A note about my stories:

I have to confess, I don't get to all my reviews any more. So to those I don't get to:
Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to read my stories, your reviews are great!
And of course, all things twilight belong to Stephenie Meyer, no copyright infringement is intended with any of my stories.

And now for this commercial interruption:

I was recently propositioned by the linguistically limber and eminently irreverent goldenmeadow to co-write a piece for the Les Femmes Noires contest. The resulting soon-to-be-released ic, entitled 'The Bride of Edward Cullen', has turned out to be dark, sarcastic, and in places, painfully funny! Watch out for its impending arrival on our collaborative schizophrenic posting site: SinisterSisterhood.

Printable copies and kindle/mobipocket compatible copies of stories will be available on mediafire.com (all absolutely FREE, of course). What's currently available:

Dark Side of the Moon - Only two chapters left
Since Stephenie Meyer will be doing twilight from Edward's POV, I thought I would take a stab at new moon, EPOV.

Thanks to everyone who's come along on this sad, sad journey!

There's a discussion thread for the story over on twilighted.net

THANKS SO MUCH TO ALL MY FABULOUS READERS! I'm blown away by the response to this story!
COMING SOON: Annotated PDF and Mobi/kindle versions of Dark Side!


Seduction -
Chapter 20 "Compromise" of eclipse from EPOV. Thanks to JAustenlover for her winning bid in the SupportStacie auction.

Fruit Cots and English Cucumbers -
A crazy little drabble about educating Esme. Just a silly little thing!

With Great Restraint -
A Breaking Dawn missing moment. What was Edward doing while Bella spoke to Jacob at the reception? Dancing with Tanya...and discussing his honeymoon! Another Edward POV one-shot!

A Changing Heart - Winner on The Twilight Awards for Best Angst/Drama AND Best Missing Moment
Another Breaking Dawn one-shot. What Edward may have experienced during Bella's silent transformation. This covers the part of her change before she became aware of Edward near her. Edward has a lot going on in his brain all the time, especially during these traumatic hours.

Music Lessons - Winner on The Twilight Awards for Best Daddy Edward
Breaking Dawn is out - and I was as stunned as everyone else. After the second reading I was more comfortable with the story, though I really missed Edward - in Book 3 especially. I really wanted to see more bonding between Edward and his daughter, and this quick one-shot was born. Enjoy!

Brotherhood -
Brotherhood is my first co-writing project. I am so lucky to be working with the incredibly smart and marvelously funny LindaRoo on this story - and it has been a hilarious ride! Go hunting with the Cullen boys, and learn that yes, vampire boys will be vampire boys.

Totality: Spontaneous Combustion -
UPDATED 4/6/08
I've written a bit of Midnight Sun, which is twilight from Edward's point of view, and I started thinking about some scenes from new moon and eclipse from Edward's point of view. So as a place to post these few scenes I'm preparing two stories: Totality and Dark Side of the Moon. Originally all the stories were under one umbrella, Dark Side of the Moon, but when I started on the new moon stories, I found that there was more than just a few anecdotes for new moon in me. Right now I only plan to do a few scenes from eclipse and put them in Totality. It will be a collection of stories from Edward's point of view, and I will update it with new scenes as I write them, rather than publishing each short story separately.

The first installment is: Spontaneous Combustion - the bedroom scene from Chapter 8, "Temper" in eclipse in Edward's voice. Thanks to psymom and MarcyJ for great betas from two great authors.

Verbal Engagement -
This story started out as an extra to first light, but it seems to stand alone just fine. The story is the continuation of the last page in eclipse, when Edward put the ring on Bella's finger. Bella and Edward head off to tell Charlie and Renee about their plans... Another great beta by vnfan - go check out her work!

The Souvenir -
This is my first foray into writing to a given topic, rather than what just occurs to me. sillybella's President's Day challenge was to write about a Cullen rubbing elbows with someone real and famous (and dead). Since she stresses staying 'in canon' (true to SM's characters and the 'real' world) I found her challenge very appealing. Edward was still stuck in my brain, so I followed where he led me. I was surprised exactly where that was - as I hope you will be as well. And as for the 'real' part of the story, here are my sources for The Souvenir:

Phoenix Rising -
This is another Midnight Sun - like story, namely it parallels part of twilight from Edward's point of view. Phoenix Rising traces two chapters in twilight, 'Hide and Seek,' when Edward arrives in Phoenix to find Bella gone; and 'The Angel,' when Edward finds Bella after being bitten by James. Thanks to psymom, a fantastic author and beta.

Drastic Measures -
One of the popular discussions on the forums is about how Bella might be changed under dire circumstances, and how Jacob would be involved. So I started thinking what that might be like and came up with Drastic Measures. Rather than re-write a breaking dawn type scenario, though, I chose to explore this possibility in the form of an alternate ending to eclipse. Just one other possible way Bella gets bitten...
My beta was the most excellent vnfan - thanks so much!

As Bella Sleeps -
My first Midnight Sun-like one-shot is out. Thanks so much to heartbroken1 for my first beta experience - it definitely improved the piece!
I was asked if I would write a complete Midnight Sun, and alas the answer is no. I don't know Edward well enough in the first half of the book to hear his story - I'm really looking forward to the 'real' thing.

first light
This is my version of breaking dawn - and it is truly a fairy tale ending. This was my first fanfic, and truly my first real creative writing project ever. I didn't understand the beta process, or the 'post it slowly, get more reviews' technique - I was such a rookie! Sorry for the errors - someday I may revisit/rewrite it...

WINNER: When Dawn Breaks Award (best post-Eclipse fic)
