About Me

I'm a tad obsessed with Twilight (just ask the RL boyfriend), but I swear it's not as bad as when I first finished the books. I don't see myself as much of a writer, mainly because I know there are better ones out there, but I needed a place where I could get the ideas that take up residence in my mind and keep me up at night out.

I like to read all things Bella & Edward, just as long as Edward isn't too much of a man whore and has some redeeming characteristics left. I also like Pack Fics that center on the imprinting process, Bella/Jasper, Edward/Jasper, and Edward/Carlisle. (Yes, slash... don't judge until you read a really good one. Then you'll understand the love for it. OR just watch the scene in the Twilight movie where Carlisle bites Edward. The hotness... there are no words.)

You can usually find me lurking around the Temptation forum, my Twitter, or gchat on christineisageek@gmail.com.

1) Highly recommend visiting The Lazy, Yet Discerning Ficster.

Some lovely ladies and Twilight fanfic authors (Smellyia, Angel, Emibella, and Angstgoddess003) have started a blog for unknown/underappreciated/underdog authors, to highlight genres and subgenres, provide established authors with a way to give back to the community via their own 'hidden treasure' fics, and to have articles pertinent to community, recs, and fandom in general.

(It's her first fic and shows a lot of promise. Rec'd on Lion & Lamb, Twilight Enabler and The Gazebo LJ communities!)

- 'The Boy In The Cafeteria' by Helliex88
(AU/Twilight era, but Bella is a boy. SO excited about this one. But it is slash, so reader beware. Nominated for the Indie Awards! Currently on hiatus.)

- 'If I Know You' by JeNnNn (Now Complete)
(It's her first fic, too. I love the banter between the guys once the story goes back a couple years.)

- 'If This Is What You Want' by JeNnNn

It's anonymous, which is half the fun. All the gifts are now up for reading and viewing. (And I loved my gift.) The Winter Twilight Gift Exchange is currently under way.
