Megsly had the opportunity to see Muse in Atlanta tonight. They kicked off their North American tour in support of their most recent album, The Resistance. She was nice enough to let us share some of her pictures. If you all have the chance to see one of their shows, you should definitely check them [...]

For this edition of Author Spotlight, SusanAshlea and I interviewed one of our favorite authors, as well as an all around awesome person, il-bel-mondo (IBL).  IBL is the author of a awesome fic called A Silver Tongue.  I was hooked on AST from the first chapter and squee every time I get an email update.  [...]

with SarahBella This week for Fic Rec Friday I’m starting with a rated R fic that is one of my all time faves-  Something Other by Unofficial Cullen. In this fic, Bella is not a human or a vampire – she’s ‘Something Other’.   She is passing as a normal human teenager at Forks High School, [...]

That is the question by Megsly To write or not to write…. SusanAshlea and I tend to have some pretty awesome conversations, we have no problem finding something to chat about, and usually…it’s rather random, especially our conversations that focus on fan fiction. This latest one that stuck out in my memory revolved around authors [...]

Our first fan fiction challenge went so well, that we decided to jump right back in and start another one.  Without further ado, we give you… The Vampire Diaries Fan Fiction Challenge! The Vampire Diaries is currently on hiatus until the middle of March.  In the meantime, we really need a fix.  So, we are [...]

with Saluki First things first, if you’re not old enough to buy porn or vote, this post isn’t for you. Meesh took Wicked Wednesdays on a wicked left turn last week, so I’m gonna jerk the steering wheel way to the right today.  While we work on getting a crop of new authors lined up [...]

It’s no secret that I love to read.  It’s also no secret that I love the vampire/paranormal genre.  However, my love for reading expands beyond just one genre.  I read mysteries, historical fiction, drama, and even a bit of non-fiction  (Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin is a must read). I’m a veritable reading [...]

Hello again readers! Today’s edition of The Proud PG-13 features bonnysammy, the author of one of my favorite AU stories at the moment: Lost Cause. Lost Cause tells the story of Bella, a 30-something woman who one day wakes up in the woods as a teenager, not knowing who she is, where she is or [...]

A Fic Rec by lexiecullen17 What you should be reading right now… As I’ve told you all before, I read more fic than anyone else I know.  Seriously.  The fact that I have time for anything else truly baffles my mind.  Despite the hefty amount of fics already on my plate, I have recently started [...]

The winners in the Love Spelled Backwards is Love fan fiction challenge: Readers Choice: Lake Monsters by The Sound and The Fury Judges Choice: Rectified by bonnysammy Congratulations to both winners.  It was a close race on both categories and we would [...]

Dark Fever, by Karen Marie Moning reviewed by SusanAshlea I read 3 of the 4 books that currently comprise the Fever Series last spring. I read them back to back in a matter of days. Then, when the 4th book was released in August, I couldn’t wait to get my grubby hands on it. I [...]

by SusanAshlea The word of Twilight fan fic is vast, huge, and daunting to the new partaker.  When I discovered fan fic, there was something like 30,000 members on Twilighted.net.  That was a little over a year ago.  Right now, there are over 100k members.  Even MVF has managed to garner almost 800 members in [...]

By Jules I know Eclipse has yet to grace the silver screen, but with all the films for the first three books completed, I am desperate for confirmation about the final installment. Before I get into this, I should note that I am aware that there are some of you out there vehemently against the [...]

The Host, by Stephenie Meyer reviewed by Meesh You get two posts from me tonight. I took a nap in the middle of my last post and lost my train of thought and I’m just not happy with what I wrote. Rather than delete my other post, because I do like the idea I was [...]

Female Character Discussion by Meesh We’ve spent quite a bit of time talking about the male side of the vampire world. What it is about males that make them so attractive. Why we fall in love with them – or at least the idea of them. But what about the females in the world of [...]

We are out of Wicked Wednesdays authors, so all y’all lucky people get to read another rambling by me. If you would prefer to keep Wicked Wednesdays truly wicked, and not filled with my silliness, we have a sign up form for authors to get on board. So if you want to write a one [...]

Hello all, SusanAshlea here. I’m coming forward as a self-proclaimed Black Dagger Brotherhood enthusiast, and general J.R. Ward fan. I’m also going to admit that I might possibly be the only BDB/J.R. Ward fan who is not looking forward to Lover Mine. Why? That’s easy. I can tell you why in one word: Xhex. I [...]

Black Dagger Brotherhood: Xhex Character discussion by Meesh Yesterday there was a small exchange on Twitter between Sue and me (a kind exchange, nothing tense), as well as a few other BDB fans, about Xhex, one of the female characters in the Black Dagger Brotherhood. No one seems to be able to stand her except [...]
