  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
Thread #4 - We are crazy talkers here!

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:

Geez! You were all chatty today! I didn't think I would ever catch up, and when I finally did, I discover that I'm the one that's been prattling on for the entire last page!

If you have PM'ed me to request the contest entries anthologies, I'm sending them now. I'll send the Angst and DTE contests.

I also have the HEA, Ho Hey, Make Me Laugh, MoreIsMore and Taste of The Forbidden I and II Anthologies, so if you want those, PM and tell me what you want.

Thank you   :-* :-* :-*

I have only just started using epubs and the only reason is because I listen to fics on my phone using the Voice Dream app. When I first started using it, I noticed that, suddenly, in the middle of a sentence,"she" would blurt out, "minus one hundred and thirty-seven". When I checked, she was reading the page number.

That doesn't seem to happen with epubs.

As for Voice Dream, I still love it, and the extra 2 hours of reading I get done every day. I did find discover another unusual little glitch in it though - last week, "she" was reading a lemon, and all of a sudden, she started going, "millimetres, millimetres, millimetres." Turns out, Bella was saying "mmmmmm" and later, when she laughed, the Voice Dream chick converted "haha" to "hectares, hectares."  :D :D :D
Yeah, there are somethings about read to me that can be annoying like that. Or amusing.  Depending on how it fits with the story. 

I don't know if you can change how they read standard items.

This one is a more similar angle. But I've noticed that its not just the nose job...she has lost a ton of weight. Hollywood! Even the bloody writers have to skinny



She is rich. New career, no need for comfort food anymore.

Every time I look at SM I actually see Bella.  Think about it.  Brown wavy hair and brown eyes.  She looks more like what I picture Bella to look like than SAF does. 

Hmmm.  Wonder if her husband has bronze hair and green eyes.  Or maybe that was the kid she had a crush on in HS  :P ;D

She IS Bella.

Edward and Bella start out hot and heavy but Edward turns fickle. His past includes a crazy ex and her psycho new boyfriend. Lots of laughs included. My first attempt at FanFiction. Rated M. PS: Yes the football schedule isn't correct and the Spanish is sub par, but the basic story line is fun!

I've been reading this for the past two days and I haven't gotten very far... because I want to flounce it every chapter!!!

I'm not kidding, I want to flounce it but then I read something that is not so bad and I keep reading. :(

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

I love the author and her fics, but I think I also flounced that one. It was her first fic.
She totally grows as an writer.

Or adorable Andy?


This year we have the lovely Lynton and desirable Dan.
 

Oh - and they cook!  ;)

I can't watch any cook shows anymore. And I just had to erase that cause I wrote cock!!!
Fanfiction addict? Maybe.....

Anyway, those shows makes me hungry!

Thanks for indulging my question on file types, I was hoping there was one file type that was readily available that easily converted (nicely converted) between all other file types, oh well.

I think part of the problem is how they are initially made.  When I make them with Calibre, they convert from epub to mobi and PDF without a problem.  But some of the epubs and PDFs I've got from others don't always convert. 

I'm just assuming it's something in the program that makes them where it sticks something in the finished product that makes it not convert well.

How do I find links to all these contests?  I got the ones above.

I'm on GR but I don't have a 'challenge question' I really should, but I'm pretty sure I'd come up with something sexual that would just offend most people.  :P :D
See, now that is the perfect reason to have a challenge question. 

Who wants a bunch of "friends" that don't have the same, uh, sense of humor? as you?  :D :D :D :D

Okay here's something I think I've never confessed I FLOVE Geordie Shore - it's the accent as the hubby's from Newcastle, I just p*ss myself laughing when watching it as he's nothing like the guys on there when it comes to waxing their bodies, make up etc.  :o :D
Oh also I saw someone mention Real Housewives I love OC and Beverly Hills.
I just love Jiggy and what Lisa dresses him in.  :D

Jiggy is awfully cute....  ;D

LINK PrincessRachael - My Mate

Thanks to RDMickey for asking about My Mate (with a pretty teaser quote) and Demaris for answering

I may stand alone in this but I really enjoyed My Mate, I read it very early on in my fic career but I remember it still which is always a sign the a fic was good enough to withstand my early onset alzheimer's...Screamers? Errrr, *whispers* I got 'distracted' and kinda forgot to go back....

I liked it. With a different set of vamp rules that took me a little time to get used to, it had a little of everything (a little smut, a little angst/drama, a little action). It was ultimately a quick read about B/E's mating and romance. Though it took the author a few chapters for the story to start making sense, once it got going the writing was quickly paced and held my interest. The sequel, My Power, is complete, so I'll read that next.

Two reluctant vampires find themselves mated, each requiring the other's blood to survive. She will fight it. He will fight for her. In the end, their blood will save them both. Graphic lemons and violence. Rated M.

And she claimed to be so pious.  :P I'm not sure about all the Mormon tenets, but if they frown upon drinking soda pop, I doubt plastic surgery and injections are looked upon highly.

I suspect it's different when you are very rich!  There is no way the pre Twilight SM is the same as the woman in those promotional pictures.  I know I am cynical.   ;D

Guys, this is Hollywood!!! She was on tv every 5 seconds when Twi hit the big screen, of course she felt she had to shed some pounds. My sister is visiting me and I go on a diet, it's what we women do. HS reunion??? We fast for a year!!!
She looks older to me slimmed down and thank God Alice is now dressing her. Those two pics. Pre  weight loss.....just no.
Of course if you have money, spend some on yourself, I'd say she earned it. Idk, even with the weight loss she still looks uncomfortable in those pics.

I hear you and have no problem with her having the money, good luck to her.  I was not really referring to the weaight thing, she has done more then loose weight but at the end of they day that is her business.

"Take one bowel of each and three pictures of orange juice." She said.

This is from Mafia Love and I can't flounce...I have a problem.
In her summary she says that "critasims"are welcome.....I know, I saw that and continued. My fault.

Is his accent thicker in this video than it is nowadays?  I love hearing him talk!
 :D
Err? Can't hear an accent...I hear an English guy who went to a reasonable good school. For accents watch Geordie Shore though to be honest theirs is not an accent, it is as Astro says a completely different language.

If I had made as much money as her, from one of my f u c k e d-up dreams? I'm telling you all right now, the Bionic Woman would have nothing on me! To hell with all this panting, sweaty workouts, "Dr Extreme Makeover suck it all out!" THEN I'd get sweaty with the Pretty, after all, what more incentive do you need to lose weight...I'm surprised it took her this long? I'd have been Courtney Coxed by New Moon....
