That's why I'm trying to write only vamp fics. I figure everyone else is doing great with the AH, so I'll leave those to the experts. I got into Twilight because of the vampires, so I aim to keep them involved.
Have you published anything on FFn yet? If so, link please! :)

I'm working on it. I need to get my application into Project Team Beta so I can have my stories properly edited. Between being sick and work and preparing for my B-Day, I'm really short on time and I prefer to spending my free time writing more of my stories rather than filling out forms. (All my US Government experience has made me very form-leery. :D)

My goal is to post the NC-17 versions on TWCS and the slightly toned down versions on FFN to comply with their rules. I'd eventually like to submit to Twilighted as well.

Of course, all of this is contingent on my getting a beta or two, so now we're back to the beginning. (Insert headshake and laughter here.)

Lol, I thought I'd drop it as nearly everyone just calls me Loopy on here - that or they're trying to tell me something.  :D

Haha - at least you can blame it on the hormones.

I have no excuse!   :laugh:

Lol, but I've been blaming my hormones for being loopy for the last 15 years (my poor daughter).  :D

I understand that all too well :D If ever you need a beta and find PTB too stressful a process, I'll happily beta for you. I already beta one story and answer Emergency Beta Service questions from time to time, so I'm not too awful at it ;) I find many of the girls on PTS are happy to pre-read, also. Oh, and I know both Ella and Astro beta read too. Take your pick ;D

Yay! I'm not a freak. :D

The thing about being a beta for me is that I'm pretty good at spelling, punctuation and grammar. (In English at least, ask me to write in Klingon and well, that story will never live long or prosper.) What I need is more of a pre-reader who can tell me if I'm making sense and explaining things properly. Sometimes I forget that my readers don't know the whole story yet, so I have to go into more detail. Sounds like a "duh", but it's true.

LOL! I'm a creative beta with SparklyRedPen. I thought I was a technical beta since really? I don't really write. But I'm great with SPaG  issues. But my writers seemed to think I do okay. I guess reading a lot helps.

Before I found fanfiction I didn't even know what a beta was. 

Now, I'm finding out there are different types - mind blowing!

This is the part where you run around in figure 8's, flailing wildly and screaming, "My mind is blown! My. Mind. Is. Blown! " then put it on Youtube with intercuts of Rob's O face for us. :D

Is it weird that I subscribe to GQ and Esquire in order to write better Male POV? (The April issue of GQis all about style, so Edward shall be rather dapper in my future fics. ;) )

Also, when did "Words with Friends" come out? (The fic, not the app and closet jokes are not appreciated. :D

Not weird at all, maybe a little unusual though ;) I'm sure it'll pay off.

FF.net says it was written between April 2011 and July 2012 :)

Bella moves to the other side of the world, leaving everything she's ever known behind, including a broken heart. Edward, star player of one of New Zealand's best Super15 rugby teams is so smitten over his new Pilates trainer, he can't stop himself from going after her. Will they find a way to make it work on and off the field?

I read it the other day and liked it, it probably could have been half the length though. Plus I looked up pictures of lots of hot rugby players as inspiration.. I wonder if there's a Rugbyward manip?

So I finished reading Caged... I'm taking a break from Smoke & Mirrors. And I have to say its definitely not what I expected, I kind of expected something like Edward working for somebody dangerous and meeting Bella and wanting to get out of the business and not being able to or something like that, a lot of angst for sure.

But it was nothing like that! I think I have a great Imagination if I got that from reading the summary. Anyways its a good read, and I didn't think it had to much angst. ;D

My apologies in advance for this!  :(

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

It's manips like this that make me want to learn how to use Photoshop!

But then I'd always be worrying about the feds seizing my computer for having pornography on it!


These aren't manips, but they are Rob and Rugby related, and they're just too darn cute!
Hopefully they'll wash away the bitter after-taste of that manip!



Do you think that dog appreciates how lucky it is?
