So, I haven't posted anything since Friday and admittedly that post was pretty lame. In fact, lately, all my posts have been pretty lame. I apologize. I am the kinda girl who needs inspiration. I need that boost of creative adrenaline. I snag creativity from others. Not in a plagiaristic way, but in a dependent way. A good book is like a drug to me. It makes me happy. It makes me feel good. It makes me feel more attractive. When I have not read anything good I can feel myself falling into a funk. I have been in a severe funk. Seriously!!
I miss all the great Rob tidbits out there. I am going through withdrawal waiting for a glimpse of Rob as Edward. I am given a hard time about the lust I feel for Edward. Contrary to my husband's belief. I don't really think about that. Really all I need is some of those sweet, sweet rushes of pleasure I get when I read any of the Twilight books or when I watch the movie. Or the almost orgasmic experience of reading my new New Moon companion. You would think that that would have at least got me through until the movie comes out or at least the soundtrack for God's sake. Nope. It did not. I am wallowing in this funk.
I was desperately searching my computer for a fix when I came upon a fan fiction I had saved in my favorites months ago. It was there that I found my spark. My renewed interest in the world around me. Wide Awake. I have read about this compilation on various blogs, but was never in the right frame of mind to appreciate it. It was so fucking good. Excuse my language, but I couldn't come up with a more appropriate adjective.
"Edward and Bella have dark pasts that leave them severely emotionally scarred, with nightmares that force them to stay awake. They meet and begin to form a bond during the night hours."
This impressive work of fiction rings in at almost 50 chapters with an epilogue in the works. It is dark and lovely and emotional. I want to own a copy!! It took me 15 hours to read and I came out with a sense of calm and that oh, so needed, rush of pleasure, and an unfortunate bit of eye strain. I would gladly get glasses and read this again. I highly recommend this read.
