  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
Thread #7 - 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:

o m g YES! it was a giant cluster fuck
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Also read The Ties That Bind by yesyov and flounced sooo quickly. I keep finding duds and am still questing for this elusive story that's escaped me. I feel like I just need to open every story that's been uploaded here, because I'm 75% sure it was a PDF.
LOL! I've been looking for a story for a bout a week.  I swear I read it on my Kindle last summer.  Can't find it anywhere.  I think I have opened ever story on my Kindle. I have no idea how to find in within the 33K books in my Calibre.  Sigh.  I put it in the 152 thread and up on Facebook.  Hopefully someone will recognize it.   :P

 :iagree:  I have enough drama in RL, I don't really need it in my fiction.


Drotuno I have read her Gravity series, and a few of her other stories, and have really enjoyed them. She is a hell of a writer. Check her out, and I am sure you won't be disappointed.

Wow! Good luck with using that with a 7 book Diana Gabaldon  boxset ! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] If you've read RDM's posts you'll know what a *ucking nightmare that'll be.....[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I downloaded the box set, but since all 7 books were one huge a$$ epub, I couldn't tell where I was. The books are long enough, but when your ipad is showing 1,234,567,890 pages you kinda get scared.  :ghost: :shocked: :sign0135:

Donna remember which one, but one of my restarts of DIA. I had deleted the epub off my ipad and when I restarted it, I just did one book at the time. Ok....now to catch up on 5 pages over the weekend that posted here.

Did anybody notice that the content of the spam keeps changing.    I think I'm just going to go to bed - between this jerk and the news that my father (who has Alzheimer's and has just been placed in a nursing home as of yesterday) is trying to leave the nursing home (through locked doors both on his door and the wing he's on) and the fact that its a snowstorm outside which means he isn't going to get very far, I've had it for the night.

Sorry to hear that Ruth ! Let us know if we can help.

So MIA for a couple of days and it looks like I missed the spammer. Haven't a read a thing, so I am still on the 2nd attempt of the Angel series by Drutono. Now that hubs is gone for over a week to include the weekend my priorities are:
Rest
Read
Re-watch Outlander with the BluRay I bought.

That's R&R+R!!

Hubs and I have secured our flight plans for Scotland this summer. He flies Sat, Jul 11 to Paris and will work until Wed. Wed he flies to London. I fly Wed to London and arrive Jul 16 - Our 26th wedding anniversary. He will meet me at the airport and from there we are flying to Aberdeen. Now I just gotta narrow down the things to see (I have over 50 things to see all over the country) and to make hotel arrangements.


Made 3 outlander wallpapers because I couldn't decided which quote I liked best with the pic.








Watched Paleyfest for Outlander, which was actually pretty comical. Tumblr here and there. Did housework. Worked 63 hours last week. Read updates to several wips I have going. So all caught up.  :)

Let's see.....Gifts for everyone.  :luck: :luck: :luck:


     

     



I don't really like H.S. fics. TOV (Tropic of Virgo) everyone raved about and to me it was ok.

The Plan I read as a wip as it was happening. Gotta admit she did something unique and had all of us going.

Don't like drama for the sake of drama either, which unfortunately Outlander does. It seems sometimes it was how many different ways can we torture.

And now....to READ...peacefully !

What you see isn't always what you get. By all appearances, Masen lives the life of sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll. He's living the dream that has turned into a nightmare because his life - and his reputation - is not his own. There must be more to life than tour buses, groupies, paparazzi, and slimy record producers. AH/ExB/Rated M

Has anyone read The Blessing Ring by Quantum Fizzx?

Bella goes through the motions in life and finds herself always thinking about her past, her lost chance at love. Forces begin to compel her, but is she finally strong enough to go after the only thing she has ever truly wanted… even when that dream is farther out of reach than ever?

Still searching for this one story I can't seem to get a grasp on and going through all the sources trying to find it. I found this last night and hate read it before bed. Woke up still annoyed with myself for staying up so late to finish it. UGH! She also wrote The Plan, and it took me no more than three times to attempt reading that, because her writing style frustrates me to no end, and it was the same in this one. Told in present tense and in flashbacks, which was probably so confusing to some people because she has a timeline set up at the end of each chapter with her authors notes. Anyway I thought about it and it's probably a great take on the canon story. This Bella is too shy and timid to do anything, and Edward harbors this secret obsession but is a martyr and thinks she's too perfect and pure to attempt starting a relationship with because his life is a mess wah wah wah. Mind you they're teenagers. It ends on a happy note, but with all the drama it took to get there you just feel kind of meh about it.

Spoilers because I need to rant!
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Mostly I just had issues with the plot because every teenager I know, including when I was one, was a selfish asshole that will take whatever they want IF THEY KNOW IT'S AVAILABLE (some don't even care about that) so this plot just seemed like a giant drama fest for no reason other than to keep these two apart.

And that is why I don't read her stories.  I want to bang my head against the wall after every chapter.

Thanks for the thought RD.  Right now dad seems to have calmed down.  My aunt took my mother up to see him yesterday (Monday) - both dreading what he'd be like.  He was calm - he's where he needs to be although I'm not sure he's convinced of that.  He won't let her bring anything from home to put up on the walls, etc.  She keeps taking her stuffed bear Grumpy to him (Grumpy became his sort of - my mother broke her hip last year at this time and ended up in the hospital.  When she got back, she moved into the bedroom across the hall and left the bears and LL Bean moose with him to keep him company - and they both talk to Grumpy - he may as well be another kid).  Anyway - he's happy to see Grumpy but won't let her leave the bear because he's afraid someone might steal him.  He might be right.  He was also frantic about his wallet - he couldn't find it - and he never actually had it - my mother did.  She and his sister filled it with blank paper and a couple of dollars and took it to him yesterday but he didn't want that to be left either - just wanted to know where it was.   He keeps sliding between being sad, to being easy to deal with and then he goes into his "I am the king of my castle and what I say goes" and unfortunately he is no longer the king of his castle and he's not getting his way - which is probably frustrating the hell out of him.   My mother's hoping to get him moved into a nursing home closer to home as soon as a bed opens up and then more of us can get to see him - not that he remembers if someone has been there but...... oddly enough this just reminded me of the story Broken by Wendy Ann - Bella is raped in Port Angeles (not the story someone on the other thread is looking for) and the Cullens take her in and Emmett gives her a stuffed pig named Bentley.   At any rate - things seem to have calmed down at home - at least my aunt didn't call today with any earth shattering news.   This is sort of reminding me of the thread we have on the InDeath site (InDeath series by J.D.Robb/Nora Roberts) - you know you've read too much InDeath when you can start equating it to things you run across in real life.   In this case - I've been reading too much Twilight fanfic - in this case equating Grumpy with poor Bentley and their respective patients.  Life is strange......

I hear you all on the HS fic front, there are a few that I like, but for the most part I tend to steer clear.  I find that most of the time the characters are written like they're teenagers in adult situations, pretty much being adults, or as whiny, self-absorbed 20somethings still in High School. Drives me nuts.

I started Outlander today, got about 200 pages in and I'm not sure how I'm feeling about it. I could just not be in the mood for this kind of story at the moment.  It's really well written, and I can see it as the kind of thing I'll enjoy, but at the moment I'm just not getting into it. Wondering if it's cause I just finished re-reading The Rosie Project and The Rosie Effect (two of my favourite books ever) and they are just so different. We shall see.

I read the first 15 chapters or so and then skimmed it. From what I remember it's pretty good, I want to read it when it's complete. The chapters are on the shorter side and I think it's updated regularly.

Caught in the Flames is more or less updated daily (or atleast every other day it seems.  I'm in a fic rut, so I have no idea what I'd want to read next.
