description:
This is a parody mocking the Twilight series. If Bella's obliviousness and Edward's chrome-y muscles get on your nerves then try this story instead.

Your list of books makes me jealous in the way douchebags get jealous of others' long list of friends on myspace. I must go home and write more reviews. :)
I also love your Twain quote about switching "very" with "damn." I meant to click on something to say I liked it, but I think I accidentally added it to my own on accident. Oops!Stealing your good lines!
I've been mulling over the idea of wanting to start some small writing group. You know, get together every couple of weeks or so and bring some writing and wine, talk about each others shit and what not. What do you think? So far I've thought of two possible members: you and me. Becca was in a writing class of mine in high school though and wrote absolutely wonderful things. Maybe we could crack open her inner writer again too. :)
dang! i stopped reserving books at the library because i thought they were all going to be available sooner than i could read them. guess its safe to go ahead and reserve that one then. thanks for the heads up!
