I’ve taken the plunge and finally converted Twilight Tales to an automated archive and gallery. What does this mean? Basically, like with fanfiction.net, you sign up for an account and upload your own work without having to rely on me updating. This way your work goes up when you want it to, you can upload works-in-progress, you have much more control over it, you can get reviews right here on the site, and you can finally have fancy things like bold and italic text in your fanfictions. ;)

As before, the site still has a fanfiction archive and a fanart gallery. To add your work, you will need to sign up for them – don’t worry, it’s quick, easy and free. I’ll also be available for you if you’re confused or have problems.

I will be working on getting all fanworks transferred over to the new sections, though it will take a long time to get all the fanfiction transferred.

Updated the archive with 5 fics (Forbidden Game, Night World & Vampire Diaries) and 5 pics (Forbidden Game, Night World & Vampire Diaries).

In other fanfiction news, now that the Vampire Diaries TV series is under way, I just want to remind people that while I’m not archiving fanworks for it on Twilight Tales, you are very welcome and encouraged to post them (along with Vampire Diaries fanworks based on the books) in the following places:

Fell’s Church Library
Fell’s Church Gallery
TVD Fic on LiveJournal

And a reminder that the new omnibus reprint of Dark Visions is out now.

Updated the archive with 5 fics (Vampire Diaries & Forbidden Game), 4 pics (Forbidden Game & Night World) and 1 poem (Vampire Diaries).

I have to say that there are some really awesome pieces of art being submitted this year. I’m seriously impressed by your talent, people.

Vampire-Diaries.net is running a series of top five iconic moments in the Vampire Diaries, from character quotes to scenes in each of the books. We’d love it if you’d all help out by reading the first article…

Fell’s Five: The Quotable Damon

…and then post what you think are the most iconic scenes in The Awakening. You can do that in the comments there, the comments in the post on the TVD Fans LiveJournal, the thread on the Devil’s Playground forums, and the thread on the V-D.net forums.
