So if you're here, it's because you're looking for LB. Here are the questions I figure that you're planning to ask:
Do you really think you’re all that?
No, not really. I didn’t even like that movie with Freddie Prinze, Jr. He seems like he’s a jerk.
Are you trying to publish?
Chances are slim. I’ve had this debate with fandom friends for years now. I’ve said it before. I have no issue with people publishing stories that began as fanfic and morphed into something else. I mean, seriously, Edward never tied Bella up in Twilight nor did he pilot his own helicopter. Apples and oranges, folks. (Godspeed, Icey.)
Why are you pulling then, weirdo?
I spent the last year editing in my spare time. Changing things that bothered me. Making it better. I wanted to be able to show it to some friends who knew I was writing. It snowballed and a number of people want to read it. Having it out on FFn while people I know read it is a recipe for disaster.
I don’t want to read it without Edward & Bella. Can I have a copy?
I’m sure the pdf exists out there somewhere. If I could find Volterra Rocks, you can find it.
Can I make fun of you on Twitter?
Sure.
Can I read the new version?
Sure.
Can I have Edward, then?
No, he belongs to Nina.
Posting this story was an absolutely amazing experience. It's something I never expected and am so grateful for. I wish I could save my reviews because there were times when I was having an awful day and I read something someone wrote. I can't tell you how much that meant to me. I know some people will be upset. I get it. We can agree to disagree. Or maybe no one will notice and wonder who the hell I am. #wishfulthinking

HI!! I just started reading your story today. And then just when i went to read chapter 2, they said they couldn't find it. I wanted to let you know that you are an amazing writer. I read the first chapter and i got hooked. Luckily, i took your advice and i found the PDF file, cuz if I didn't... i can assure you that i would have reduced to begging. You are so wonderful and i hope your writing dreams come true xD
ReplyDeletehey where did you find the pdf please and thanks?
ReplyDeleteSO, what about America's Sweethearts? Will you ever come back and finish it? Does this mean you're done with fanfiction altogether?
ReplyDeleteHi ciaobella! I love your fics, totally do! Anyway, have you already posted the new version of LB for the eyes of your humble followers? Can't seem to find it. Sorry. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank freaking God there is a PDF floating out there. I was so distressed to find your story missing from my favorites list!!! I was freaking out a bit to say the least. Good luck and I hope you do well in your writing!!! Love Joan and Living Backwards!!
