  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
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:

My baby boy was born almost 2 weeks ago, I have been lurking but haven't had much time with 2 hands at the computer to post

Isaac Donald was 4.29 kg (9lbs 7.3 oz).  Everything went smoothly and we are back home get adjusted to 2 kids.  We just went yesterday to register him so his name is official and there won't be an Isaac Calrissian. 

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

:cheer:  :cheer:  OMG BG he is simply Gorgeous!!!!!!!!  :cheer: :cheer:

Every single fanfic complaint I have is usually regarding Twific. I have caught myself thinking "This only happens with Twilight!"  :(

I'm actually really curious as to what your complaints are.  I've found that as long as the romance/relationship building aspect seems solid, a fic can get decently popular.  The other aspects of the story are secondary.

Bluegeek,

Congrats on the addition.
One of the rare few....

Oooooh, he's soooooooo adorable!! Congrats Bluegeek!!!

I also have only two kids, a girl then a boy. 2 is enough for us, specially since we have 1 of each  :) Having more would be a strain on our finances and our eardrums  :P

Hmm. No tats so far. They would have to put me out. I don't really like needles. ;)

Okay, so Flagfic is in the process of moving to a new server company. Until then, or even after then,  Someone on FB found this site.   You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login - I just tried it and it worked on my phone. So it should work for those of you with iPads.  ;D

Just downloaded all of Wordless on my IPAD in EPUB form from ficsave.com   Worked with no problem

Haven't commented here in a while, but jumping in:

I have two tats, a blue moon on my neck and a claddaugh on my back. I want more, but it'll have to wait til I can justify the cost to myself (and my mother, really, she butts in about everything I do), and until I decide what I want. I know I want something book related, something literary, since my two main hobbies are books and games, and the blue moon I have is from a game series, that leaves books.

  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
So I had this mental list of stories to read that were rec'd recently here and on FB and I am totally blanking on them now.   So frustrating!

I just finished Jenrar's You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
Edward left Bella in New Moon to keep her safe. Not all monsters are immortal, and fate usually gets its way, no matter how hard you fight it. Rated M for language, lemons, and adult situations. Not your typical "Bella has a baby" story. Meaning, no half-vampire babies.
Twilight - Rated: M - English - Angst/Romance - Chapters: 40 - Words: 107,960 - Reviews: 2043 - Favs: 815 - Follows: 650 - Updated: Oct 20, 2013 - Published: Jan 11, 2012 - [Bella, Edward] - Complete

It was a little different but does have an HEA for Bella and Edward.
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
[/spoiler][/spoiler]

Overall, I enjoyed it.  She writes with Drotuno, though her style is a little different.  Lemons aren't excessive and she treats Edward like what he is.... a 17 year old virgin.  Okay with some knowledge....  Don't read the AN's, they are way too long and don't say anything really.

Off to figure out what's next.....  >:D

I'm in a junkie phase.  I'm following a bunch of WIPs.  I compulsively read them as soon as they post (they're all a little drabblish, except for Spin and Sway by pattyrose and Snapshots by LyricalKris), then go into withdrawal until another one posts.  To keep the cravings at bay, I've started reading More to Love than This by maxigrumpling (which is pretty good once you get past the first couple of gruesome chapters).

I've been down with the flu all week, so I wake up to read a little before I fall into a (drug-induced) coma.  Then do it all over again.  Maybe it's the drugs that are turning me into the junkie and not the Twific?...nah, I think I've been a Twiholic too long to blame it on drugs now.

Sorry you're not feeling well. I've been fighting a cold for a week now. And mostly winning. Except decongestants bother my back. :( 

I've been reading a lot more WIPs lately too. I'm following 4 or 5 not including the ones I beta. And it is sooo hard to wait for updates. 3 update at least weekly. The other is every other week I think. Its only got a few chapters so far. I'm taking a chance on it as it is her first. And I tend to forget I'm reading it between updates. :P

So I started Blood Lines by Windchymes. It was probably rec'd in the Vampward group. We'll see how it goes. ;)

Okay, this is a question to all those like me who like to only read complete fics and only on their tablet. I HATE reading a fic from a blog or website.

How do you snag a fic from a website/blog if the chapters are not actual posts. They have it set up a different way. I know of Blog 2 Book site but it won't work with the way the authors have set up their website.  Here is the website in case that helps:

You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login!stories/c1s20

Are my only options to copy and paste into my own PDF/Doc file to save it?   :'(

By the way, if you're waiting for the Writersisters to finish Cygnet on FFN, you're not going to get it. At least from what I can tell from a PM I got when I followed it and when I read the A/N (chapter 4) of that story. On FFN it has gone up to 4 chapters and on their website it is up to 24. And they also have 3 other stories they are posting on their website. Lost, Falling for Acacia and also Boy to Man.

  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
Christag, I think your only option is to cut and paste on this one. Have they finished any of the stories?  Because Counselor, the base story, is also incomplete on ffnet and it's not on the website either.  :(

According to the A/N in chapter 4 of Cynget it says that they will finish Counselor on FFN. And that was posted two days ago.

I was kind of afraid that was going to be my only option, to copy/paste. :/

Hmmm. I guess they pulled it then. Because it's not showing as complete when I checked it. :P

The A/N on Cynget (Chapter 4) says:

Quote
At this stage, Counsel and Mask'Charade will continue to be posted on FanFiction.

Counsel was last updated on April 1st. So, it looks like they are still going through with updating it on FFN.

Ugh! Why is she doing that? How irritating. Is it to stop people like us who save and read them when they are complete? That alone would turn me off of an author and not read anymore of their stories.

She's doing what Icy did after she got a deal on her book. If you are a member of her Facebook group, she posts a complete PDF at the end.   ;)

That's what I usually have to do, copy & paste, so annoying. There's the grabmybooks plug in, it works wonderfully, if you can figure out all the settings, which I'm not so good at. I've bumbled into getting a whole story written in parts like that into one file before, but for the life of me, I can't remember how I did it, and couldnt do it again a while back when I tried.

Anchalee told me how to do it on the non-canon thread, I think.  Try searching that thread using "grabmybooks" as your search term.  I think I changed the subject line.  If it's not on the non-canon thread, then it's on the wolf pack thread.
