I have been privately told that two of my stories: “The Parachutist” and “Eros and Psyche” have been nominated for the Faithful Shipper Awards. Very excited I too nominated somebody else ‘story for it. Only, the site looks totally dead, there is not a list of nominees, albeit nominations closed on March 24th and the voting should happen between the 8th and the 18th of April. In this way nobody can look at the stories. This is very disconcerting. I wonder what is happening there. Does anybody know?

Hey everyone!

So instead of making two campfires and taking up precious space, I have a two part campfire.

1) I'm reading the first book in the Hunger Games series, and I'm hooked! I love this book so hard right now, it's def going to be on my favorites list for sure! Does anyone else love it as hard as me? I can't wait to see what happens in the next two! And I'm excited b/c I hear there is a movie in the works?

2). I've been hearing this Katy Perry song on the radio. At first I didn't like it, but it's grown on me and now it's stuck in my head. It reminds me of 'The Host' by S.M. Seriously, ignore the Kanye parts and it would be a great soundtrack to a Host trailer. I love that book more than Twilight, I swear. Here's the video:

I hadn't seen this posted anywhere so I thought I would let y'all know. They are presenting the award for Female Artist of the year. It is airing right now on CBS and their category should be up soon.

Edward send letters to Bella from prison,Emmet is the only tht go to see him

Ring any bell?

Is anyone else having trouble uploading new chapters with the document manager. Every time I hit submit document nothing happens. Is it just me?

pla·gia·rism  [pley-juh-riz-uhm] –noun:  the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.

So, being an author of any kind, you are vulnerable to being a victim of plagiarism. I've recently come across people discussing how this happens in the ff world more often than any other place. I'm not even a "popular" author and am aware of THREE acts of plagiarism using my work. I can't imagine what the more well known authors deal with.

Come inside to discuss the following:

1. Someone downloaded my fic and reposted on another site without my knowledge. Though it did state that it was written by me, I had no idea that it was there. Is this plagiarism? Just rude? Or should I be flattered?

2. Another person copied my story Bounty, did not even bother to change the name, but did change the names of the characters and reposted it as a Glee ff. I was informed by a reader who recognized the story and the pseudo author eventually took it down. Should these people be banned from ff.net? Is that even possible?

3. Some argue that ff is BARELY an original form of art, since we are using someone else's characters and ideas, and therefore is its own form of plagiarism and could not be plagiarized itself.

So, tonight (well, for me it was tonight, it was actually this afternoon PST) Twi Network hosted the Iron Pen Challenge, Japan Edition.

I decided to participate and am excited to find out the results in two weeks.

Go here to read the entries, and vote here.

It's for a good cause, people!

PS normally I would try to be more eloquent, but it's almost midnight and I'm tired.

PPS After the winner is announced, I'll post my entry to my FFn for those interested.

I don't want to start WWIII here or anything.  I'm just trying to find out if there is a way to copy a chapter or a fic from a story that is posted here on ADF.  I'm going on vacation this week and just want to download some pdf files to my ipad to read in the car.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

 

 

or just tell me something...anything, about YOU.

PICTURES ONLY!

Oh I am fretting! Someone is going to die in the Vampire Diaries finale.

Rob and Tai give good bitchface during the WFE press junket.

So I came across this newly released book series (it came out on tuesday), and its really good! So far only book one of five is out. It is a supernatural/young adult series. Check it out :)

Summary:

In 1692, when witch trials gripped the community of Salem, Massachusetts, twenty-six children were accused as witches, exiled, and left for dead. Fourteen of them survived. The Survivors is the first installment of the tantalizing tales of the fourteen ill-fated Survivors and their descendants, who have been content in hiding for over three centuries. Isolated on a Montana mountainside, only Sadie, the rogue daughter, dares to abandon the family’s sacred hiding place. But no matter how far Sadie runs, something always pulls her back.

On a muggy summer night in Tennessee, she witnesses a shocking scene that will change her life forever. It is the first in a sequence of events that will drag her from the human world she’s sought to belong to for over a century and send her back to her Puritanical family and into an uncertain future filled with cunning witches, mysterious nosferatu shape-shifters, dangerous eretica and vieczy vampires, millennia-old mythology, and the search for her own mortality. After all… HOW DO YOU KILL A SURVIVOR? The Survivors will steal your heart and invade your mind. Fall into the pages of Sadie’s life, a world so frighteningly similar to your own, you’ll find yourself wanting to go to the Montana mountains to find the Survivors for yourself. And it is only the beginning.

So i checked my email this morning and saw that i had an email from Sylvain Reynard.

Sylvain Reynard= Sebastian Robichaud, right? I believe the person changed their penname.

(for those who don't remember, Sebastian Robichaud wrote The University of Edward Masen.

so i noticed a funny thing: the senders address said "Sylvain Reynard <ninapolitan @ gmail . com"

....um, is Sylvain Reynard/Sebastian Robichaud/UoEM's author ninapolitan?

i mean no harm, no disrespect to anyone, and i seriously hope i didn't blow up some secret. not here to cause drama at all about UoEM or its author. i'm just wondering if everyone already knew this and i'm late to the party. 

(please forgive any spelling errors, i'm awake quite early for a sunday morning)

face off against Pam?

i sure wouldn't...but apparently Aunt Petunia has the balls....

So- i'm drinking, please forgive the spelling errors... It came via my Twitter feed that another author is pulling her FANTASTICALLY written FF due to people not agreeing with her feelings about another FF writer. Seriously?! I have been a part of the Twilight fandom for less time than others, I am sure, but there is so much more hatred to others here than you would expect. I have seen very good writers receive HORRIBLE reviews because someone disagreed with their vision of the story. We have all bonded because of the same thing, the Twilight Saga books. Why can't we agree to disagree at times without making it uncomfortable? This particular author gave her thoughts of another authors story (and truth be told, I agree with her 100%, I thought the story was horrible and I can't understand why people thought it was so good..I digress) We as the human race will not always agree with what others say. I disagree with my hubbby almosy daily, but I don't leave him and I don't leave him horrible notes because we don't agree on something. I can only hope that she leaves her other story up as it is so well written, but the good news is: She has a blog-n please keep them there! J *edit: while I won't reveal the author, I can tell you her stories are on the political AH side and she will leave then on her blog, but only for a little while *

You guys, I need help.

I have this friend, who has this birthday coming up. And he's a total nerd. This coming from the girl that read Star Trek fanfic, so you get the idea.

I wanna make him a cake, but I have the uncanny ability to, um, burn water.

Here's my problem: I want to make a covering for the cake with the shapes of space invaders. Sort of like this:

Only closer somewhat to this:

How the hell do I make that cake covering? It's not frosting, is it? Anybody has the slightest idea?

The icing in this cake is I won't even be able to eat it. My teeth are still wired shut. But oh well. It'll make a nerd's day, so there's that.

PICK UP LINES!!!

Yes, folks. You read correctly. Pick up lines. Gimme the worst, best, funniest you got.

I want to cry, cringe, and chortle uncontrollably with laughter. COME ON: PARTICIPATE

*thank you ranger J and Co for allowing me to post this =)
