Affiliate Fridays for July 23, 2010



A Different Forest is a fantastic site that everyone should check out! Per their Facebook page, they are "a fun fan community for the Twi-verse, and it's open to everyone: lovers, ranters, writers, readers, chatters, photo-mongers, artists, enthusiasts, filmmakers, movie-goers, gossipers, vampires, werewolves, humans, hybrids, Volturi, demon-spawn, grouches, groupies, grumps and even gripers." Follow them on Twitter, too! There is always something new and fun to be enjoyed at A Different Forest! And be sure to check them out on Tuesdays for 'Pimp Your Fic Recs' if you're searching for the next great read.




My Vamp Fiction "is an open community that encourages fun, intelligent discussion about all things Vampire and Vampire-related." Their goal is "to not only provide a one-stop shop for fans to discuss books, music, movies & television series within the Vampire fiction genre (and to some extent, the Paranormal fiction genre as well), but also to inspire creativity through fan fiction, music & art." Please follow on Twitter at @myvampfiction!

The second summer mini challenge is here!! The Twilight Humans Fan-fiction Challenge is an anonymous challenge, and entries are being accepted until August 7, 2010. Voting will last from Monday, August 9th through Friday August 13th. The winner will be announced on Saturday, August 14th, at which time we will announce the prompt for our August challenge.


Although they love all the male characters of Twilight, Team SOB shares with the Fanfiction Universe their adoration for their favorite Native American. They are not limited to Team Jacob, though. Oh, no. They are equal opportunists and their blog is a place where everyone is "sort of beautiful". So, come and join their party and be sure to follow them on Twitter!



The Indie TwiFic Awards was created to recognize the best up-and-coming or under-recognized Twilight Fan Fiction stories out there. Voting is now closed, and the winners were unveiled March 28th. Congratulations!

You can follow them on Twitter at @TheIndiesTwific.



We love The Lazy Yet Discerning Ficster for many reasons - their essays and recs - but what stands out to us is their well-known Character Exploration series! If you have not already checked out this site, do so now. Be sure to check out their site in general, and most definitely their archived Exploration Series. Not to be missed... Follow them on Twitter at @tlydf.

TLYDF is migrating from Blogger over to a Wordpress format, so while the site is up, they're down for a few weeks. They'll be back bigger and better than before!!



Run by a British Bitch and an American Whore, Fanficers Anonymous is a site where they discuss their favourite stories, preferred couples, writers they love, and keep the fandom updated with which fics have updated in the last 24 hours. Be sure to follow them on Twitter!





The Little-Known Ficster helps spread the word about stories that deserve more attention, as well as the authors who write them! All it takes is a little recognition for a story to soar. So, take a gander at what they, and other readers, have recommended recently, and enjoy! You can also follow them on Twitter @ltlknwnficster...

TwiFicNews is the home of the Word of the Day, and it is also a place where you can both submit your contest or challenge and peruse their directory of current awards and challenges in the Fandom! If you have an event that you would like added to their calendar, email them at twificnews@gmail.com. They are a great source for the latest info in the Twi-verse, so be sure to follow them on Twitter!


The Twilight Awards, of course, is the great and fantastic directory and calendar of all twific awards, challenges, and writing contests! You can ask them to highlight your contest as long as you provide all the appropriate information regarding your contest, and they are wonderful about tweeting it out there to all of their followers. You wouldn't believe the number of hits you will receive to your contest, and the more hits = the more entries = extra creativity within the Fandom! And, of course, if you are looking for a contest to enter, be sure to check out The Twilight Awards...there are so many different awards available to enter.


Twilight Fandom Gives Back is a Fandom-wide initiative created to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand, a children's cancer research foundation. Be sure to follow FGB on Twitter so you are up-to-date with what's going on as far as issues with the site, the total raised so far, and special announcements! The Eclipse Edition was a HUGE success, the total raised for 2010 was $140,179.00!!

You can also donate at any time to The Fandom Gives Back page over at Alex's Lemonade Stand. Just click the lemon on the page! Every penny counts!!


Run by Captain Akyria and her Lieutenants, NCChris, Kitty Cullen, OCDJen, Rosella Whitlock, SarahAH30, and Gem, The Major's Army informs you on all things Whitlock - Jasper, Peter, and Charlotte! *le grunt* Follow on Twitter, or do an about-face and feel disappointment for the rest of your life!


The Major's Army is hosting their very first contest. The Annonymous Whitlock Wars Contest! Details can be found on the contest page. Entries accepted from July 12th-September 12th, with voting from September 14th-20th. Get to writing, the Major orders it!!

Fan Fiction Frenzy is a new site to share and read all alternate types of stories for your favorite books, movies, or television shows. The doors are open and they want those stories!

The Twilight Muses are Madam Akyria, Mistress Gem, and Lady Tazz, and they do a variety of segments: recs, prompts, pics, teasers, contests, as well as Slash Saturday. They are always looking for a guest Muse, so drop them a line if you're interested!




If you have something you want to pimp, TwiFic Pimps is a great place to go! You can also suggest a topic for their podcast (they just had their first episode), and you can submit reviews for Hump Your Readers Wednesdays. Follow on Twitter at @twificpimps...
A new blog is born! For The Love Of Non-Canon is a blog dedicated to Non-Canon stories in the Twilight Fandom. 'Pairings like Bella and Jasper, Bella and Emmett, Bella and Carlisle. Charlie and Esme, Charlie and Victoria etc… Just pairings that aren’t mentioned at all in the books.' Go check out their site, and check out their daily line up. Have a photo manip of a non-canon pairing you created? Send it to them, they'd love to see it, and possibly post it. Follow them on Twitter here.
