Bella's Interview

So... I'd like to know what questions my readers would like to see Bella answer in her interview.  I've really already written the interview scene, but decided to change things up a bit and let the readers have some input since this is the last "real" chapter of the story.  Leave me a comment, email me, or Tweet me and tell me what you want Bella to answer.

Ciao!

Did changedbyEdward fall off the face of the planet?

No... I didn't.

Sometimes real life just won't leave you the hell alone.

I've had a kid in the hospital for a week, I've had a death in the family, and suddenly two nights ago, Edward decided to switch gears with the next chapter completely.

Kid is out of the hospital, the funeral is over, still have family here, but when all the dust settles, I'm scrapping the next chapter and starting over.  I have notes, thanks to Edward keeping me awake, but I have to write the chapter yet.  I'm hoping that since I'm not struggling with the direction anymore that it will just flow.

Love to all of you and thanks so much for your patience during this trying time of my life.

What the Hell is Going On?

I've been working on the next chapter.  Really.  I have.  Promise!  Don't look at me like that!

I've been having some interesting conversations with Bella and Edward regarding the debacle that took place after the VMAs.  A lot of you were disappointed that the main focus in the last chapter was Bella and her over-usage of her anxiety meds.  There were many of you who thought that Edward's drinking and attitude should have been addressed.

Have you ever had a fight like this with your loved one?  They did something wrong that started it, but then you did something really stupid, and when all is said and done, all you can think about is your own stupidity?  That's kind of where Bella was last chapter.  She felt so badly for what she did, that she all but forgot about Edward's part in the whole mess.

So, Edward really felt like he got the short end of the stick.  His feelings about the whole thing were left out of the last chapter because Bella selfishly focused on herself.  He wants to discuss it, he really does, but it requires that we go backwards a little bit.  I wasn't so sure at first, but Edward convinced me, so we're going to go back to the discussion that took place about Edward's behavior and how he felt about it, once he had 17 hours of Bella being unconscious to think about it.

I need to remind everyone again that Edward is not an alcoholic.  He drinks some, yes, but certainly not every single day, and not for the reasons that alcoholics drink.  He was drunk at the party because it was a party and everyone else was drinking.  He was in Velvet mode and was hanging out with friends he hadn't seen in months.  When they are all together, they drink, they party, they celebrate.  Please trust me to know the difference between social drinking and alcoholism.  Really.

Just for fun, I found a picture that is SO precious.  It looks like it could be Velvet and Abby to me.  I don't know who this girl is, but I could totally see her chasing Rob down the street calling him Edward.  Anyway, I'll share that with you, and then I'll get back to Edwardizing.  He can be a little difficult to decipher sometimes, ya know?

See what I mean?  Velvet and Abby!  See you all in the review box soon!

Much love,

Queen of the Evil Cliffies

I've been called lots of things, but Queen of the Evil Cliffies takes the cake. 

I'm sure that some of you wonder just what in the hell I'm thinking, and if you don't yet, you will after reading the next chapter, which is done by the way.  I can explain.

The Letter's Edward and Bella are both carrying a lot of baggage with them from their past relationships.  They have been so caught up in the newness of things and the excitement of everything that has gone on that neither of them have worked through said baggage. 

Also, Bella is hiding something.  It will come out soon, but it will come out in the worst of ways.  If you think about it long and hard, you'll figure it out. 

I just want to remind everyone that the Prologue of this story actually occurs at the END of the story, so everyone knows that eventually it's all going to work out.  However, there are a few bumps in the road yet before we get to our HEA, and we WILL get there.  Promise.  Trust me, okay?

Your author, and Queen of the Evil Cliffies,

What's Bella Wearing to the VMAs?

So... Ya'll have been really patient with me... all four of you.  Thanks!  :)  I'm posting Bella's VMA outfit here for your perusal.  Thanks again to Lead69, Lolarose, and Eyes of Topaz.  I have SUCH a fashion disability, it's not even funny.

Chapter 30 Teaser

Having Emmett with us was great, though. He was always hysterical and when he was around, he seemed to be able to keep Edward upbeat, for which I was grateful. The morning we were to fly out for Tanya’s wake, Emmett had come to our tour bus and beat on the bedroom door at some ungodly hour. Edward had yelled at him to go away, but Emmett, not to be deterred, had just thrown the door open and let himself in. We were both naked, of course, and I gasped and pulled the sheet up around my neck when the door opened.


Emmett grinned and put a meaty paw down, ripping the sheet off of Edward completely.

“Dude! What the fuck?!” Edward yelled.

“Well, aren’t we just a ray of fucking sunshine this morning?” was Emmett’s reply. “You’ve got a personal appearance before we all fly out to Chicago, so get movin’, dude!” Emmett stood over Edward with his arms crossed, waiting for him to get out of bed. I giggled in spite of how pissed Edward sounded when he grumbled something under his breath about ‘fucking morning people’ as he crawled out of the bed and traipsed into the bathroom.

The chapter is currently in beta, so I hope to post soon.  Just wanted to give everyone a little something to look forward to.  :)
