ghost2Twilight series quote of the day (from Breaking Dawn, page 94): I've never been so happy in all my life--I wasn't this happy when you decided that you loved me more than you wanted to kill me....
I wonder if good Twilight fanfic exists. My searches have mostly turned up schlock with summaries similar to these:
Bella is a mermaid and Edward is the sailor who finds her.
I suck at summery's just read it.
like twilight but edward is human and bella is the vampire can true love prevail. Read 2 find out!!!!!
I believe, however, that things hit a new low with one particular story. The author was trying to indicate that the fic was a ménage à trois. Actually, it was a foursome and she called it, get this, a Menasha twa.
I broke. I made my first topic at fanficrants in ages about this subject. (BTW, if you go to look at the story in question, be warned that it's extremely adult in nature.)
Has anyone ever found any decent Twilight fic? In my searches, I don't think I saw a single story that I would recommend to anyone I like and want to remain on good terms with.

Bella is strong here. No whiny, pitiful Bella here. Again E/B (swear to god I hate the books but apparently I'm a bitch for this pairing) - per the author. The author doesn't shy away from the nity-gritty details of reality either:
Despite living in Dawesonville four years now, she and Mark have remained isolated. Some of it boils down to simple logistics. Most of their classmates don't live in or frequent places easy for a woman in a wheelchair to access. Some of it owes to subtle racism. She doubts there are 100 African Americans in the whole town, including the college; most live in nearby Connyville. And a bi-racial couple . . . well, Mark was viewed as uppity for marrying white, Bella just regarded as slumming; around here, only trailer trash married black.
