2013 has been a big year where my world just keeps on growing…. I started this Blog, got back into writing Poetry, continued my Studies in Nursing, Connected with some amazing people across the five oceans (with some I am hoping to meet face to face in 2014)…. plus some significant people from my past, lost a few dear loved ones who’s journey has left this world…, had a few new life’s born into our family, had a few loved ones had major surgery and illness…..and throughout all of this I’ve danced, sung songs (badly so I’ve been informed), laughed, cried, loved, lost and got back up again!

Words on Twilight Fan Fiction…

Posted on by

image

When I originally heard about the “Twilight Series” I thought it was a movie for teenagers….a few years passed when a friend invited me over for a Movie Night and I watched the first DVD in the Series and became instantly intrigued!

I then went out and purchased the Book and read it straight through….I then had to know what was going to happen next so immediately purchased the remaining books and read the whole Series within a week!!!

The Fourth Movie “Breaking Dawn – Part 1” was due out at the end of that year so after reading all the Books in the Series I also purchased and watched the other DVD’s to the Series!

From there I heard about the Books “Fifty shades of Grey” and how E. L. James had written on this thing called Twilight Fan Fiction – at the time I thought this was an interesting concept, but never looked into it.

I then found and fell in Love with Sylvain Reynard’s Books – “Gabriel’s Inferno & Rapture”,  and Googled him as I wanted to read more of his works……this lead me to Twitter & Goodreads, where the world opened up to a whole new world of very talented people and thus finding out more about Twilight Fan Fiction and many other Authors who started out from there!!!

Some of my Favourities to date are:-

  • E. L. James – Fifty Shades of Grey Triology
  • Sylvain Reynard – Gabriel’s Inferno & Gabriel’s Rapture
  • Alice Clayton – Wallbanger, The Unidentified Redhead & The Redhead Revealed
  • Debra Anastasia – Poughkeepsie, Crushed Seraphim, Bittersweet Seraphim & Shackled
  • Kahlen Aymes – The Future of our Past & Don’t forget to remember me
  • J. M. Darhower – Sempre
  • Sarah M. Glover – Grave Refrain
  • Tara Sivec – A Beautiful Lie, Seductions & Snacks, Futures & Frosting and Troubles & Treats
  • Christina Lauren – Beautiful Bastard & Beautiful Stranger
  • Jennifer Lane – Streamline
  • Morgan & Jennifer Locklear – Exposure
