[BellaAndEdward] Fic Of The Day -- Jan 17

 

I'm in the middle of reading this one. I almost gave up on it because at the beginning there is so much angst and very little Bella/Edward interaction. But I stuck with it and I'm on about chapter 17 now and glad I stayed with it.  More info below the summary to help you decide if you want to read it.

Taking You Home           by Hope4more
What's another loss in Bella's life? Everything. Only she now has two people depending on her to pull them through. Will Wyoming hold everything she never knew she wanted?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5844476/1/


Bella and Jasper are siblings. Their (unamed) parents died when they were young. However, Charlie/Renee are neighbors of Alice/Jasper in Wyoming. Alice, Emmett and Edward are siblings with Carlisle and Esme as their parents. In this story, Carlisle and Esme are not nice people.

Bella and Edward don't really begin interacting until chapter 10 or 11, prior to that there is A LOT of angst due to the deaths of Alice and Jasper, which results in Bella becoming guardian to their 2 small children.

Re: [BellaAndEdward] Favorite author -- sandyk199

 

Thanks.  I have been meaning to read some of her works.

I really enjoyed a story called "Take The Cake" by sandyk199 (in which Bella is the owner of a bakery-coffee shop and Edward is a well known author.) She has pulled the story since I read it because she was changing the names in order to get it published, so in the mean time, I am suggesting some of her one-shot stories and another that is a "three shot". All quite good in my opinion.



In A Flash              » by sandyk199
A series of set-backs has Edward thinking he's in for the day from hell, but it's surprising how a chance discovery can turn things around in an entirely unexpected way ...
Rated: T - Romance/Friendship - Chapters: 1

Tasting Notes              » by sandyk199
To get a break from the city Bella works at a distillery in Napa Valley. Introducing people to different tastes is one thing, but what will she do when her heart is introduced to someone new? All she knows is that wherever you start there's no going back.

Undertow              » by sandyk199
Bella likes her life the way things are, especially her morning swims at the beach. What she doesn't bet on is a few elderly matchmakers, a cunning waitress, a handsome Good Samaritan and a sea that always provides.

Re: [BellaAndEdward] about my FOTD postings

 



Yeah, that can be a bummer. :(
 
I'm more of a short story type of writer, myself. Sure, I've done a couple of series that have been four parts. And I've done a little longer pieces with collaborators, but my muse is a short story/poem, type of muse. But rushing something that could and maybe should be 20 chapters, isn't right, IMHO, either. And sometimes with 20 chapters, the fanfic writer can fall into the pit known as inconsistancy too---just like series can on tv. Nothing worse than a show that you used to love going down in flames because of bad writing. Case in point---Smallville. Case in point of one that hasn't---Castle. : ) Prolific Peggy. PS: Course, there's the problem of putting too much into the story---one lesson I have been taught---less is more.

One thing that I think makes a story "ok" when it could be "great" is when it feels rushed -- the plot from the summary sounds good, but the author is clearly impatient to get to the good stuff and has them going from the first introduction to moving in and getting married within 7 or 8 chapters, instead of stretching it out to 20 chapters or so.

Re: [BellaAndEdward] OT: Twitter vs. Facebook/Myspace

 



Well, I have Twitter---started it because I could follow a friend, some actors, and some authors too. I haven't been there for a while but I can tell you, 5 minutes after getting it, I went private because of the amount of questionable people wanting to read your stuff. It helps that only people who follow you can read your responses---I love the privacy of it that way.
 
I've heard good things about Facebook but not so much about Myspace. However, like Myspace, Facebook, or Twitter, you can get fakers. For example---supposedly Rob has a Twitter account---not. So, you have several thousand people following somebody who they think is Rob. I also have a friend who said they talked to a celebrity all time by chat---I believe it was MySpace. But I got the feeling it wasn't them since who has the time to talk to people all the time if you are a busy actor.
 
I guess my picking Twitter was not only to talk to my friend and follow actors and writers---it's just much easier to use and you don't feel like you have to be there everyday to update things. With MySpace or Facebook, I would feel that way. Hard enough to keep up with lists---you know what I mean. : )
 
With all three you just have to remember one thing---keep it as private as possible. Less is more, in other words. Hope that helps. : ) Prolific Peggy.

I have a question about Twitter for those of you who have one.  Basically the question is "why". I mean what does it do that either Facebook or Myspace can't do? Don't all three have the option of being done via computer or phone?
