Today’s post by lexiecullen17 is about a very sensitive subject. I (Saluki) give her so much credit for writing the post, because I know there are many women who wouldn’t have the courage to share such a personal story with the world. However, I know that because of her courage, there are other women who [...]

I think I’m just going to keep on with the topic of Twilight. A few reasons for that. First, because it really does seem that it’s what people want to read about, but also because it’s just so easy to find things to discuss about it. Being the pop culture phenomenon of the day, it’s [...]

Before I go any further, I’m going to remind you this feature is NC-17. So make sure you’re 18 before reading. Hello there, WW readers, it’s me again, SusanAshlea, the one who can’t write lemons. But can I? The last time I spoke with you, I discussed my frustrations over my inability to write the [...]

I haven’t been a part of many fandoms. Sure, I’ve followed certain actors and signed up on fan forums in the past, but until I discovered Twilight, I never considered myself part of a community. Many people that I run into scoff at my association with the Twilight fandom. They think it is a bunch [...]

Hey there kiddos, SusanAshlea here. Today was my day to post Wicked Wednesday, and I didn’t realize it was actually Wednesday until about an hour ago. I walked around all day thinking it was Tuesday, checking the blog and wondering “who’s day is it to post?” Yup, that’s me. I have the entire article ready [...]

So here’s a new one. The Twilight Saga is full of stereotypes and sexism. Yeah, I guess it’s not really new, is it? Ever since I read the series in 2008, I’ve been reading discussions, debates, even arguments that the series perpetuates stereotypes – like a female doing all the cooking – and it is [...]

So, in light of recent events, I’m keeping this week’s ‘State of the Fandom’ a little bit on the fluffy side. I thought, ‘Hmm, what can I write about that will result in no one getting upset,” and came to the conclusion that it’s time to interview Edward. So, without further ado, the star of [...]

Why we validate… by SusanAshlea I have always loved writing, but I have never considered myself a writer. Sure, I wrote short stories in high school, and I got a kick out of writing satirical essays, but that was ages ago. I graduated from high school in 1996 and I think the last short story [...]

I love a good story. I especially love a good and completed story so today I thought I would talk about the pain that sprouts from starting a fic that goes unfinished or gets pulled without warning. Before I go any further I just want to make a couple of things plain. I understand that [...]

I’m a non-writer in a writer’s world. A year ago, I didn’t know what fanfiction was. Hell, I didn’t even know fanfiction existed. I was so pleasantly surprised when I found all the good stories about Twilight that were out there, especially since it meant I could continue my obsession about the saga, but I [...]

by Saluki I volunteered to write the recap for the new episode of Vampire Diaries that aired tonight. However, I noticed that the last episode hadn’t been reviewed. In lieu of a full review, I’m going to share the recap from tvguide.com to refresh us all on how the show left off.

So wow… What an interesting weekend. Drama, drama, drama. So I let it be my inspiration this week and went back to the stories I read when I first found the Twilight fandom… before all the drama. I dove into my favorites looking for the completed fics that turned me into a Twi-Hard. So if [...]

I’ve decided on a name for my new bi-monthly column: “The Proud PG-13.” In each column, I will be featuring a story that holds a rating of PG-13 or below. This idea came to me one day when I was having a fit about not being able to write lemons. Then I realized it’s okay [...]

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. day in the US, and in honor of this, Bears has decided to forgo his regular column in favor of posting Dr. King’s most famous and world changing speech. It’s worth a watch if you have never seen it before:

I (Saluki) felt like posting something tonight. I am a RPattz girl, so I decided to dig up a couple of interviews. Two of my favorite are his appearances on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. I love when Ellen asks Rob who is taking care of him…

Apparently, I started something with my post on Monday. First, I need to say, I was in no way talking about the Gazebo. I have never heard of the Gazebo. Secondly, maybe I need to change the beginning of my feature, but I have explained in the past that our top five list is just [...]
