Extreme Circumstances...the Banner
New World....the Banner
Again this is an older story but I absolutely love it. Enjoy the new banner.
Why Won't Anyone Listen to Me
This story was my first and although I do love it I am don't sure that I love the name anymore. Therefore, I did tow different banners for this one. One with the original title and one with the new title. Enjoy.
New Story Banners
I know, I know, I know.
I should be working on the next chapter of "Extreme Circumstances"; and I do promise one is coming. However, I started playing around with some graphics and a few tutorials and came up with some different banners for my existing stories.
These are a little more traditional to Twilight fanfiction and I figured that they could work better for other blogs that would like to recommend my current stories or any new ones that might be on my mind (and there are new ones).
So I am going to add them but I am going to do them one at a time so that people can pull whichever one that they want.
Finally a Review......Controlled Burn
Controlled Burn
Bella has always joked about marrying Alice's much younger brother so she could be a part of her best friend's family, but now he's all grown up and hot. Bella tries to control the burn for him, but it quickly becomes a raging fire. ExB AH
Rated: T - Romance/Humor - Chapters: 30 - Words: 126,131
To begin with it start different than I expected and Edward was quite younger than I expected. Also there was the fact that where normally Edward and Jacob are enemies because they are trying to get Bella's love in this story they are actually brothers. It doesn't make for a less hostile relationship but it does make for a even funnier one.
I will be honest that I started to stop reading after I found out these two different things but I am so glad that I didn't. Yes it was different than what I was expecting but Bella's inner monalogue is absolutely so funny that it makes the ages and everything else seem to make sense. The story does jump a little through the first few chapters but once you get into the story you stay put and you are actually grateful for the jumping.
I don't want to give to much away but trust me when I say you will be falling off your bed cracking up. It is a must read and a fast read as you will have a hard time walking away. I mean I almost skipped the White Collar to finish it and I never skip White Collar.
Run don't walk to this FanFiction and be sure to leave her some love. Read it HERE.
Ps. Don't forget to check out the outtakes in EPOV. The Fireman: Outtakes from Controlled Burn.
Finally a New Chapter
I know it has been forever AGAIN, but I finally have a new chapter up of "Extreme Circumstances". Go check it out here:
Believe It or Not
I know I have said this before but I am back. At least I believe I am back. This is going to be a short post but not for any huge reason other than I have to go and get some more writing done.
That is right. I am writing again and I have already posted TWO new chapters of Extreme Circumstances on FanFiction. Please go and check them out. We are about to get into the good stuff now.
Okay I am off to get some work done and hopefully get rid of this back pain I have going on. Talk soon.
Sorry That I Left You Hanging
I am so beyond sorry that I have left everyone hanging on my fanfiction stories. I had so many great ideas and yet it seems like when I sit down to write them I can't.
It could be because I am working on an original fiction of my own and yes there are vampires in this. Actually I think they might all be vampires but I haven't really decided yet. It is the revamp (pardon the pun) of my NaNoWriMo novel that I did last November. I still what to finish Extreme Circumstances as well as I have another great idea for the sequel to Beyond the Past that I want to work on but I'm just not sure when I will get a chance.
My goal would be to have both out by the end of March but I don't want to promise and then have everyone waiting and there is nothing. But I do ask that you stay with me and give me a chance to get back in the grove and I will share with you as soon as I have things back together.
As for the Blog, I am in the middle of working on a new layout that I think will be more classic and a little bit more my style than what I have been displaying. That I am hoping to have done by the end of the month if not sooner. I also plan on getting back into an updating schedule since I know that I have been not just fanfiction bad but blogging bad too.
With all this being said and so much work to do I better get going. Talk later.
The Saga
As I mentioned in my previous post, when I get a new movie that is part of a grouping of movies then I like to watch from the beginning until the new movie. With that in mind last night I watched Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse.
It was interesting to watch the progression for the first real time back to back. For instance little Taylor who I absolutely love. He really grew up from the first movie until Eclipse. He by no way looks like the twenty-something man that the character is suppose to portray but he doesn't look as baby faced as he didn't as he was telling Bella that they use to make mud pies together.
The other thing I noticed was that they completely killed the story line of Laurent and Irina. It is never mentioned that he went to live with the Denali's or that they wouldn't come help fight the newborns because Irina wanted revenge on the wolves for killing her mate. As I was missing it I started thinking about Breaking Dawn. How are they going to work in Irina's reason for going to the Volturi? Are they just going to make it about the fact that she things Reneesme is a vampire child? And if they do then what would be her reason for being in the woods to see Bella, Jacob and Reneesme? Without her anger over Laurent then she would have come to the wedding with the rest of her family. I am looking forward to seeing how they handle that in the upcoming two movies.
Lastly there is really no mention of any imprints other than Sam and Emily. Poor Kim and Claire just get got. So will Paul still imprint on Rachel considering they haven't mentioned Jacob having sisters at all and will Claire make a sudden appearance in Breaking Dawn so that it doesn't seems so weird that Jacob just imprinted on this baby? Decisions, Decisions.
I also am curious for how they will handle the ending to Breaking Dawn, Jacob's voice in the middle when the story switches points of view, and the wolves speaking to each other in wolf form. Those are the three things I am really excited for in the next couple of movies. Because if you think about it New Moon and Breaking Dawn are the only two that really have no fight scene at the end and yet they found a way to add a fight between Felix and Edward in New Moon. Will they do the same for Breaking Dawn? Such choices to make. I don't envy Melissa the task of rewriting that.
If you haven't watched them all back to back and you own them then I would strongly suggest it. I started at around seven and ended sometime around one but I did have to stop a couple of times to take my aunt's dogs outside. I am slightly exhausted today but it was totally worth it and if it wasn't for the fact that I have a few things to do today then I would consider doing it again.
The Eclipse Search is On
As so many of you know today is the day that The Twilight Saga: Eclipse comes out on DVD. I am sure that there are those of you that hit the stores at midnight and then there are those like me that decided to go a little later in the day. Either way, let me tell you the crazy of my story.It starts at about 11:36 pm yesterday
evening. I was baking cookies for a cookie exchange that I was going to today. I had no intentions of going to get the movie at midnight; truthfully I didn't even think I would still be up that late at night but I was. See my goal was to go before my one o'clock meeting and be set.
I had looked up all the different stores selling it and although I normally go with Targets exclusive three disk set I was sad to see that they didn't have it this year. This year they had a box set that looked like the only extra to it was the pretty box and the movie still pictures which to me wasn't worth my extra money but I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt and decided to go check it out first.
So there I was getting up to head to Target before my meeting and I get there and of course there are a ton of people standing around trying to decide which copy to get. I quickly see that they don't have the three disk set and decide that since their two disk set looks exactly like the two disk set that Wal-Mart has I would get it there since online it looked to be five dollars cheaper.
I put the movie back and go to my cookie exchange meeting since I don't have time to go to Wal-Mart before the meeting. I tell everyone how I am going to go get the movie after the meeting and how excited I am and why I decided to go to a different store since I was alr
eady at Target. The meeting ends and even through I am tired and cookie full I point my car toward Wal-Mart instead of home.
Yet when I get to Wal-Mart the DVD is not only the same but it is actually three dollars more than it was at Target. It's no where near the fifteen dollar price that had been posted on whatever website I had been on. Now I am stuck with a dilemma. Do I buy it there and go home or do I waste the gas and go back to Target to save all of the same amount that it will probably cost me in gas?
Surprisingly, stupidly, cheaply, or however you want to say it went back to Target. I got the movie and came on home. As much as I wanted to watch it tonight I always watch from the beginning when I get a new movie in any saga. So I can't watch it until I have time to watch from Twilight to Eclipse which probably won't be until next week. The important thing is that I got the movie and now I don't have to worry about finding it as the holidays get into full swing and stores start selling out.
Such a Bad Updater
If I was every single one of you I would beat me up. I have been the worst updater in the world. In my defense I have been working on my National Novel Writing Month Novel and although I didn't get to the end I did write over 100K words for it. I have never written that many words for any one story that I have ever written fanfiction or original. That was very, very exciting to me.
So the goal is to get back into "Extreme Circumstances" this week or early next week and it will probably run through next year so please, please, PLEASE stay with me and I will keep you updated on what's to come.

New Story
Alright, I know that I have been promising a new story for like weeks maybe months but I finally posted the first chapter today. I am really excited about this because it is a little different from anything I have written before.
First, you will notice as the chapter come that it is all in Edward's point of view. We aren't switching characters per chapter but staying with him. This is his story.
Second, this is the first story that I have posted in awhile that wasn't completely written when I put it out there. I will try my best to post on my normal regular schedule of every Thursday but there is a possibility of a late chapter here or there. I will let you know if I foresee any problems.
Third, I will be posting a preview not just here but on the Fictionators blog also. So if you can't make it here every Monday then check there.
That is all for now. Check back Monday for your preview of Chapter 1 and I will talk to everyone soon.
New Design Possible
Hello everyone,
Just wanted to let you all know that there might be a new design for the blog here in the next couple of weeks. I am taking a class tonight that I hope will show me how to redesign our little area and I once I have that info then we should be ready to really get this place jumping.
Also I think I might have a start date for my next story. Look for the prologue to hit the last week of August and then the first chapter to come out the second week of September. I know it's a little bit of a wait but with the holiday and my being out of town I thought that it would be easier to do it this way.
Okay that is all I have for you right now. I might be back to update after my class tonight. Talk later.

Boy I've Been Bad
Okay so I know that I was so excited the last time I was here and talking all my big talk about my new schedule to update and how I was going to share so much in the next couple of weeks and how great things were going to be. Then what did I do? I went off and didn't share anything. I posted maybe two more times according to my schedule and nothing more. How awful am I?
And the sad part is that I can't even say that it was because I was busy writing. Yes I've written a little more of the story that was supposed to be out last week but not nearly enough in my opinion to post it. I want to be able to keep my updates almost the same but at the rate I'm writing it won't be out until next year.
With that in mind, I am going to try to lock myself away this weekend and really focus on getting some solid work done so that I can have something out next week. Wish me luck and I will talk with ya'll later.

A Quick Teaser for Upcoming Story
Alright I know that I have been promising a new story for a while but I am giving you a little something, something for you. It's not a big something but I think it might get you a little happy.
I finally have a title and a small synopsis for you.
"Extreme Circumstances"
When Edward finds himself strapped in a new reality he doesn't know what to think or how to get back. Yet as he finally gets ins biggest wish, to hear Bella's thoughts, he is forced to watch as all he cherishes is threatened. Will he make it back to Bella before it's to late?
So there you go. I am hoping the first chapter will be up by the end of the first week of August. or at the latest the second week.
Okay so I will talk to you all soon.
Getting Ideas
Alright everyone I have some ideas for this blog but the most important one I think I have so far is a schedule for updating. I know that the last month has been absolutely awful. Not only have I barely written anything but I haven't updated either. In all fairness I have explained a lot of it and another reason was that I was thinking about moving my blog to Wordpress but decided to stay here for the moment. Anyway, if something comes up where I do end up moving anywhere I will be sure to let you know first and foremost. However this post isn't about that.
This is about my schedule.
Okay so look for updates on Mondays and Wednesdays for right now. I am thinking Mondays will be my review and teaser dates and Wednesdays will be my write whatever is going on dates. Now none of that is written in stone yet so don't hold it against me if next week I update on Thursday and write about The Twilight Saga: Eclipse since I haven't done my review for it yet but I have some things to say for sure.
So for now I will see you next Monday and Wednesday and I will hopefully get mo
re new story information up soon.
