We would love to have your help again!!

 

Last year I donated a one shot to the Fandom for Luekemia and Lymphoma Society-Fandom4LLS fundraiser. Our amazing and wonderful fandom raised $5,400 for this most deserving cause. We'd like to beat that amount this year and hope that all of you, our fantastic readers, will help us do that. All it takes is a $5.00 donation to get the entire compilation. So far this year over 40 Twilight authors have signed up to contribute to the compilation, including many who signed up last year and some new ones as well. And for those of you out there who are Hunger Games fans too, they have also expanded the compilation to include those authors and stories as well. My-Bella and myself are both donating Twilight one-shots again this year and hope you can help us with this extremely worthy cause.

SIB, chapter 6, pictures

I was really surprised by the number of items you get in one of these things. According to the family member I got it from, it doesn't taste half bad either.

Edward's shirt that he so sweetly gave to Bella. Hmm, I wonder if he'll ever get it back. LOL

Chapter 6, Fatherly Advice...

“Dad—” 

“Let me finish first please,” he requested, while holding his hand up, cutting me off before I could finish. 

I nodded and waited for him to go on.

“You’ve only known each other a few weeks. And I know how easily things can get out of hand. But if what the two of you have is meant to be more than a summer romance, then it will be worth the wait. So are you still on board with my conditions?”

 “Yes. I was only going to say, I had no intention of taking things that far while we are still here. I won’t lie and say I don’t find her incredibly attractive, or that that thought has never crossed my mind. But I would never disrespect her like that, Dad.”

 Hmm, I wonder what Carlisle's conditions are and if him and Edward could be talking about what Bella told Edward about herself?  

See you on Friday with the full chapter an all the answers.

Some disturbing yet very important news

I wanted to take a minute to talk about something that may affect many of us in the very near future if it hasn't already. 

Literally thousands of stories with mature content are being pulled from FanFiction.net left and right with no warning whatsoever or without giving to the authors the opportunity to fix or remove the material in question. 

I have even heard of several authors loosing their stories forever because the only copy they had of them is the one that existed on FF. I know it would be devastating to myself if that were to happen to me.

Many of us authors and readers are taking part in a boycott of FanFiction.net this weekend, Friday and Saturday. FanFiction relies on what's known as click advertising to fund their site. By not gong to the site at all, this hurts them by them not getting money for us simply visiting the site. That is how click advertising works, I am sure you have all seen those adds that are at the top of all the pages we open on the site.

So if you are interested in participating you need to not, only not sign in, but also refrain form going to FanFiction in any way at all. I know it may be difficult to hold back from reading any stories that you may be waiting on to update, but waiting a day or two to read them is certainly better than having them removed all together.

What we are hoping to accomplish is to get the powers that be at FanFiction to require an additional login for an story containing mature content. It is something that would be very simple for them to do and this would go a long way in helping to make sure that those underage are not reading material that is not suited for them.

It's totally up to you whether you decide to participate or not. I just wanted to make you all aware of the situation. I also wanted to let you know that should my stories suddenly disappear, they are all also available to read over on The Writers Coffee Shop. My pen name is the same over there as it is here.  

The link to my stories on that site is, http://www.thewriterscoffeeshop.com/library/viewuser.php?uid=868.

Thanks for being the amazing, wonderful readers that you are!! I feel so very fortunate to have all of you reading my stories.

SIB, chapter 5 picture

I don't know about all of you, but when I look at this picture, I wonder how Bella didn't take him up on his offer in the last chapter. :)
