"Why read about worlds that I cannot have?" This is the line that hit me most reading the new one-shot
A Voice in the Darkness by Katinki
When I reviewed An angry man, I said that when you close the vampire book you're reading, the horror that fantasy monsters represent suddenly disappears, while it's not the same with other horrors of our world.This new story by Katinki deals with modern-day slaves.Most readers choose fanfics to get some moments of entertainment, that can be very rare and precious in a busy real life.Many readers don't forgive an author if the writer doesn't give them a traditional HEA, with sunshine and rainbows, at the...

The more I read (and write) fanfiction, the more I'm becoming interested in the writing process and in different writing styles, sometimes even more than in the story plot!I've recently read Hide and Drink by Shay Savage. I was impressed not only by the very original plot she created, but also by her amazing writing style; so I immediately continued to read her other works. Unespected Circumstances, still in progress, caught my attention because of the attention that the author gives to every detail to develop the main themes of her story (Edward and Bella deal with their fears of rejection, the discovery of their bodies, the bases...

There was a time when I didn't read any AH fanfics. Then I found The University of Edward Masen, by Sebastien Robichaud. There was a time when I used to read only "Edward and Bella" fanfics; then, I found The Ice Queen and Mister McCarty by Sebastien Robichaud
Summary: "They called her the Ice Queen. They called him Mister McCarty. This is their story. AU/AH/OOC/Some canon elements".
Don't miss it because...
Rosalie's past is one of the most detailed of the entire saga and her issues about the nature of her life and her unsatisfied desire for maternity make her much less of a "teenager" than the other Cullen kids.
Emmett is often portrayed...

What would you say if there was a world where Breaking Dawn continues, till you are brought to many years after that, so that you can discover about Alice’s lost family (The Brandons), and about Leah’s (surprising) imprint? (Heaven Help My Heart). A world where you can also learn what happened in the interval between Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, and how things really went on Isle Esme…and beyond (I Hunger for Your Touch and the stories that precede that).
You would say that you have stumbled on the wonderful universe Jmolly
has created for us. A universe where vampires are capable of growth, and things start moving for them.
Don’t miss going...

Vampires are monsters, even according to themselves. They're dangerous, or at least that is what Edward states in Twilight, saying that he is "the world's most dangerous predator". But when you close the vampire book you're reading, or when you switch off your television or your computer, the horror that vampires represent suddenly disappears.It's not the same with other horrors that are described in the following twifics.
An Angry Man by katinki
Summary: "Edward is a bitter, angry man, a man suffering the sins of his past. An emotional & physical recluse, he pushes everyone away. That is, until Bella, a mysterious woman with her own demons,...

Once upon a time, there was a man who claimed to have three souls.He was a writer and he used these word to explain his condition: "tria corda". It's Latin, because Ennius -- this is his name -- lived between 239 and 169 b.C.His statement about his souls, or about his "hearts", if we translate literally his latin expression, has nothing to do with religion. Ennius was referring to the languages he knew and used. They were Oscan (his mothertongue), Greek, that was the "international" language in the Mediterranean area, and Latin, that was the language of his masters.Yes, masters, because Ennius arrived in Rome as a slave. He was one of the first...
