Hey Everyone!
I'm Marie, or Mary as my mom calls me. I'm from Germany, so please excuse my bad grammar and spelling.
At the moment I work at the theatre in my home town. I do costumes and have been the director's assistent for a few productions.
I like a lot of different things. I'm also crazy.
I sort of missed the first big Twilight wave but when the movie came out one of my friends dragged me to see and the only reason I let her was because she told me that Robert was in it. I wasn't all that impressed by the movie, but since books are always better than the movies I went and bought the book. In English, I'm pretending that there is no German translation...eww.
Anyway, I read the first book on a flight from Germany to England and bought the second one at the airport, and it was so sad that I had to stop reading. After a few weeks a friend gave me reading homework while I was staying at her house. Quote: "We can't be friends unless you've read this so sit down on your butt and don't talk to me before you've read at least 100 pages!" I finished the book that day. And the next book the day after that. Two days later it was time for me to fly back home so I bought Breaking Dawn at the airport in London. I have not touched it to this day.
I've heard so many things about it, and if I don't like it then there will be no next book to fix everything...
So yeah, that's my Twilight story.
I got into fanfiction about 1000 years ago after the first season of Digimon aired here in Germany. I think I was 12 or 13...and then Harry Potter came along. However in those two fandoms I've only been on German sites and never all that active. I just read.
But the Twilight fandom seemed so exciting and awesome that I got more into. I'm still really new to everything and have only read very few fics and I work really hard on keeping myself from writing.
I have written and published a few German short stories, but I feel that fanfiction is very different, plus I'm not all that confident with my English.
I just respect the authors in this fandom so much, there are some amazing stories out there.
I forgot how I found the Temptation potcast, but it was just recently and I love it. Actually I listened to all the old episodes to day while I was sewing. I love all the recs. I have a list and I think I have enough to read for the rest of my life.
I could just go on forever, but I'm gonna stop right here.
I'm so excited about being here! <3
Love,
Marie
