I actually have two questions.

My first one: So, I've been a little out of date with my Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart stalking. I've been busy for the past couple months, and I notice whenever I'm in line at the grocery store, there is a shit-house magazine with something about KStew and RPatts being together in a relationship. I am fully aware that they are rumored to be together, but are they actually, for real together? Have they gone public? Is there pictures? I am so lost with this, and it has troubled me for a long time. I don't usually go searching for links of them when I am on the computer; I only find out what I know from sites like these or shit-house magazines. So my first question: Are they actually together? How do you know?

My second question: It isn't really a question. I've actually been out of the fanfiction thing for a while- I've just recently got back into writing, but I desperately want something to read. I'm picky, I know this but that isn't an excuse. I am fully aware that there are talented girls on fanfiction or this website that write awesome fics. I go through the archive list but I get bored easily and want to sleep because it all seems the same. Is there anything orginial out there? So my second question, I would just like somebody to rec me something; something that I may be interested in. The types of fics, I enjoy: teen ones mostly, but I will read others. I like college, and maybe just out of college, I like drama and angst and maybe even a little hurt comfort. I don't like when they are old and have children, I don't like when they are married to anybody that isn't their soul mate type of thing. Also, I prefer to read Edward/Bella.

Thank you guys!

Please help a girl out!

Tonight I was out on PicTease finding photos of WIP stories (http://bit.ly/6Wr7Wm)   When I saw this and realized what day it was...

According to the counter, it's 365 days until Breaking Dawn Part 1 is released.

So where will you be one year from now?

- Anxiously waiting in line for the movie theater to open?

- Waiting for they hype to die down so you can see the movie without the screaming fans?

- At home or someplace cozy re-reading the series?

- Hosting a bash for other twi fans?

- At home like normal, but boring non twi people...

Look, I'm weak. I've never been anything else. It's not the demon in me that needs killing, Buffy. It's the man.

this episode sets up a big bad later on down the line.  pay attention, newbies!  there will be a quiz later!

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN

DO YOU MAKE FAN VIDEOS?

MY WEEKLY RECS:

"Edward & Bella - Untitled 1" by TheRaggDolliish

AND B/C THE VAMPIRE DIARIES WON'T BE BACK ON UNTIL DEC 2 (boooooooo) I'M RECCING A TVD VID TOO.

"Elena & Damon - Under the Sheets" by paradisedanifm1

HAPPY BIRTHDAY.,

ps.

sorry if i have to post this on a different campfire. the internet is too slow and my computer can't accommodate the too many comments in the first campfire. and well, this is too late. well, better late than never right?

surprise inside. :)

okay so I am needing so help finding a certain kind of fic. I am looking for fics where vamps have humans as slaves. Bella is human and the Cullens are vamps. I prefer a Bella & Edward story, but I will read others.

I read one along time ago (ofcourse I cannot remember the name) about Bella and Alice are human sisters and they are captured with their mom and sold off into slavery. Alice and Bella are bought by Jasper & Edward. It is the fic that got me wanting more stories like this.

So any recs you have & if anyone knows the name of the story listed above I would greatly appreciate it.

You guys are the best and I know you will be able to help me out.

Yep, another update and another campfire from me (no, birthday girl, Jenny isn't paying me), and they just keep getting better and better.

http://www.adifferentforest.com/Fiction/Default.aspx?Chapter=4202

Come discuss with me...this chapter...how you think it'll end...how you want it to end...anything.

I NEED TO DISCUSS!

Have just discovered an interesting site called page99test.com which describes itself as:

The ONLY place where published & unpublished writers can share their page 99s with a world of readers – and where those readers let the writer know if, based on that one page, they’d want to turn the page… or buy the book. Did it hook them? Did it grab them? Find out fast.

Thought I'd check out the Twilight books page 99s to see how they measure up - here's a taster:

TWILIGHT

"dense green forests edging the road most of the way and the wide Quillayute River snaking beneath it twice.  I was glad I had the windo seat.  We'd rolled the windows down - the Suburban was a bit claustrobic with nine people in it - and I tried to absorb as much sunlight as possible."

(and then more talk about scenery...yawn!)

NEW MOON

"I turned away from her, back to the men who were watching us with amusied, curious eyes.  "Bella, stop this right now!" My muscles locked into place, froze me where I stood.  Because it wasn't Jessica's voice that rebuked me now.  It was a furious voice, a familar voice, a beautiful voice - soft like velvet even though it was irate."

(slight danger, hearing voices, much more gripping)

ECLIPSE

"Jacob flinched back and bit his lip.  I could see that my words hurt him, but I was too mad to feel about that yet.  He dropped my wrist and folded his arms across his chest, turning from me to glare toward the ocean."

(more dialogue, more supernatural talk)

BREAKING DAWN

"be any feathers, at least.  But as I moved, an off wave of vertigo hit.  I swayed and fell back against the pillows.  "Whoa....head rush"  His arms were around me then "You slept for a long time.  Twelve hours"  "Twelve?" How Strange.

(post sexy times)

What do you think, would you have given these a chance based on these pages?

Do you do the page 99 test for other fiction?  What are you reading now.... go check out page 99 and tell us if it measures up? 

Nevermind the crazy juice gossip on the cover, look REALLY closely at Robert's face:

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH ROBERT'S FACE IN THE SUIT PICTURE? That is NOT his face, I know his face!

Is this the secret brother the otherwise asthetically pleasing Pattinsons lock in the attic for most of the year?

Did Robert eat walnuts and just found he's allergic to them?

Good god, people, give me some answers.

Looking for the name of a story about B and E and they’re best friends all their life and secretly in love with each other but never tell each other and then 1 night Tanya comes into town which is a mutual friend (so they are in their 20’s) of theirs and they get drunk and ummmm yeah all 3… and then after that incident B and E struggle with their feelings for each other and then finally end up together……arghhh what the heck fic is that??

littlestar's review challenge made me start to wonder 'bout the review habits of campers here at ADF. 

If you're reading a completed story, do you review every chapter as you read, or wait until the last chapter or epilogue to review?

Do you review right after reading an update to a WIP, or do you mull it over and then review later?

Do you expect a reply from the author, or are you content to leave a comment and move on?

Do you read others' reviews before posting your own?

Do you think it's rude to leave a critical review?

my responses will be inside...

happy birthday, ranger/amazing writer/my lady love jandco!

yes, folks, it's a busy week for ranger birthdays!

get in here, and appreciate up on one of the best friends a girl could have.

almost three years ago, i sent a PM to a writer who had written a story that was so thought-provoking that i couldn't even deal.  she had just started writing the funniest thing i'd ever read, and i wanted to talk to her about it.

thus, the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

i love you, jandco.  you're much more amazing than you will ever, ever give yourself credit for.

need evidence?

well, jandco and campers.  go check this link out, and please feel free to post and wish her well!

happy birthday, jandco.  a livejournal community.

that link will take you to a place where people have created pics, vids, and oneshots to celebrate your birthday, jimmy.  there's even someone serenading you!

now, get over there and in here and wish this amazing person well on her birthday!

Give us your best please! Post things that make you laugh even though they shouldn't

I will start

Hello all,

after reading so much of great fics I decided to try my hand at this :) I want to try writye a NM AU story with ExB, I have rough outline in my head :) I'd like to ask for help or betaing it :) Thanks in advance

BEHOLD, WTVOC'S FAVORITE EPISODE OF BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER OF ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME!

Buffy: World is what it is. We fight, we die. Wishing doesn't change that.
Giles: I have to believe in a better world.
Buffy: Go ahead. I have to live in this one.

ahh, the introduction of anyanka.  an alterna-world.  cleveland as hellmouth.  VAMP WILLOW AND VAMP XANDER.  EVEN IF THIS ISN'T YOUR ALL-TIME FAVORITE, IT'S GOTTA RANK AT LEAST A TOP FIVE.

I don't actively search for BD spoiler photos.. but I can't look away when I see them posted! This is going to be like NM all over, where I'd seen most of the movie through photos before I saw the movie... Anyone else super duper crazy excited over photos but also a teeny bit sad with me?

Actual conversation with that guy I live with: 

Me: "I keep seeing all the photos and I can't look away, and it doesn't come out for another year!"

TGILW: "You already read the book, you know what happens. Taylor Lautner's not going to wear a shirt, and Robert Pattinson is going to wear something frumpy... tweed, or an ugly sweater or something."

Me: "I can't believe you know their names!"

TGILW: "Sure I do. Taylor Lautner was dating Taylor Swift. He was like 17, and she was 19, that's LEGENDARY. I'd wreck her."

Have any of you come across a well written fic that continues after BD? Not just any fic.  I want to read one where the Volturi is finally snuffed out.  Maybe not all of them, but at least Aro, Cauis and Jane. After watching Eclipse, I got the feeling that Felix, if given the chance could turn his back on the Volturi and side with the Cullens, so I'd like to see him survive if at all possible.

Anyway, if you know of a story like this, please let me have the link. If not, would any one of you talented writers be willing to write a story such as this? I'd be first in line to read it if you did.

Thanks in advance.

Name a fic that got under your skin and why.

It can be for a good or bad reason.

For example, The Perfect Wife got under my skin because of the twisted relationships, Peonies is a story that still comes to mind because of the beautiful beautiful heartfail, and Mr. Horrible stays with me like a classic Tracy/Hepburn comedy, but hotter.

Name the stories that twenty years from now you will remember and think,

Oh yeah. That story really got to me. I thought about it for days after I read it. It still affects me.

These are stories that elicit a gut emotional response, either love or hate.

All right children, Lets do this thing!
