When New Moon came out on DVD, my husband rented it. (This dates back to before Blockbuster got killed by Redbox). I had no interest in a vampire movie and I was mad at him. Then I watched it and I was hooked. The next day, I went to the library and checked out the entire series, reading it in a week. I had to know if Jacob kissed Bella. I was in love with that story line.

After seeing Eclipse in the theater, I was left with this sense of wanting. I felt like the story was unfinished. I wanted to know what would have happened if Jacob had stolen Bella's heart. That desire led me to fanfiction and I've been here reading ever since. I've just started writing my own stories this year. I'm enjoying extending out new ideas, taking one point in the story where things could have gone another way and running with it

I'm not in my twenties anymore and according to my university I have a Bachelor's of Science degree. I love FF because it's a chance to escape my crazy hectic life. I love my life, but sometimes, I love a respite and I find that here in fandom. I've been really impressed at the many different spins and twists people have taken. I'm an avid Jake and Bella fan, but occasionally I'll venture into new territory if there's a lack of new stories.

Some of my favorite fanfiction authors are taoistelf, tonyamic10 and nikkib1973, so if you haven't read them, you definitely should! My favorite sounding board and pot hole filler (plot holes-though I try not to have those anymore), is plainjanedee.

Thanks! TJ

Thanks for all the messages and begging reviews. I wish I could tell you I have an update in the works. I don't. Teaching is extremely hard to balance as a wife and mother. The demands are even higher these days with the ridiculous mandatory testing. Maybe things will turn around soon.
