| or the next day....or the next. |
Speaking of procrastination, today on twitter a lot of people have been tweeting #ficmemories- The greatest moments of fan fic stories. What does this have to do with procrastination? Well, I'm getting there...eventually. You see, dear friends, I love to read. Growing up, I would often read 1-2 books a day (I had friends, I swear!). To this day, I still love to read but between work, social life and all the tv shows I watch, reading books takes a back seat. And reading fan fic takes one as well. But as I was reading these tweets, I realized that I hadn't read about 90% of the stories. Had I heard of them? Yes. Do I owned them or have a link to where they are located? Probably. Had I read them? Nooope! But hear me out.....
Reasons I suck at reading fic
1. My phone battery dies practically twice a day.
2. When I sit in front of my computer to read, I get distracted.
3. I have the attention span of a ..... oh something shiny!!!!
4. That's all.
I plan on having an E-reader before 2012 to make all of these excuses null. But here's where I need your help. I want to know everyone's top 5 fics. That way I know which ones I should read ASAP and which can sit on the shelf for a bit. To make it a little easier, I've created a
Fics I've read

2. MotU I
3. MotU II
4. The Best Man
5. The Blessing and the Curse

So please leave a comment with your top 5 fics..or 3....or 1. I'll put a list together and decide which to read first. Ready..... go!
Hope everyone has a fantastical weekend!

Hi! Finally upgraded my phone and can actually blog!
I am su h a slow reader these days and, like you, I am easily distracfed. It's why I love one shots, drabbles, and short stories.
As you know, I pretty much read slash these days. It's hard to list a top five!
Het:
1) MotU I and II by Snowqueen Ice Dragon
2) EP by Kharazzmatic (need to finish)
3) Little Green and Easybella by Betti Gefecht
4) The Plan by Quantumfizzx
5) The Slowest Burn by Typoqween
Slash:
1) Twinned/Seventeen Men/White Lines by Conversed
2) Sixty Five Hours by owenic
3) Raw and Rosy by tuesdaymidnight
4) Together We Fly by Bbebar
5) Uncomfortable by teambella23
6) Lessons Learned (spinoff and upcomimg sequel) by mistyhaze420
7) Equal and Opposite (spinoff and sequels) by Oh Jasper My Jasper.
I recommend anything written by the above slash authors in all honesty, including collab efforts.
Illegal Contact

Oh geeze... I think fanfiction is taking over for the year wait between movies lol. Hmmm let's see my top five... gah that's hard the number I've read is in the hundreds, "I have friends I swear" (I could quite possibly be lying about having friends lol)
1) Clipped Wings and Inked Armor
2) The Office
3) Wide Awake
4) Unplanned Perfection
5) Every single thing written by Savage!
Good thing I stopped at five or this could take a loooong time.
PS: These are all completed stories however if you want WIPs I can make a whole other list.
PPS: For future reference I know someone *cough*myself*cough* that can get you many pulled fics in many different formats like for a kindle, iphone, ipad, whatever form you need it.
Gosh I feel so outta the loop! I've only read 50 Shades in book form. I have starred peoples blogs for their recommendations. One day, some day, I will be in the loop.
Ohhhhh girrrrrllll. I be creepin' on your blog and had to comment because I've been scrounging twi-blogs for fanfics all night! I JUST finished (well, up to the updated part) Substance Clad in Shadows. JJ recommended it ages ago and I had started reading it back then but got distracted (oooohhh shiny!) and didn't continue reading until last night.
I tell you ... this story dug its hands in me. Her writing style is like no other. She's incredibly poetic and describes everything so beautifully ... you hardly notice Bella is stark raving mad. BUT! The way she writes her, I'm in love. I think she's my favorite Bella out of ALL the fics I've read.
So, I thought I'd share in the event you haven't read it or have it on your list. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7267735/1/Substance_Clad_in_Shadows
