Twilighted :: All-Inclusive, High-Quality Twilight Fan Fiction

Welcome to Twilighted! This is the first Twilight fan fiction site that welcomes all ships, all ratings, and all categories (AU, Crossover, etc.) of Twilight fanfiction, as long as it is well written.

Twilighted is staffed with highly educated Beta Readers who will read and approve those submissions that meet our standards for quality writing. Just because Edward is human and a bartender in Portland doesn't mean it can't be the greatest Twilight fanfiction ever written.

Thanks for visiting Twilighted. Now, go register and submit your work!

Sexy Suspenseful Superheroes

Twilighted is hosting its fourth original fiction writing contest! In cooperation with national best selling author Catherine Spangler, author of the "Sentinels" series (Touched by Fire, Touched by Darkness, and the upcoming Touched by Light), Twilighted is issuing a call for submissions.

Rules and submission instructions are on the Twilighted forum here.

Finalists will receive: Featured Story Status, a Custom "Twilighted Contest Finalist" Banner, and the opportunity to have your work read by published author, Catherine Spangler.

The overall winner will receive: Featured Story Status, a Custom "Twilighted Contest Winner" Banner, the opportunity to have your work read by published author, Catherine Spangler, a $25 Barnes and Noble Gift Card, and a free autographed copy of Catherine Spangler's new book, Touched by Light.

About the author
Catherine Spangler writes edgy, sexy paranormal romance that alters your reality with its dark sense of legend and mysticism. Catherine's new book, Touched by Light, is the third installment in her series and comes out on June 2, 2009.

In honor of her new book's release, Catherine has agreed to do an interview with psymom and judge a writing contest based on the theme, "Sexy Suspenseful Superheroes." The winner of the writing contest, which Catherine will select from the top five finalists, will be announced Tuesday, June 2. Finalists will be determined by psymom from the anonymous submissions.

In addition, Catherine Spangler is presenting a series of writing workshops on the Twilighted Forums that she has adapted from the workshops she teaches at various writing conferences. We are THRILLED to have this opportunity to learn some of the tricks of the trade from a bestselling author! Catherine will post a new segment three times each week for the next three weeks.

Week One will be a three part series on "Writing Right" including 'The Mental Battle,' 'Common Writing Goals,' and 'Specific Writing Suggestions.'
Week Two will be "Writing Paranormal Romance."
Week Three will be "The Subconscious Writer."

Please join Catherine on the thread over the next three weeks to chat, ask questions, or just to to learn all she has to teach us.

Those that post questions and comments on the thread will be entered in a drawing to win free copies of Catherine's Sentinel Series, including Touched by Fire, Touched by Darkness, and Touched by Light!

Good Luck and Happy Writing!

Twilighted iFic!

Twilighted will soon be taking your favorite, high-quality Twilight fanfiction to a whole new level--your iPod earbuds, to be exact!

Twilighted is proud to announce iFic®. Twilighted's iFic Podcast will transform some of the most popular fanfiction housed in the Twilighted archive into podcast audio files that you can take with you anywhere your iPod can go.

That's right--you will soon be able to listen to some of the best Twilight fics available while you're driving, working, exercising, etc.!

The first iFic podcast will feature none other than the classic, Boycotts and Barflies by vjgm! Recording is in progress and the expected release date for the first third of the story is April 22!

We are currently holding auditions for voice talent. Specifically, we are looking for tech-savvy individuals that are skilled "readers" to actually read aloud and record selected works. No previous experience with voice acting is required, and we encourage all interested persons to audition! MEN ARE ENCOURAGED TO AUDITION--we need someone to read the EPOVs!

If you want to audition to be an iFic reader, please follow the instructions below:

1. Obtain Audacity®, free audio editing and recording software. You can download it here

2. Use Audacity® to record a designated selection from Twilight (beginning on page 170 with "He pushed the bread basket toward me..." and ending on page 174 with "Let's not try for three, agreed?"). Male readers should use Midnight Sun beginning on page 3 ("It had been two weeks since our last hunting trip") to page 6 ("But I couldn't hear a whisper") in place of Twilight pages 170-174. Please include a spoken disclaimer noting that Twilight is the property of Stephenie Meyer.

3. Send your recording (in 128Kbps MP3 format) and a short written passage describing yourself to twilightedific@gmail.com. We're most interested in knowing:

Your age (must be 18 to apply)
A bit about your vocational/academic pursuits and hobbies
Your favorite Twilight fanfics and/or fanfiction authors
Approximately how much time per month you would be willing to devote to the podcast

The selection of additional fics will be done by psymom and Team iFic (Sophie, Trinity, ali_cat, and Hopeful Wager), based on site statistics. If you have any questions or suggestions, please send an e-mail to twilightedific@gmail.com or simply leave a comment on the iFic forum thread.

Please keep in mind you have to register separately for the forums.

Twilighted Is Growing!

In an effort to live up to our motto of being “all-inclusive,” Twilighted’s Edward has created a NEW SECOND FORUM designed just for Twilighted’s teen fans:

Twilighted Teens:
An exclusive place for teen fans of Twilight Fan fiction

While Twilighted was built on a firm foundation of no censorship, this was intended to apply to adult members. We know that this is a young adult series though, and that alone may attract teens to this site. You may have noticed that we now require registration on the archive in order to read stories with adult content (R, NC-17).

While anyone is free to read stories rated PG-13 and below (as those do not require registration), our terms of service state that you must be 18 (or of the legal age of consent in your country of residence) to register, in an effort to restrict R and NC-17 stories to adults only.

Twilighted Forums, on the other hand, are completely restricted to adults by our terms of service, which provide that you must be 18 (or of the legal age of consent in your country of residence) to register as well, and you cannot read or post on the forums unless you register, confirming that you are of age. Having an adult only environment allows the lack of censorship that many members enjoy.

Twilighted Teens Forum will be run slightly differently though. Rule number one is, and will always be, “BE NICE!” but there are some additional rules as well. Language sensor software is used which is designed to keep the language on the site clean. Our rules of usage for the Teens Forum do not allow mature content – story discussions will be limited to G, PG, and PG-13 stories, no mature photographs or videos are permitted to be posted, and as always, no fic can be posted on the forums. This is meant to be a place for teen fans of Twilighted and Twilight Fan Fiction in general to go and talk about what they love while avoiding exposure to material intended for mature readers. We encourage all teen users to notify the site administrators of any rule violations so they can be promptly addressed.

And an aside to parents: while we have taken these steps in an attempt to limit underage access to adult content on the site, no action we take can be as effective as parental monitoring of their child’s Internet usage. Parental supervision is, and will always be, the best method of preventing exposure to material deemed inappropriate by YOU.

TwiCon 2009 Fanfiction Contest

The Twilight Saga is complete, and Edward and Bella have finally reached their "happily ever after." Their future is bright with endless possibilities, but it is certain that their adventures are not over. In addition to the joys of marriage, they have a child to raise, new alliances and relationships to forge and develop and the never-ending pressure of the Volturi's next move. The Cullens are poised to become a leading force in the vampire world and their morals and ethics demand that they not stand idly by any longer.

Look ahead to Edward and Bella's Centennial Anniversary, 100 years after the events of Breaking Dawn; what is their life like? How has their relationship changed? Where have they lived and what have they endured? How are the werewolves and how have they played out their part in this life? Has the face and fate of the Cullen family changed as they come to the close of their first century together?

In 3000 words or less, give us Bella's story of the years following their wedding, the birth of their daughter, and the confrontation with the Volturi. Let her tell us about each of the members of their family and friends, their contributions to shaping their current life, and the prospects for the future. Explore the possibilities of what the Cullens' destiny will be, with a focus on the one thing that has gotten them through their many trials and tribulations...Love.
