an expert author even she says it by herself. But even then it doesnt give you a right to steal her story. 

So have you ever come across anything like this in the fandom?

Hello Campers!

(rangers, I hope this is ok to post)

I'm going to be starting a new fic and I'm in need of some good music - bluegrass, specifically. My Bella's gonna be a banjo player! But then I realized, I don't have a heck of a lot of bluegrass music to go off of. Anyone have any favorites or know of any fics like this?  

(Workng on finding the rec - i know i've read one, just gatta find it!)
