Karma's A Witch

I've posted my first chapter.
Every Friday I'll update on TWCS and FF.net. If approved I'll be posting on Twilighted too.
Thanks for all the support so far! I'd like to give a shout out to Synphilia and bellaandedwardaddict for betaing and helping me with my grammar (god knows those two deserve a couple hundred dollars for the work they put in).
Enjoy. :)

FictionPress.com

I created an account so I can now write originals.
I think that my highest writing potential is to write alright fanfictions. I'm getting better at writing, but I'm not great. So, writing on FictionPress may open some doors for me, maybe. :)
I just wanted to share, and haven't updated in awhile.
Keep reading Moonstruck Souls and I should be starting a new fiction after this one is over, I have a few to choose from but I think I'm going to write 'Don't Open Until Dooms Day.' Its a story I've outlined and been thinking about. It's Alice getting married and making everyone miserable while Edward and Bella met because Alice wants her wedding dance to be a choreographed tango routine and Edward and Bella are paired up.

New Idea's and Recommendations

Rec's first:
There is a fic called 'Could Be Worse, Right?' and although it was hair-pulling and actually got me a bit frustrated  Savage really created an Edward I like (like always with her twisted f'ed in the head Edward's.) The fic is on her Blog, Link Below... enjoy.
Could Be Worse, Right?

New Story Maybe?:
I've been dreaming about ranches and Horses, so I think my next fic might be about Edward being sponsored by the Cullen's ranch as his probation! (Stupid rich kids getting out of jail.) Bella may either be Carlisle and Esme's Niece or Carlisle's in-training Vet who lives over the stables so she can be closer to the damaged horses. (It might be a combination of both.) Alice will run the finances, the trades and the appointments for breeding, Rosalie will be a world renown bull rider who helps with the cattle with her big oaf husband (Esme's child with her first husband). Jasper had raced stallions but he's settled down, and even starting thinking about asking Alice to marry him. (They live in the guest house while Emmett and Rose live in Emmett's fathers old ranch.) I won't give too much away and I'm still working out the deets, obviously... I just wanted to share.

700 Reviews... Holy crap-olio

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
I'm really in awe right now. 700... and to think I was mostly just hoping to get the idea out of my head so I'd stop dreaming of a suit-wearing-hard-ass Edward.
I'm humbled, and I really appreciate all the reviews.
I may have started on a third epilogue as a super thanks, but until then, here is some pictures that brought my imagination to life just that much more, and quicker.
The Mafia home:

Edward with a gun:

Pool Scene Picture (found it, did not make it. Minus the rain and the background, give me a break it just helped me work):

The no-sex, sex scene (This just made me sigh):

Collaboration:

Jasper and Alice being adorable:

Jane's Daughter Bree:

Banners!!!! I'm so Excited!

I'm getting really good at photoshop... So I started with Vindicated, (first attempt and didn't really care)

You can see how I progressed as I made, Thicker than Chocolate's Banner

My Next is MoonStruck Souls, Alright, but not totally how it should have been since I had to start over FOUR TIMES. I had a really good moonstruck souls, but I keep getting an error that say's it's not compatible with this version of photoshop (I just worked on it yesterday... come on! There is no way, but I have this.)

I progressed even further with my newest (late-night-nail-biting-fiction) and I'm really satisfied with Karma's A Witch.
