Author has written 12 stories for Twilight.

About Me: Let's see...I like Twilight! I bet that was no surprise! Even my teenage sons like Twilight. I guess the only one in my house that doesn't, would be my husband...the Grinch! Oh BTW, I am totally team Edward...if you couldn't tell. I never have been much of a dog person...

Where I like to Hang Out: You can also find me over on the blog Random Nothingness: http://u2shay.blogspot.com You can also follow me on Twitter (I'm u2shay there too!)...I give updates, previews, drabbles, music discussions...you never know! Come say, HI!


*About a The Best Things in Life Are Unexpected UPDATE!* :)


Hey guys, I'm working upwards of 70 hours a week right now, so I really haven't had the time to work on TBT, but it is always on my heart and mind. I'm slowly plugging away at it, and as soon as I have something I'm happy with, you will have your chapter.


Thank you for being patient with me.

~Shay


Note about my Twilight Fan Fictions:

Okay, after reading some fanfics lately that have drawn me in only to leave me terribly disappointed (or disgusted), I feel it is only fair to do what I wish these authors had done for me. I’m going to give you some specifics about the types of things you will and will not read in my stories, so you are not wasting your time with something you aren’t going to like. Fair? I thought so! :D


I write two types of stories: one-off crack fics and multi-chapter stories in which I turn Twilight canon on its head. At this point in time, I only write AUs. Edward and Bella tend to have children in my multi-chapter stories, but no worries, I will never write them having a baby in the way SM did. *shudders* I despise Jacob Black, and I am not nice to him in my stories. I don't write scenarios in which Jake and Bella have been "together" in any way, shape, or form. I like canon pairings for the most part - but there is just a little part of me that believes Demetri and Angela should have ended up together. :)


I abhor PWP, so do not expect sex to overwhelm plot. I tend toward fluffy, comedic romances, but on occasion I dabble in angst - hence the story Fate Leads the Willing. Expect lots of meaningful conversation between Edward and Bella in my multi-chapter stories, and expect me to twist canon into a pretzel. :)

What you won't read in my stories: cheating, adultery, kink, fetishes, poly, slash, wall to wall smut. Sorry, but I'm just not going there...


Stories I Beta:

First Blush: The Long Way Home What do you do when your heart's desire is hurting and alone? How do you heal her from afar? His words were the match striking fire across her heart, but to save her, he first has to save himself. Captured and held by an enemy, he fights to survive for her. Alice/Jasper WWII

VirginiaMay: An Immortal WishIs a young girl who mysteriously awakens from a coma the key to giving Edward back his soul?

*Note: I am not taking beta requests at this time. :)
