Slightly (very) irrelevant: Here is my favorite photo from last night's Golden Globes:

Your welcome! 

EDIT: Re-Sized pic as too big. 

So lately I've been having trouble finding a fanfic that I can really get into. I'm looking for stories where bella is supernatural when she meets edward. She can be a witch, shapeshifter, wolf, vampire, basically anything. But, not to be mean, I am looking for well written stories, just fanfics that don't have a large amout of grammatical errors. Thanks and believe me if there are any other stories that aren't bella being supernatural I'm more than willing to check it out. One more thing it has to have some drama, I can't stand the stories where it's rainbows and unicorns pooping out butterflies. Thanks you in advance.

I just finished You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, it has supernatural humans and Bella has her gift from the beginning.  It was well written, though I had a little trouble following at the end, and it wasn't how I would have ended the story, but I enjoyed it.  Oh it also takes place in the South, though there isn't too much 'Southernism' for whoever was looking for South stories (lamekurker?).

Another supernatural story I enjoy is You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, Bella has her gift from the beginning but doesn't know about it, but does find out about it very early on.

Read them and I agree. Do you notice that most books these days come in threes? I think authors struggle to come up story lines that  fit their themes and they go for the bizarre and outrageous trying to top readership as each is published.
Crossfire novels was supposed to be three now I think we are up 5 books. I guarantee that  by 4/5 we are all gonna be played out.
To your point, that's why behaviours same odd. Authors struggle with originality/creative plot lines to hold our interest.  Sorry for rambling, it just makes me mad sometimes

I am so glad it wasn't only me.  I know what you mean about serializations and totally agree, personally most of these are totally unnecessary.  I will go further and say I really dislike the trend to publish bits of a book, its so freaking annoying.

The first fic I thought of when I read this question was Elemental too! I really liked it and its outtakes.



I think I may go for Giofógach next, thanks for the rec!

Yeah, the trend for serializations drive me crazy too. For me, the worst was waiting for all 12 parts of Ava Claire's His Submissive series to come out so that I could read it. I thought it was worth the wait once I was finally able to read it. Keeping track of how many parts are coming out is the part that I hate since I won't start reading a series until it's complete. Can't stand WIPs... 

So, I liked Holding On and Letting Go by Jenny0719 so much that I decided to give another of her fics a try and read Defying Gravity. It's your usual story: girl meets boy, falls in love, certain things happen to keep boy and girl apart, girl gets her happily ever after, but there was something about it that really made me like it. That is to say, I liked this B&E enough that I decided to read the sequel, Between the Sun and the Moon, which I thought was merely okay. The author seemed to have lost her steam somewhere during the fic and it turned out to be more of a really, really long epilogue. I still liked it enough to read the whole thing, But I'd stick to rec'ing only the the first part, Defying Gravity. I rec it because I liked it despite those usual elements that make one want to flounce--like instalove and a typical storyline. It's written well with well developed characters and had me hooked.

Defying Gravity

Amen. Most of these authors are talented and we would buy their books, they don't always need serializations to keep us hooked. I understand the need to ride the wave of popularity and success but enough is enough.
Oh well, I guess we just have to suck it up. I'll wait impatiently for S Day to finish her Crossfire series. Gideon Cross has me hooked and I can't let go.

I'll have to check the books out, once the series is complete. 

Ok, so we've played the "Name your top 10 fics" game many times in the past...  I enjoy it every single time!  How about this time we pretend you're stranded on a deserted island and your solar-powered-reading-device can only have one single fan fiction author on it.   Which fic writer do you choose?  (oh and this magic device would also be updated "magically" with any new fics this person writes ;-) )

I guess I'd probably pick lolashoes...   or maybe AngstGoddess003?

Ohhhh, just the one - I suppose it has to be Knicnort3 I have a soft spot for all her fics even though some of them are very out of the box. 

That single phrase is the reason I will never read this fic. Let's get serious people, especially when it comes to money.

I have no rec's for you right now, I am reading so much Sterek, with Sherlock breaks in between

Welcome, Leola mae, know that I love you. Never read Volturi Dairy, the theme wasn't my cup of tea, but I've read everything else, and I adore it. I might have to re-read Attic some time soon.

Thank you. I don't expect everyone to read VD. Not every story is for everybody. I don't read everything either. It's unrealistic to expect that someone would. Lol! I'm glad you've enjoyed what you have read. That makes me happy.  :-)

Yes it is a WIP. I haven't read it yet either, but I have been following it to wait until it is complete. I have to say, that it sucks that TWCS is doing this. I mean, really?? I won't be surprised if she ends up moving all of her stories to a blog like she suggested.

This is why I'm on FWAR. Their host site makes them not post naked pictures, but they are vehemently opposed to censorship.
