Hello all,

I am looking not for specific fic, rather specific group of fics. I'd like to read New Moon Alternate Universe stories where point of divergence (so to speak)  is the breakup scene, but Bella doesn't  fall apart there, but gets angry (or something similar) and actively confronts our boneheaded Edward to explain himself and story goes on from there.  Bonus points for stories with HEA ending :)

UPDATE/EDIT:  To be precise,  for the purposes of this campfire I'd like to find stories which change Bella's response to Edward right on THAT moment in woods.  Keep them coming :)

I have been very MIA from the forest lately so I think I missed the latest amnesia post, but judging from all the find-a-fic fires today at least I'm not the only one...

I have been trying to remember the name of this fic for ages: in it I believe E and B were friends and possibly living together, but the scene I vividly remember is E and B going to a club, meeting up with another character like Tanya, doing ecstasy, and then having a threesome. I also vaguely remember a foursome scene in a hottub, including a Rob character.

ring any bells?  I read this quite a while ago so it could be long gone by now :/

Do you write fan fiction?

Give us a little peek!

Post excerpts from your upcoming chapters here!

Hello Campers!

Yay!  It's Monday, my favorite day of the week. Has everyone calmed down from seeing new Edward/Bella pics on the BD set yesterday? omg i thought the internet was going to shut down.  I'm glad to see so many of you are actually excited to see this film.

So, let's get down to business.  NOVEMBER is a big birthday month.  As a matter of fact, it's pretty popular among the Rangers as well ;)  Curious as to why November is such a common birthday month?  Well... nine months before is Valentine's Day, so there's that.  October 5th is actually the most common birthday in the United States (if not worldwide) because it's 40 weeks after New Year's Eve.

What's Your Sign?

SCORPIO~ (i am such a TEXTBOOK scorpio, it's not even funny)

Scorpio is determined, strong, intense, and often controlled. Anything that is superficial doesn’t appeal to the scorpion. It’s all or nothing! Scorpio is never content to look only at the surface of matters. Scorpio digs deep, questions motives, and instinctively feels what is going on in the environment around him or her.

So do this, Campers:

Tell me your birthday, and I will give you your personality profile based on that date.  For example, if today is your birthday then:

You are both logical and intuitive. You won’t act on a hunch unless you have worked it out on a logical level first. Personal relationships are a part of your life in which you experience many ups and downs. Not always easy to live with, you can sometimes be quite set in your ways. You hold onto things and people tenaciously, and sometimes do so even when they no longer offer you growth opportunities. Self-employment is best for you, as you have your own way of doing things. You are very perceptive and intuitive, and your dedication is tremendous. Persistence is one of your finest traits.

(now listen--i'm not gonna sit here all day and hand out horoscopes so if you show up here like 2-3 hours after this is posted, then sorry, Charlie...i eventually have to work today :P..... we'll do it again another day!)

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!

Okay so i was looking to re-read this story i read a while ago i can't remember the name of it or find it and all i remember is Bella ,Edward and Jasper are in college and Bella just broke up with her boyfriend and she goes to a party being held by her friends Edward and Jasper and she gets really drunk i think and i don't know if she and Edward sleep together right away but i remember Edward was a Dom or something like that and i remember at one point she was with Edward and Jasper and one scene where i think Jasper just watched them but it was a Edward Bella story please please help.

SMILES! :D

The doubles.

And there's Rob!

It's reported they're playing MPB (Brazilian Popular Music) and "Garota de Ipanema"
Everybody's dancing and having a good time.

MORE PICS INSIDE!
& updating as more pictures come in

I was reading this fic a couple weeks ago.... forget the title (obviously).

Bella moves into Edward's old house because Edward was sent to prison some where in Germany (Alcatraz?) and his cellmate is James. Apparently, Edward, Jacob and some other boy (eric?) murdered this girl Emily quite obscenely, so Edward and Jacob were sent to prison, but Eric (?) was sent to juvie. Edward's family couldn't handle living in Forks anymore so they moved (and Edward has a little sister!). So, Edward's cop is Emmett, who allows Edward to write letters back to his house, but Edward doesn't know that his family left him, so Bella gets the letter. Oh, this is all in the mid 1900s... I'm afraid to say World War II.

And that's all I know!

If anyone can please help me, it would be very much appreciated!

Hello strangers.  So little time these days to visit the Forest :( , but had to take time out from the madness that is education to post this:

Welcome to another instalment of the horror watch along! This week we are focusing on the reason we're all here (well, sort of) VAMPIRES! The winner of the poll this week. *drum roll*

I'll be hosting the watchalong on gchat and msn messenger from 7 PM Eastern time (which is about 30 minutes from now) and the first movie should be over around 9-ish. And then around this time (if you missed the first showing) we'll start the movie once again.

*You can PM us your email to make sure you join us in the conversations, or to ask for links!

However if you choose to do neither, you can still comment here on the campfire.

(Look in the comments for megavideo link!)

FYT: Um yeah my avi is good enough right...man I could stare at that thing all night long!

So I've been bogged down in my 400 level classes this semester, and I decided yesterday to look up that google docs page that had the running list of pulled fics.  I had the address saved, but I hadn't downloaded any of the fics to my laptop.  But when I opened up the link I had, it told me the page was unavailable!  My heart is broken!  Does anyone know what's going on with the list?  I've tried the link yesterday and today and I've gotten the same error message both times. 

This is the address I have saved:

https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B5CA1kHTPgarMDM5ZGI5N2ItNGI0NC00N2NlLWE2M2EtYTllN2IyMTEwYzUz&hl=en&pli=1

I'm definitely going to shed some tears if that page is no more...

Chicklette just posted a surprise update (Chapter 19) of her gorgeous fic, Of Kith & Kin.  It was nothing short of AMAZING.

Read, read, read!  Then come back here and discuss!!! xo

Ok I know someone can help me out. I read this fic and for the life of me can't find it now. It was about Edward and him being rich and famous. Bella was working for his publist. (who ever looks after the family image). Anyway they had an affair, she told him she was pregnant and he didn't want no part of it. Later he runs into her and finds out she's still prego and ends up doing the right thing. His grandfather isn't so happy about it and doesn't think she's good enough. Does anyone know this fic?

Hiya campers! We're going to try things a little differently this week...This weekend's watchalong is going to be held on Sunday!! We're hoping that this preliminary campfire will give people a heads up and that more people will be able to participate!

Tomorrow we will be watching::

Summary: Financial troubles force a recent divorcee and her teenage sons Mike and Sam to settle down with her father in the California town of Santa Carla. At first, Sam laughs off rumors he hears about vampires who inhabit the small town. But after Mike meets a beautiful girl at the local amusement park, he begins to exhibit the classic signs of vampirism. Fearing for his own safety, Sam recruits two young vampire hunters to save his brother by finding and destroying the head vampire. (source: IMDB)

The time is usually 7 pm eastern but we are asking for people to comment with what's best for them. We want everyone to be able to participate!!

Comment with any questions or concerns...

and/or

PM with questions about download links and your gchat id, please!

So, last night I was at a symposium at UNLV and had the chance to meet Annie Duke and Howard Lederer, both of whom are "Bracelet Winners" at the Main Event in the World Series of Poker.  They were CRAZY smart, really fun, and very sweet to talk to me -- especially since I'm beyond lousy at poker and struggle to remember the difference between a straight and a flush.

Anyway, today is the 2010 MAIN EVENT in the WSOP held here in Vegas at the Rio...and in honor of the nine guys who are playing cards with each other for 12 hours or so nonstop, I was wondering if you all could think of any Pokerward or Pokerella fics!
