Twilight Series Article: Why Twilight is rank.

When you really think about it, Twilight consists of 50% talk about how hot Edward is. 30% of the word "chagrin" and 20% other. Even my English teacher said that it's written at a 5th grade reading level, to which I completely agree. Bella and Edward aren't "in love" all they're experiencing is lust, obsession, infatuation. What good does Edward do to Bella? The whole time you hear about how perfect he is. It's easy to make a perfect character, anyone can do it. Besides, according to SMeyer, Bella is an "independent woman." Well, how is she independent? All of her decisions are based on Edward and how he would react to it. In New Moon, she puts her life in danger to see some form of Edward, you're trying to tell me she's independent? By the end of Twilight this girl is more than ready to give up her entire life (i.e college, and so forth) for some sparkling freak. Oh and don't get me started to SMeyer's "Well, my vampires are more scientifical" I wouldn't get on her case if she had never said that, but she did. How are sparkling vampires "scientifical"? They're ice cold ALL of the time. That doesn't fit. Everything absorbs body heat, even if it's an inatimant object. Pick up something, and hold it in your hand. Pretty soon,it's going to be at least at room temperature. How about how the vampire baby was concieved? That is NOT scientifical my friends. The number of chromosomes in a vampire's DNA is different than that of a human's. A baby can only be concieved if there are 46 chromosomes. Edward's DNA would have killed Bella's egg off because there wouldn't have been enough or too many chromosomes. Now all of you Twihards are going to tell me "OME stop being sooo MEAN! Edward is HAWT and these are the best books EVA!" Okay, I get it, you lack taste, but we can fix that. Pick up some QUALITY books and compare them to your "best books EVA!" And please, please stop comparing Twilight to Harry Potter. Harry Potter wins any day, hands down. Those books have a much more developed plot and people like them not because it has "sexi vampires!" But because it has lasting impressions on everyone and the protagonist is a courageous guy who really cares about people. Harry Potter appeals to EVERYONE not just to 12-18 year old girls. I bet you if Edward and Jacob weren't "hawt" the fanbase would be gone. And yes, I have read these books, and yes, I did like them for a while so I can actually rant about them. By the way, Bella's initials are BS, which is quite ironic. xD

mommy6197 you might think H.P. is better and that is your option. you don't have to dog on twilight just because u don't have an imanition to see the real story behind it all. It is all about star crossed lovers the new romeo and Juliet. learn it, live it, love it.

trailofexcuses You're absolutely right, I DO think HP is 100 times better. But tell me, why do I need imagination to see the real story behind Twilight? What is the real story behind it? I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just curious.

EBRCBrit Ok i like twilight way better then H.P. Twiligth is romantic and has alot of emotion. Who cares if the only reason to like it is because of hunky vamps. they are sexy!!!! I agree with mommy6197 she pretty much sums it all up!!!

trailofexcuses But only liking people because they're attractive is vey shallow. Their characters are so under developed, the only thing they've got going for them is their looks. I actually think it's creepy that a 100 plus year old man would settle for a 17 year old naive girl.

snusnu13 oh please mommy6197, you have got to be kidding me. you think there is a real story underneath all the garbage? maybe there is and anyone who doesn't like twilight can't see it. Two hot guys falling over one Mary Sue girl with absolutely no personality, jeez. Check out this link and see for yourself, SMeyer admitted that she left out a description of Bella because "the reader could more easily step into her shoes" Check it out: http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilight_faq.html/

Erin: Chapter 1

Erin and Alice

Ok, this is about my best(and only)friend on fanpop, BURITOES. She's not much of a Twilight fan, but she is reading the book, and she is an amazing person. It is about her being friends with alice cullen. p.s. erin's pov

--------------------------------------------------

I approached Alice. She was wearing a medium length black dress with black flip-flops. I suddenly became so much more nervous than I already was. I had to tell Alice something so important, I had only told my diary(who which by the way was very good at keeping secrets.). "Hi Alice." I said.

"Hey Erin,what's up?" Alice replied...

Kayla, Chapter 29 Part 2

posted by twilight-7

This is just a short extra added on bit that I wrote that goes before Chapter 30. It should have been in Chapter 29 but I wasn't going to write it but then I thought, 'Why not?' So here it is.

Edward was carrying me to his Volvo. His arms were wrapped securely around my waist.
“Hey! Stop!”
Edward ignored me and shoved me, not ungentle, into the back of the car. He shut the door.
“Edward!” I shouted but again he ignored me. “Tell me what’s going on!”
Edward’s face was unreadable. It was like he was wearing a white mask. His eyes avoided all contact with mine because he knew I would...

My Valentine - Chapter 4

posted by dinosteph

So, apparently I need to only write one story and stick with it until I'm done. Writing two stories at once takes a lot of time, and then adding in a contest, one shot story doesn't help.

Stop worrying bout whether or not I'm going to be finishing both of my stories, the answer is yes, I won't leave you hanging, at least not for long.
I am a student, and I have a job, and I volunteer, and this and that. but I love writing these stories, I actually get most of my writing done at work haha.
I'm going to Miami in two weeks to build houses with Habitat for ten days, I will be doing writing while I'm...

My Dark Days

posted by bitten_byedward

Okay, so I know I posted this before but I changed some things about it. Revised it more. Plz R&R.

This is a fanfiction about when Edward leaves in New Moon. This is after Bella runs into the woods to chase after Edward when he leaves her.
A/N: I own no characters.

Bella's POV

I couldn't believe he left me. He didn't want me. And here I was, on a wild goose chase, chasing after a vampire who I was in love with. But he wasn't in love with me. I had lead my life into a fairytale, and then he ripped it away from me. I knew I should be mad at him. But, he was Edward Cullen. I couldn't understand...

Aura--Chapter 6--Legacy

posted by mikaela_isabela

I was uncomfortable.
My neck was lying on the couch at an awkward angle. I could feel Nate’s feet on my lap, and I could hear him snoring quietly. I opened my eyes and saw that my head was facing towards the ground. I must have moved in my sleep. I yawned hugely and rubbed my eyes. They felt weird. Like they were prickling.
I moved Nate’s feet and backward rolled off the couch. I got to my feet unsteadily, trying to regain my balance. I looked out the window. Charlie’s cruiser was gone. It must be later in the morning.
I went into the kitchen, to find some breakfast when the phone rang....

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Goes to Forks Part VI

posted by CullenCult

Even though they did not know it, Bella was listening to everything they were saying, and she wasn't liking what she was hearing.
"I'm telling you! She should just act normal!" She heard one of them say.
"No! It's to dangerous!" Another one said, Edward she assumed. Then, growing bored from the ongoing debate she realized that this was her chance, everyone was to preoccupied with trying to decide what she should do, she just slipped behind the house and went through the back door. Only Spike saw her. After she had been gone for about five minuets, he decided to clue the rest of them in.
"Hahaha."...

Edward stood there for what flet like forever, when really it was only 3 seconds or maybe less.I blinked and he was gone.O.K not really gone but he was beside me, I turned to face him and he said"Why are you here?"I didnt know what to say so I sat down wishing I could just say it was a big mistake and leave but instead I asked him "Do you love me" "Bella I ......I dont know" I looked at him "Answer my question...Do you love me?Please I dont care what the answer is but I need to know if you still love me."Now he was sitting beside me and I could feel this electricity between was like that day...

chapter two;;;here it is:)

Chapter 2—Platform 9 ¾…?

    Edward sat at a table in the Leaky Cauldron with Ron, Hermione, and Harry Potter.
    They all seemed extremely happy about something.
    “So,” he said conversationally. “Why are you all so cheerful?”
    “We just defeated the darkest wizard ever, Lord Voldemort.” Said harry.
    Racist, thought Edward. But he said, “Oh, ok. Was he bad?”D
    “Uh, YEAH,” said Ron, rolling his eyes. “He’s tried...
