Emergency Beta Service announced the winners of their 2nd Anniversary Challenge!

"Thank you, everyone who participated and supported this challenge, for helping us celebrate our 2nd year with us with style. We have appreciated every story, every tweet, and every like on Facebook. Working out the results was a lot of fun (for the one who secretly loves statistics), and we are finally ready to announce our winners. Continue...



The Second Line won the judges round!

Twilight romance fiction. Prompts: Free Pass and writing in 2nd person narrative. Here is what TiffanyAnne3FF had to say about it:
The author did a good job capturing the emotion of the moment in a short piece. The use of second person worked well, and the primary prompt (two of something) was clear.

Great banner! Thanks to Detochkina!

THANK YOU!

I'd like to say "Thanks" to SatinCoveredSteel and Camilla10 once again for their editing and support.

Here's the banner I made for the story.



And here's the story: The Second Line.

Enjoy, and have a great week!

        The story is due to be updated every Friday.



        This chapter's suggestion is 

        Cesare Pavese, Verrà la morte e avrà i tuoi occhi

        Verrà la morte e avrà i tuoi occhi-
        questa morte che ci accompagna
        dal mattino alla sera, insonne,
        sorda, come un vecchio rimorso
        o un vizio assurdo. I tuoi occhi
        saranno una vana parola,
        un grido taciuto, un silenzio.
        Così li vedi ogni mattina
        quando su te sola ti pieghi
        nello specchio. O cara speranza,
        quel giorno sapremo anche noi
        che sei la vita e sei il nulla
        Per tutti la morte ha uno sguardo.
        Verrà la morte e avrà i tuoi occhi.
        Sarà come smettere un vizio,
        come vedere nello specchio
        riemergere un viso morto,
        come ascoltare un labbro chiuso.
        Scenderemo nel gorgo muti.

        Death Will Come with Your Eyes

        Death will come with your eyes—
        this death that accompanies us
        from morning till night, sleepless,
        deaf, like an old regret
        or a stupid vice. Your eyes
        will be a useless word,
        a muted cry, a silence.
        As you see them each morning
        when alone you lean over
        the mirror. O cherished hope,
        that day we too shall know
        that you are life and nothing.

        For everyone death has a look.
        Death will come with your eyes.
        It will be like terminating a vice,
        as seen in the mirror
        a dead face re-emerging,
        like listening to closed lips.
        We'll go down the abyss in silence.

        Announcement time!

        "De Immortalitate" (my first multichapter story, now complete) and my one-shot "Spruce and Cactus" are up for a Shimmer Award!

        First of all, a glass of Italian spumante for you all!

        There's something to celebrate, here in Italy: my Italian friend Camilla won a SHIMMER AWARD (Outstanding Story), 2nd place winner of the category.
        Here's the story
        http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5732101/1/The_Parachutist


        "The Parachutist 2 - Our New World" is currently posting on FF.net

        C O N G R A T S !
        Many TwiFic authors know Camilla because she gives a lot of feedback to every fanfic writer. She's read almost every fic in the fandom, if it has vamps in it ;)

        I'm beyond happy for her.
