Did you try the Stars Library? They are pretty good.

I read there occasionally, but I don’t like how it logs me out if I step away for a bit and then I have to find where I left off.  I do like that they sometimes have stories authors have moved off of ffn.

I think the conversation has changed, but RE P2P, sorry, but I just won't buy anything if I knew it used to be fic. I'm all for authors making money off their work, but IMO, P2P goes against what fanfic is supposed to be, and I don't like authors making money off characters they didn't create. I know that plenty of fanfic is worlds different from it's origins, but they're still pulling on that familiarity and love of readers, for specific characters. I'll fully support fic authors publishing fully original stories though!

Another problem I have with P2P is this: either the author doesn't do anything but change names and locations, but everything else is identical, in which case, why bother spending money on something I already have, or else they get a publisher who changes TOO much, and it's not even the same story any more, and not as good, which is disappointing. So I don't bother even borrowing them anymore.

But anyway! I started reading Twilight just a few weeks/months before Breaking Dawn (book, not movie) came out. They were just starting to talk about the movie, and I remember not really liking who they cast for Edward, but it worked out ok, and he was a find Edward, after all.

Usually I only have that issue when my anti-virius and system care run because it deletes the cookies.

You stated my opinion in a nutshell. "don't like authors making money off characters they didn't create" -- I tried to point this out to many successful twific authors - and - they didn't like it much. However, that is exactly the point of fanfiction. An author is using characters that were already imagined and developed by a successful author. Just changing names, changing eye colors, changing hair colors, etc. - well, the new author didn't invest in creating the total character. Some successful authors (that P2P), didn't like my opinion.  ???

Hi! It's my first time ever writing here, though I'm always snooping... :-)
I've found a few summaries of stories, but since I can't edit the big archive there, I've put them here.
If you guys need any help adding them to the other file, just let me know.  ^-^

Maybe the anniversary rerelease will bring new interest to fanfiction writers and possibly rekindle the writing urge for others.
I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that it does. It would be nice to have some new stories out there. :)

I think the first book came out in 2005? I remember buying it at Costco and it sat on the shelf for a while.  I didn't actually read them until right before Breaking Dawn (the book) came out and I didn't discover fanfiction until December 2010.  Hard to believe I've been reading twifics for almost 8 years.

I’m really hoping it inspires some authors to finish fics they’ve left hanging.
Yes!  I did see that EricasTwilight updated one of hers yesterday. I need to start all over with it - I'm not quite sure what is going on in it.  She's had some health issues, so I give her a break.

Welcome! I'm not sure how the list is going. I need to start helping with it. This year has been a little crazy. More work travel than normal. I've gotten very behind on everything. Though I do update my Calibre library still. I'm not sure how well it is updating Google. It's been very frustrating.  There are around 30K stories, so that is part of the problem.

I will say there are less and less updates every month. It is sad. I also check Stars once in a while and AO3, but Fiction pad is difficult to pull from. Is there any author that only posts there?  I should probably make a list.

So, for some reason I love a good sportsward fic (even though real life sports put me to sleep in general). There have been great stories with footballward, soccerward, hockeyward, baseballward, olympicward, etc.etc. But I can't seem to find any basketballward fics. It's odd. Other than Boxing Out
by MeilleurCafe, where Edward's a cop and sort of plays basketball as a hobby, I haven't found any others. Anyone know of any decent ones? Completed is a plus, but beggars can't be choosers.

Fighting temptation   Dobber17   
Bella and Edward are friends and they go to a basketball clinic in Seattle for 2 weeks and Bella is sharing a hotel room with Edward, Mike and Tyler. What happens? Truth or dare, streaking, injuries, jealously, and Bella and Edward get closer.

He shoots, she scores       Witchyvampiregirl   
See how it all started. What did Bella do once she laid eyes on Edward Cullen to make sure he was hers. Watch as shy Bella stops at nothing to get her man.
(I think this is basketball, based on the title. For the life of me, I can’t remember this story  :-\)

Lol! Told ya I don’t remember the story  :-\ :P sorry!

But agree with you, why didn’t many authors consider basketball as sexy/hot. I understand being a quarterback or pitcher may seem to be a more glamorous team position for an athlete. But except for tennis, the common athleteward was in a team sport...so why not basketball? Hmmmm, is it the shorts/uniform?  :P

I guess basketball isn't as sexy.  I think I read a Golfward once, but I find most Sportswards are hockey, football, futball (soccer) or baseball. 

So I was updating Calibre and realized I have over 42K stories in there.  It is crazy.  This is just the complete one.  I need to update my WIPS one also.  There are duplicates, some because they are from multiple sites.  I will normally grab the multiple sites ones in case they write a different story (i.e. more lemons) on a non-fanfic site.  Generally, I just grab from FFN because it is the easiest to grab from and the most popular.

Doesn’t anyone know any fan fictions similar to arranged love by Liverpool fcs. Basically I really want the plot points of Bella being the neglected sibling in her family. And this second plot point isn’t necessary but it would be nice. The second plot point is for Bella to live a secret life that no one knew about similar to the one in arranged live by Liverpoolfcs4.

Hmm, sounds interesting. The only one I can think of off hand was Marriage and Other Catastrophes where Bella, who is the looked down upon younger child of high society's Swans gets married off under threat to top society's Edward Cullen.  Edward still keeps Tanya, his mistress, but it eventually ends up B/E.  You are not allowed to view links.

There are also a few Cinderella retellings,  but I haven't read any of them, though they are on my TBR list.
