Bio:

Am British, used to work full time for a legal firm and am now divorced from both ex-husband and job.  Yay, freedom!


Am heading towards a BIG birthday and fully intend to grow older disgracefully.  Am a rock chick, but also a huge romantic.  Sadly my OH was never romantic at all, not one jot - enough said. Pah! However, my current partner is my souomate and is HUGELY romantic. We love each other to bits, so am living the dream now lol.


Long-time writer of short stories and poems for myself, but had not put anything out there in the wider public domain until I'd seen Twilight at least a dozen times. Then the obsession kicked in!


NOTE:  My stories on here first appeared on Fanfiction.net but I have migrated them here because of the adult content.  Loving Edward is now also being loaded upon Twilighted.net (under the name of Sammicat15 - I did try & get Cullenfest, but don't ask!!), although it will take a little while longer to bring it up to date!


Am totally into the world of Twilight and inevitably all things Rob & Peter.  I won't embarrass myself by admitting how many times I've actually seen Twilight but it numbers well over 100 times.  New Moon is getting on for 50 times.  Eclipse the same.  I stopped reading the books after the 13th consecutive rotation of them and got into writing about the characters to fill that need and it has been a total blast and very fulfilling.  My future challenge will be creating a new vampire world to inhabit, maybe even a cross-over world with the Cullens.


Have always been intrigued by vampires and their lore and am loving all the films and TV series devoted to them.  Also love anything supernatural like ghosts, people with psychic or super powers.


I have rheumatoid arthritis, osteo & fibromyalgia, so writing at a keyboard is probably the worst hobby I could have lol.  If I could have a power, it would be telekinesis.  With the RA, plus fibromyalgia, am in pain every day, so the ability to move items towards me, rather me have to go to them, would be totally wild! 


Am a people-watcher and observer of the human condition. My stories tend to focus on love/loss, the intense emotions of grief/angst/need.  I will always champion the underdog fighting for justice or triumphing through adversity.  I try to balance dark and light - after all you can't have one without the other! 


However, underneath everything, I believe that love conquers all.  If you find love, cherish it, hold it, never take it for granted, because you have something wonderful in your hands.


Am a musical animal like Edward but no longer play an instrument.  Can't get my fingers around the fretboards of the guitars upstairs anymore. Sigh...  I listen to rock, blues, contemporary and classical music constantly - have eclectic tastes and enjoy gigs when I can get to them.  Freedom is having a CD on in the car and heading out on the highway - preferably not on the crowded roads of the UK though!  Have visited the US a fair bit, but what's with the 55mph limits??


Am totally into felines and have several prowling around at home.  Was a volunteer for a cat rescue organisation for 15 years. I shall be having a stern word with Edward about his dietary preferences when I see him!


Hope you like my stuff.  Am a huge believer in reviewing - if somebody puts sweat into writing something, I think it's only polite to spare a moment or two to give feedback.  So please, pretty please, review review review! Please be kind, as kindness costs nothing.


Thank you.

Summary: Past Featured Story

Twice burned, three times as heartbroken.  Bella left Forks and returned to Phoenix to start again.  Jasper walks into a bar to find a familiar face. He can't believe his eyes, but he likes what they see. Ditto Bella.

*The author's screen name is new, the story remains the same.*

a gripping chapter.  it was great :D  the only thing I had issue with was Edward calling her names and being aggressive. Being emo, I think he'd pummel himself rather than take it out on her.

"Don't be working your smooth Southern vampire dazzle voo-doo on my mom for your ill gain, Jasper Whitlock! Don't think I didn't fucking notice she's already smitten with your sparkly ass." She glared at me.

"Yeaaah, she loves me," I said airily. Bella whacked me with a pillow.

I just loved those lines - they had me hooting with laughter :D :D

Cracking chapter, loved all the banter and I love the multiple POVs you use which makes it all so interesting.

Reviewer: Cullenfest Signed

that was simply brilliant.  so spot on, it was awesome. Bella landing those verbal blows on Jake was superb and so right.

Reviewer: Cullenfest Signed
Date: 01 Jan 2011 Title: Chapter 32: Chapter 32

The vampire and the werewolf eyed each other in silence for a long moment. I decided to intervene before I ended up getting peed on. ......I then looped my arms through theirs and with a little tug I led them down the corridor back to ICU, looking much like a fucked up Dorothy leading the Copper Man and the World's Sexiest Scarecrow. Maybe we could get back to Kansas after all.

I simply loved those two paragraphs and the way you weave high emotion with whipcrack dry humour like that.

And again, the lush erotica.  Simply fab.

lol loved the last sentence of your author's note haha :D

I thoroughly enjoyed this chapter. She's right not to let him control her so much, otherwise things would be too claustrophobic.  It does Edward good to be challenged. He is not always right. He can be too autocratic at times.

another enjoyable chapter. thank you for sharing.

on a more serious note, I hope your student makes a good recovery.



Author's Response:

Ah to be young! Bella told me to tell you that she shares your sentiments regarding having  as much sex as ya can squeeze in a 24 hour day. Along with a bottle of Advil.

Thank you so much for your review and your kind words. Sadly, my student passed away yesterday. Like us, he loved all things Twilight. He was about to play the part of Felix in a Twilight parody movie that we are making as a class. Now it will be dedicated to him!

loved the whole chapter, the balance of it, the fun and the erotic parts.  your story definitely deserves more reviews but I find that readers on this site don't review as often as on other sites.

will definitely put you on alert for your new story. good luck with it.

thanks for another wonderful chapter. no need to apologise for the delayed update - we all have real lives and challenges that sap our energies (my readers have been so kind at the lack of my own updates lol).

I love the mix of totally natural conversation, plus the well observed descriptions of reactions.  Everything just moves seamlessly from one emotion/situation to the next.  Excellent!

Enjoy your wedding cake and scones x

Reviewer: Cullenfest Signed
Date: 28 Nov 2011 Title: Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Forever Part Two

Thank you so much for sharing this story with us. It has been tremendous. I think it's a huge oversight that AFITR has not won any awards :( but please don't let that stop you from writing.

I have loved this story from the start. As an amateur writer I know that things often take on a life of their own and will go their own route, but that's the beauty of writing and the wonder of the imagination.

There were things I might have picked you up on in this story re. use of Edwardian language but all in all, it doesn't matter, because your storytelling was so spot on.  You've done a great job.  Am looking forward to the epilogue and any outtakes that hive off the story.  Bring it on!

Btw, I watched the original Twilight film over 150 times when it first came out.  I read the books at least 20 times. Was besotted with it, lived and breathed it for a year. I stayed up nights to write my stories.  Then it stopped.  I haven't watched anything Twi related in months.  My take on the Cullens has changed so much with all the fanfic I've read.  My other half doesn't understand it.  Yet!  So, with it being November again, yesterday I got the BD book out to re-read (and hopefully break my writer's block on my own BD story).  This morning I got the Twilight DVD out and watched it.  Am about to watch NM again.  I'm hoping to persuade my other half to take me to see Breaking Dawn next week, by which time I'll have re-read the book.  How did we ever exist without the Cullens in our lives pre-2007 lol???

How about Jett or Scot?

 

good chapter, although a little hectic lol. still enjoyable though. can't wait for your next update.



Author's Response:

Scott was my first boyfriend, so I probably won't go there! But now...Jeff? Well, that has long been one of my favorite names for a boy (I almost named my last son Jeff!)

TWCS didn't send out any alerts so I am not sure if you knew the second epilogue was published over a week ago. Go read it and see if you like the name E&B chose.

Thank you so much for all your reviews and support-you have been a faithful reader from the first and I appreciate it more than you know. XO!
