SuperMoon to You All

It’s the largest full moon in 20 years.  Although, I’m sure it’s going to be very impressive my favourite full moon is…

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

So if the moon is tied to lunacy, I’m sure this lil’ Fairy will be even crazier for Eric Northman/Askars.  Be afraid!!

SuperMoon Must Reads

In order to feed your beast tonite, how about trying some of these great fics that I’ve been reading:

Chasing My Tail by Overwhelmed (Aka FanoftheFang)~ This is an Alcide & Maria Star Fic that will have you howling.  AAAARRROOOO ~ Were Lemons ALERT!! It a fun one~shot that is hot & sweet.

Pretty Kitty by ficlit78 ~ Keeping with the animal theme tonite, how about a sweet innocent tabby helping to get our favourite lovers together? This True Blood fic starts after Sookie returns from the Fae realm.  Eric needs to se her and finds that Sookie has a new pet.  See how this pet will help them come to terms with there feelings.  It will definitely have you purring.

Metronome by GLee68~ I feel so naughty loving this fic, but I do,  I don’t even want to spoil this one~shot.  There’s Eric, Sookie & Beeeeel; there’s a bit of BDSM; It’s hot & funny….aaaaaannnd Sookie stays a virgin??? WTF??? Gotta read it!!!

True Desires by SharaMoon ~ This fab fic is from the True Blood Fandom and takes place during the last scene from Season 3 and goes from there.  I love this story.  First I have to mention that there is a rant here from Sookie to Bill that will have you pumping your fist in the air and yelling “You go, girl!” Next is the relationship that develops between Sookie & Eric which is filled with so much passion.  It is a Truly Desirable story that you’ll find difficult to put down

Courtesan of the Dead by Southern Lady 23

Fangreaders Community

Also I would like to recommend the Fangreaders Reading List.  This is the list of Fics that our Group is reading and plan to chat about this month.  We have had most of these authors in the Chatroom to talk about their stories as well as about themselves.  Please check out what the Fangreaders are reading here on my main blog site or on the Fangreaders Blog.

As you all know, I started the Fangreaders Chatroom back in January of this year, and it has expanded and developed into THE place for Authors and Readers to get together and chat fanfics, meet new fanfic authors, chat about True Blood, discuss the SVM Books as well as having a laugh. 

The Indie Fic Competition

We have our own fanfic competition called the Indie Fic which has just opened for submissions.  If you are new to writing fanfics, this would be a great competition for you.  It will have blind judging, but the winner will be pimped out to the SVM Fandom. We’ll make sure that your fic will get noticed and help increase your fanbase. 

Just take any of the original characters from the books or True Blood and set it in an Alternate Universe.  Original characters are welcome, too.  Please CLICK HERE for more info.

Looking Back at 2010

Ok, have we all recovered from Christmas?  So much Food, Fun, and Festivities ~ I will have to work out for the first 3 months of 2011 to make up for it, but it was worth it!  After cleaning up the aftermath of the Toys R Us explosion that happened in our house, I was able to start tackling my reading list.  Spending some “Quality Time” with my Viking has made all the madness bearable.  Now that we are approaching the beginning of 2011, it’s time to look back on 2010.

I think back over 2010 …

~Excessive reruns of True Blood Season 2

to tie me over to Season 3 (or watching eps 9’s dream sequence a million times, or was that just me?)

~Charlaine Harris’ Dead in the Family

~ I know there were mixed reviews, but it was fun to go back to the original sandbox and play for awhile

~Season 3 of True Blood

(Seeing the 1st episode with a naked Eric ~have trouble remembering the rest of the episode)

• More Eric & Sookie dreams (Got skills you can’t imagine cowboy!)
• The Real Hair-Grabbing Kiss *sigh*
• Eric & Talbot *I’m bored~ take your clothes off* sex on the floor *yes, Daddy*
• Eric’s tender moments with Pam
• Eric covered in cement and still looking hot!
• Sookie finding out about Bill and kicking his ass out the door!!!

~Thank you Charlaine Harris for creating the Sookieverse and Eric Northman.  Thank you Alan Ball for True Blood so we can see Eric Northman Naked!!!

~Personally, I’m grateful for all those wonderful people

that I’ve met through the SVM Fanficverse out there~  All those that I’ve talked to on Twitter, Skarsporned with on Tumblr, and emailed through my blog. I’m very thankful to all of you for your friendship, laughter and sharing the ASkars Addiction.  Also I would like to thank all the SVM/ TB Fanfic Authors out there for sharing your gifts.  Charlaine Harris & Alan Ball are the architects, but you are the Interior Designers for my Happy Place. 

Looking Forward to 2011

~Dead Reckoning by Charlaine Harris

Read a preview of Chapter 1.  Looks exciting and I can’t wait to play in the original sandbox again and get dirty.

 

~True Blood Season 4

Praying to any god that will hear me that Alan Ball will give us a Sookie & Eric shower scene!

 

~ASkars Movies~ “13” and “Straw Dogs”

Really they could be about paint drying~ I just want to see him on the big screen *shrugs*

 

 

~More SVM/ TB Fanfics ~ SVM/TB Fanfic Readers Group

Don’t see my addiction ending anytime soon, and I have no need for a cure.  I only wish there were more hours in the day, or I didn’t have to sleep so I can read more.  Since there are other addicts out there, I have talked an idea out with a friend of mine (Clare_de_loon) about a “Book Club” for fanfics ~ If everyone brings a fanfic they have found to the (virtual) table, I think us readers would have a chance to read fics that we might have missed.  If you’re interested please contact me.  If there is a large response or varied tastes (pun intended), we can have different groups.   I can have chat rooms set up and also post comments.  Please come on and Join In.

~My Personal Business Ventures

Having my Wedding/Events Business has been a dream come true.  I have met some great people and have been able to work around spending time with my family~ not to mention reading time.  However, last year was the slowest, and I’m venturing into other projects.  I love being able to spend time with my hubby and daughter.  Hopefully, these projects will be lucrative so I can continue to be there for them.  (Also i will have time for my distractions*smirks*)

  ~ I hope you all the best for the New Year

‘Tis the Season

So it looks like some of us might have a White Christmas.  Woopee.  It’s not the pretty stuff  here anymore. It’s the muddy, slushy, icy stuff.  The kind of stuff that makes getting around a big pain. 

Good news is that I don’t have any work until the New Year! Woopee!

What to do while you’re stuck at home with the Family?

• Have the kids play that awesome game~ “Put all this shit where it belongs” game….It’s hours of fun!
• If some unwanted family members descend upon you~ send them on the “£100 Taxi Tour” (just forget to mention to the driver that it is a return trip).   Money well spent!
• If your hubby is at home during the Holidays, let him play the World Cup Home Edition.  Place a picture of a goal on the laundry basket, and for each article of clothing that goes in he scores a goal. (oops, did I forget to mention about the £100 fine for every article of clothing left on the floor)… Momma’s going Shoppin’ !
• And my favourite Game ~ “You Bother Me During My Time & I’ll Send You to Narnia” Game.  Anyone that bugs me while I’m having some “Me” time will be locked in the wardrobe until they find Narnia!!!

Now that you have some peace & quiet:

How about some reading?

Charlaine Harris released the first chapter on the 11th Book of the SVM Series that will be out May 2011. 

Check it out on Mrs. Harris Website

Remember this is where it all started from the creator of Eric Northman *sigh*.  Thank you Mrs. Harris *bows as if not worthy*

So as I stated before, my daughter is off from school until 5th Jan, and my hubby is home until 13th Jan…Don’t know what kind of condition I’m gonna be in by the end of everyone’s holiday, but I don’t think it’s gonna be pretty

With everyone home, Mummy has less time to do my reading(look at pic on right).  I’m still catching up on my previous reading list and getting all my reviews in.

There are so many fabulous SVM/TB Fanfics out there that I just can’t get enough.  I want to be able to tell those that are searching for Fanfics where to go to find the ones right for them.  Please, contact me with any recommendations for SVM/TB Fanfics that I may have missed or any contest that I haven’t announced.  There are some great Blogs out there that deal solely in the promotion of Fanfics, and I’m in no way competing with those blogs.  In fact, I try to list all of them on my sidebar and encourage everyone to check them out.  I’m JUST a reader having a bit of fun.  If I can entice someone to read a story and review an author, I’m a very happy fairy.  For those that haven’t read and SVM/TB Fanfics, get clicking~ what the hell are you waiting for~ you don’t know what you’re missing!!  Check out the Newbie Category on the sidebar!!  If you’re stuck where to start, contact me.

Since I do most of my reading via my PDA(because I like to get Comfy), I haven’t left reviews for all of them yet.  It’s easier to leave reviews via my PC, because using a touchcreen SUCKS!!  I will eventually leave reviews, because they are all important.

 I will just say again to all the authors how grateful I am for your work.

Quoting from Vikingfantasies These are all “Fairy Approved”

Those of you that are following “Not from Here” by Roux Roux will be happy to hear of her transfer to Livejournal to pre-empt the harassment from FF.net. You will need a LJ acct and will have to be friended to view, but well worth it.  She has also stated that she will continue her other works including “Drawn to You” (which I highly recommend)  She also just had a birthday so please wish her many happy returns. http://roux100.livejournal.com/

For Newbies and Trubies

This Started it All

Cliffhangers (1979)

…all right no snickering)

Dracula (1980)

 

Now, it has to be said that I’ve always loved vampires.  When I was 9 years old I watched a tv series called Cliffhangers which was a trilogy of stories.  One of the stories was about Dracula (played by Michael Nouri).  Major crush *sigh*.  In 1980, Frank Langella played Dracula in the movie Dracula.  OMG…That was it.  I read any and all vampire books and watched all vampire movies.  To me vampires are the ultimate bad boys…sexy, strong, mysterious…the Ultimate Lover. 

2009 was not the best of years for me for so many reasons, however I did discover the Sookie Stackhouse Series.  I tore through the first 8 books at record speed.  Then I read about a show in the U.S. called True Blood.  *heart flutter…thud*.  However, when I read Book 9, I wasn’t particularly happy with the ending.  Major blow.  While surfing one night…later to be called Skarsgarding,  I discovered (like so many of you) Let Love In by Terri Botta.  Holy Shit, Batman.  I recommended that to all my friends and got them hooked on it as well. 

I’m not trying to bore anyone here, but the point is that the Sookie Stackhouse series and later the SVM/TB Fanfics provided a well needed respite of reality and allowed me to regroup.  I will always be grateful to the authors that provided the laughs, drama, and sexy scenes that gave me strength to get through all my own dramas. 

Muahh!  Thank You So Much

It wasn’t until FF.Net started booting off the stories I was reading that I started signing up to all these blogs to keep up with all the authors that I adored.  I started to use my blog to tell my friends what I was reading and hot photos of you know who.  And because some of my friends are still in the closet (or coffin if you will) about their lust for Eric Northman and a bit too lazy to search out good fanfics, I would post what I was reading. (Don’t even, you know who you are *points finger*)

Now, I hope that if some new Fanfic Fan or Newbie stumbles across my site, I can lead them to the right places to find what they’re looking for.  I will always be updating my site….so please come back now, ye hear!

*Questions are always welcome, too*

So Where to start your Fanfic Obsession?

1. Make sure you have an email account: i would recommend opening up a new one just to use for fanfic… your inbox will be full in no time
2. Sign up to Fanfic sites (look in my sidebar); they all have filters to find the kind of story you want to read.  Fanfiction.net is still the best place to start.
3. Check out the following sites to help as well:

[ Note: It’s a good idea to sign up to Twitter so you can get updates to LOADS of Fanfics from MY SVM Addiction (see my sidebar]

These sites will help you find fanfics as well as where to find the authors

Now find somewhere comfy

to start reading.

IMPORTANT:  PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO LEAVE A REVIEW TO THE AUTHOR.  The authors do not make any money from these stories and your encouragement is like gold.

Topic: Constructive Criticism for Fanfiction/ Review Etiquette

Constructive Criticism, does anyone know what this means? I sure hope so!

No doubt that there are a lot of talented writers out there. I have mentioned before, I feel so lucky that these people take time (out of their very busy lives) to share their stories with us. I am not a writer and I will not even pretend to have the talent they have. But I am an admirer and a reader, and I love being that.

With that said, I just wanted to share that it chaps my hide when I read that some people out there are so freaking immature and mean spirited. Why is that necessary? Sure if you have constructive criticism, please share. I believe most of the writers encourage that, they want to hear about constructive ways to grow in their work.

But why, why, why must some be so malicious!!! If you don’t like it, don’t read it and don’t comment. What is the benefit of sending the writer some nasty PM about their work. It’s their story; their work of art that they put time, love and energy into. It means something to them, and to the people that have marked it as a favorite and added it to their alerts.

My point is that the feedback should encourage, not discourage. I know that some of the writers have felt discouraged to continue writing because they are bombarded with negative comments instead of constructive criticism. Do we really want that? Do we really want the writers to stop sharing their stories with us?

Just as there are many stories that I love, there are some that I don’t. I comment on those that I love and don’t bother to read the ones that don’t hold my interest. I think that is o.k. because there are so many different tastes on this site. That is what makes it such a great site! Different stories will appeal to different audiences and that is great. There is no need to be rude about it.

I can’t believe how many times I have read an author’s note in which they are apologizing to us for taking a lot time to post or in which they have to address negative comments. I mean WTF! These writers are sharing their gift with us! Let’s not forget that. They shouldn’t have to justify anything. It is their story!

Sure, sure, freedom of speech and all that junk, but at least learn how to be respectful and write a somewhat intelligent constructive review people. And lay off on the quit your job, school and your family and write this story full time and update now comments! The writers write to escape, just like we read to escape, but they still have an outside life away from all this, and the readers should too.

That’s my rant. Maybe I am feeling brave posting this because I am not a writer and I don’t have to deal with the BS of negative, rude and outright malicious comments. But I respect the writers here and I felt like something had to be said. I want the writers to feel encouraged to continue writing and growing in their craft, not abandon us completely.

Throw down with me if you want, I’ll just stick my tongue out at you anyway!

Now, enough of my rambling.

  Start looking for a good fanfic

and lose yourself into the Sookieverse
