Twific Discussion and Recommendations - Part Five - OVER 18 ONLY - ADULT ONLY
« on: October 09, 2013, 10:40 AM »
Thread #5 - We are crazy talkers here! Join in the fun!

ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW! 

This is the new thread as the other was sooo long and had lots of pages. Continuation of our wonderful discussions on Twilight Fanfiction, Books, and Life in general.  But mostly Twilight fanfics... and life stuff that will get me a NOT ALLOWED statement. 

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice   

Because we know drypen's watching    :googlyeyes:

It certainly has been quiet here lately. I've been wondering about you Loopy (and Astro, Demaris, Limom, etc...)

Congratulations Andiemoe!

Sorry to hear you've been sick and hope you feel better Caro, Loopy and Astro!

To get myself out of my fanfic slump, I've been reading OF and nothing really to recommend except CD Reiss' Songs of Submission series. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login. I'm on her mailing list so I was pleasantly surprised to receive a link to an epilogue to the series (which had been marked as complete). It's so nice when authors say "thank you" in that way! Anyway, it got me off my butt to start the series, and I'm addicted. I'm on book 6 now, so I only have one more left (plus the little freebie)! I think I might take a look at your recs, Loopy, when I'm done with this and get back to fanfiction.

Hope everyone else is well!

Thank you hun.  :-*  I just cooked dinner and it was not good, poor hubs.   ^-^

Glad you and bump are doing okay now, and you are able to get the rest you need and your hubby is taking good care of you (and everyone else).

I'm sure you are hun. I've found that boys are easier than girls.  :D :D

Me and bump are okay now, I just made myself quite ill last week with stress.
But all seems to be okay now, thanks to the hubby as he is not only working, but looking after me, Saxon and the animals with (very little) help from my daughter.  :)

I decided to download my own favourite list.  It took 2 hours to go through first part; the actually processing part has been going nonstop since Friday afternoon and is still only 96% done.  If anyone is thinking about downloading my "favourites" be aware it will take DAYS
I looked at it ....*backs away slowly from the computer*

Yeah, no.  But it helped that you collect other fandoms.  I pretty much only read Twilight, with a few Stephanie Plum and Meg Cabot's Missing and Mediator stories.  Unfortunately, the Meg Cabot stuff is mostly written by teens and is not so good.  I keep hoping.  I think I tried a Pern one once.  Not so good either. 

I think I will stick with Twilight for now.  When I finish school, I may try some HP.  Why I thought going back to school was a good thing at my age, I don't know....  My dad calls me his daughter of perpetual studies.  I like learning.   Maybe I should have done something easier though LOL!  :D :D :D :D

I downloaded my favs, and it only took a few hours. I only have 552 stories on my favs list so maybe that is why?

I haven't read a decent fic for ages hence my silence.  Absolutely nothing is holding my interest. 

I too, have read lots of OF but can't actually recommend anything as I haven't really loved any of them.

I need help!

I started a new eating plan to loose some weight. I challenged myself to stay on this plan for the month of December and I have to say that day one is KICKING MY ASS! OMG, it is soooo hard.  What about you all, any plans to loose weight or get in shape? I had to talk to someone about this, as my family is tired of hearing about it. LOL

On that note, anyone got any good twilight fics that about B loosing weight? The only one I have read was Let's Get Physical by Lalina.

I don't have any advice on dieting, but I just downloaded a few of Lalina's fics--I've never read anything by her. Was Let's Get Physical good? (From a recent post on the 152, I also DL'd Lalina - The Sacrificial Lamb and The Lion and The Jackal if anyone has opinions on those).

P.S. I did read a fic once that I think was called Fourteen, but can't remember the author. It wasn't about her losing weight as much as accepting who she was if I recall correctly. I remember liking it even though I think it was a HS fic, which usually aren't my thing.)

If I wasn't so damn lazy I would delete the majority of stuff on my fav list because most are not.  I hardly add anything to the list these days. I find I read more HP then Twlight now, I find the change of characters refreshing.  I do agree about the other fandom's they don't seem to have the quality of storytelling/writing found in the HP & Twi fandoms but hell we could be wrong.

I like learning things too and again if I was not so damn lazy I'd  pick up my PhD again but hey I think my laziness might be terminal.

I am sorry to say I am of no use to you as I am  on a C food diet.  I see it and then eat it.

I really enjoyed Get Physical by Lalina.

I enjoyed Let's get physical and thought it was really good. I enjoyed her writing and the plot. I have read The Sacrificial Lamb and enjoyed that as well. I started reading The Lion and the Jackal when it was a WIP but got frustrated with waiting for updates, so stopped reading it. I have downloaded the completed story and it is on my TBR list. I just haven't gotten to it.


The eating plan I have started is Rick Gallop's The GI Diet. Not sure if I will be able to stick with it for a whole month, but I am going to give it my best.

So far what I like about this GI plan is that you don't have to give up food, just adjust the choices that you are making. Of course some items are just not good no matter what, but this plan is easy to understand and you don't have to count calories.

Ya, I have been on that diet before too. Unfortunately it won't help me loose the 70 pounds I need to drop.

Unfortunately, for my doctor and my waistline, DIET is a four letter word, literally and figuratively!!  It might help if my hubby wasn't trying to feed me all the time.  I swear, that man always wants me to "just try a bite".  He has been doing it since we met, but at the time, I only weighed about 105 pounds…  Not anymore!

My hubby is the same way! "just try it, just a little bite!" "No, I hate whatever that is!", all the freaking time.

Re: Calibre question
« Reply #2335 on: December 01, 2013, 03:11 PM »
I have just one question about Calibre that has been botherring me for a long time...

How do I change the set up in Calibre so that the articles 'the', 'a', 'an' stay at the beginning of a book title?  I really like to have this set up when I add book to Calibre or export it to a new directory.

For example - The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons.

1)  When adding the book to Calibre, the title sort will become automatically like - Bronze Horseman, The
2)  When exporting the book, the title of the book is saved the same way too.

This might me a non-issue for a lot of you but it has bothered me a lot.  I know I can manually change the title individually for each book but I'd love to know if there's a quicker way to do so.

Thanks!

Ya, I can certainly relate. My doctor says that I need to drop some weight, but my hubby says "no you are fine". I was going to the gym regularly for a time, and had lost 30 inches total and 20 pounds. Hubby wasn't happy about that and wanted me to stop. He asked last night if I was going to start back at the gym and admitted he shouldn't have said what he did before when I was attending. He seems to be on board now.
