What do you think campers? I kinda like the Bella one, ngl.

Hey There Campers! In honor of tomorrow's hallowed holiday of hijinks, I'd like to hear about everyone's plans for April Fool's Day.

I like to do cute things for my young children. A few years ago, I made fake chicken nuggets (bananas) and fries (breadsticks) for my children's breakfast.

This year, I'm making grilled Cheese sandwiches (poundcake with yellow frosting) with apple fries.

 I'm also going to get my husband by sabotaging his deodorant. This works if it's the solid kind of deodorant. I'm going to scrape out some of the deodorant, creating a space. Then, fill it with cream cheese. I can't wait to see him smear cream cheese on his pits.

These tricks are pretty tame compared to some. Tell me campers: Got any great ideas for April Fool's? Ever been a victim of some crazy pranks? Please share!

EDIT: Ranger wtvoc approved this campfire.

Side note: WTF is going on with the front page?! It's pissing me off.

At this point I'd like to ask everyone how they feel about the golden family. Quite frankly, they are REALLY grinding on my last nerves as of late. I remember reading twilight and thinking they seemed pretty cool for a completely fictional family. Things bothered me of course, namely the ridiculous amount of control alice has over the family thanks to her "power". I think many can agree that even in the books it's stretched to extremes here and there. fanfiction wise it's like a free for all.

But i was able to shrug it off. Now, it's like I almost want to flounce the minute the rest of the cullens are pulled into a story. It's not that I need ExB although that's my preference. It's the lack of actual support they give. The pointless ways they twist and turn whatever relationship they're involved in. Nevermind the awful advice and meddling which seem to be a staple now. I don't know what the deal is but i just can't stand them.

So how about it. Are you still on the cullen train or is enough, enough?

Which cliches about the cullens piss you off and what cliches do you like?

"Robbie & Cecilia: Come Back to Me - Atonement" by stwabewy

Bones returns Thursday!! wink, wink, WTVOC

This is published on May 4

I don't know what to do with myself. This year is looking better and better by the second.

We will have plenty of things to talk about in the future months. But, Lettuce discuss now too. Did I miss anything? What are you looking foward to?

So, this week my editor reminded me that I don’t always have to travel or hike long distances to find a good story and a person worth interviewing.  Sometimes, we can find interesting people where we least expect them.  Close to home.  Or at least… close to homeroom.  I decided to turn my mad interviewing skills right toward the hallways here at Forks High.  In fact, I grabbed the first girl I saw when I stepped out of my editor’s office.  The following is my interview with a random teenage student. 
 

---

The interview is posted in the first comment, and I totally have to do extra-freakin-credit for missing the deadline, which totally sucks, because I had it done yesterday! In fact, I had it done on Sunday, but I forgot to come here and put it up yesterday because I got distracted by those pictures of Robert Pattinson in the weird hat. I mean, what is that about? I can't decide if this movie is gonna be the hottest thing ever or a tragi-comedy, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, click through to the awesome interview.

grease

or grease 2

or just try to defend yourself if you don't think grease 2 is the worst movie of all time, as i maintain

i'm lookin' at you, @happydorkjc and @I_heart_the_doc

 Hi all...

Does anyone know of any fics where Edward CAN read Bella's mind?

I think it would be interesting...

What songs feature your name?

I wanna hear 'em.  And if you google it, and come up with nothing, show us a song with a friends name or a twi-cast members name.

For my darling Erica aka Wolvesnvamps:

ERICA! yer the girl that i need!

And for Jennfly:

jenny, jenny, who can i turn to?

I'm not sure how many of you actually care about this.  After the news broke yesterday about the Bree Tanner novella, I heard a collective WTF?! Followed by a few "who the hell cares", a couple "what about Midnight Sun", and even 1 or 2 "umm who was Bree?" 

But apparently SMeyer feels this is very important knowledge, and viola! -- she publishes her own fan-fiction a Novella.

MTV.com has an interesting take on it all....

It seems a bit surprising that Meyer would choose to write a novella about a character who shows up for such a short period of time in the novels. Don't worry about hauling out your copy of "Eclipse" to find the surprisingly few pages Tanner appears on, because we did all the dirty work for you. Here is a cheat sheet telling you everything you need to know about the short-lived Bree Tanner.

An "Eclipse" Exclusive:
If you've only been watching the "Twilight" movies or read the first two books, don't be shocked that you have no idea who Bree Tanner is. In fact, don't be upset if you read "Eclipse" and still have no idea who she is. Tanner is a character introduced a startlingly short amount of time before she dies in "Eclipse" and could be considered (to everyone except Stephenie Meyer) to be a throwaway character.

A Short Life:
Tanner is only introduced 10 pages before she is killed off in Victoria's war against the Cullens and the Quileute werewolf tribe. However, of all the newborn vampires discussed in "Eclipse," Tanner was one of the few to be named and introduced to the readers. Unfortunately, it didn't take very long after she was turned into a vampire for her to meet her end ... again.

Dramatic Death Scene:
It turns out Tanner isn't the best newborn vampire among them all, and she isn't a big fan of killing innocents and drinking their blood. She tries to join forces with the Cullen clan and adapt to their "vegetarian vampire" lifestyle, but ends up being killed by Felix on the orders of Jane, a member of the Volturi guard (played by Dakota Fanning in the film), in the final battle.

Newborn Vampires:
A big part of the story in "Eclipse" surrounds the bad-girl vampire Victoria creating an army of newborn vampires in the Seattle area so she can wage war on Edward Cullen, who killed her beau James way back in "Twilight." When a vampire is first created, it is at its strongest, so Victoria went around recklessly creating vampires so she could have an extremely powerful army behind her. Tanner was just one of the fatalities.

Seattle:
The trouble with the first-person perspective of "The Twilight Saga" is that the reader can't read what is happening firsthand beyond what Bella Swan sees with her own eyes. Much like "Midnight Sun" gave (some) of the details behind what happened elsewhere in "Twilight," "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" will show what happened in Seattle with Victoria during "Eclipse." But since much of "Eclipse" is devoted to the characters wondering what exactly was going on in Seattle, seeing it through the eyes of a secondary character like Tanner is a smart companion piece to the book.

Unseen First Life:
Unfortunately for Tanner, the world will never know what happened to her before she became a vampire. She was introduced into "Eclipse" after she was a newborn and "The Short Second Life" will start off the same way. There is a chance of flashbacks telling about her life before becoming a vampire, but the way Meyer described the novella on her Web site made it seem as though Tanner was the narrator solely so the reader could see what went on in Seattle, not to learn her past.

In The Movies:
"Eclipse" director David Slade at least had more of a heads-up than fans and retailers did about "The Short Second Life," and he cast 14-year-old Jodelle Ferland in the role. Slade and Ferland, as well as Bryce Dallas Howard (Victoria) and Xavier Samuel (Riley), were given advance copies of the book to read so they could have a complete knowledge of what went on in Seattle for the film.

ehh.

Here is another still from the 3rd Season of True Blood. Man, I love Eric Northman, but I hate his hair. Please HBO keep his hair blond. With all the changes I wonder if he will be a red head next season.

And here is your weekly poster. Isn't it great? Tell me who is your VILF? Besides Edward of course, that is given.

Okay, please don't laugh.

Seth and Leah and I have been kinda talking a lot about this website for the past few days. Like, it's really pretty cool, you know? Leah really digs it, but she's kinda pouting because you ladies are all into reading the fan fiction, and there isn't a lot of fan fiction about her. She feels unloved.

Seth makes fun of her. They give me a headache.

But to be honest, It gives me a stomach ache to read your summaries about the stories. This one is about how hot Emmett is. That one is about how hot Edward is. The other one is about how hot Carlisle is... I mean, seriously?

Where the hell are all the WOLF stories?

This Forest has SOME wolf stories but we want MORE!

You want HOT, check us out! 108 degrees over here, ladies!

Where are the best wolf writers? Where are the best stories about Leah and Seth (and me?)

We've decided to have a vote. You guys get the word out, get the writers here, get their stories here, and then Leah's gonna make a poll where we (and you) can all vote on the BEST WOLF STORIES.

You can include stories about Sam and Paul and Quil and Embry and the other guys, of course.

Ok, the kstew wig isn't THAT bad. 

HOW DO THESE MAKE YOU FEEL?

Someone was kind enough to format a picture for me to ADF avatar size specs. However, it's in PNG format, not a JPEG. My computer doesn't give me any other option to save it as. ADF will only let me upload a JPEG. Does anyone know how I can convert it from one to the other?

John, are you around anywhere?

I'm a total techno retard, can somebody tell me how to search for a story by title if I don't know the author?  Thanks so much!

So this isn't the first time ive asked for these kinds of fics...

 I want a preggo Bella.

Idc bout the specifics (AU AH whatevahhh)...

WARNING SCERRY STUFF AHEDD:

I know I really shouldn't be doing this since I have about 15 updates sitting in my inbox right now, but I want Vampward. It seems all the good fics now-a-days are AH and even though I love my AH fics, I need some vampires in the mix sometimes too. So, could you help a girl out and rec me some vampire fics?

Oh and so I don't run for the hills I need the following:

Canon pairings

And I don't care who dies or what evil spawn is born either

Also, Twilight mythology with the sparkling or burning to ashes in the sun I don't care. I've read it both ways. Just gimme a vamp fic.

For you're time:

Come inside to see more.
