Story Behind the Penname-

i wanted something to do with Alice, because she is my favorite character in the books. but i wanted to show how awesome and adorable she was, so the 'Awsome' without the 'e' is spelled like that because the 'Aw' (think of it as seeing a cute little puppy and going 'awwwww') stands for how alice is adorable. so i took out the e. i spelled it wrong on purpose.

Co-Posting-

Need to co-post? e-mail me. I’ll help you out. Keep in mind that those of you who are new to the whole 'fanfic writing' thing might want to think about co-posting to get the idea and feel of it all before posting your own story.

Reviews-

I leave reviews after everything i read. Although, as of late, that hasn't been much. I really love getting reviews-as long as you're not horrible. saying something like 'dont ever write again' or 'that sucked why is it even posted' (though i have never gotten either of those) is the meanist thing an author could possibly get as feedback. i'm not just saything this for me, but for every author on here. i know the people on here are nice and respectful, and i always get amazing reviews from all of you. they always make my day

 

 thank you Marauder by Midnight for making me another banner :) i couldn't let it go to waste :)

 Check out 'In My Time', where past is the present and the future is now

Personal Info-

Team Edward or Team Jacob- umm both? can i choose that? lol i don't know, but i think that would be Team Switzerland (not that i'm pro Bella or anything). i couldn't choose between the two

i live in MI and have forever.

i'm in high school

My Name is Ashley

My Birthday- September 30th

i have a twin brother

i have 2 cats

i got into Twilight by seeing it at a school book fair and buying it. 3 days later i walked out of Barns and Noble with New Moon ;)

I started writing by just getting ideas with the twilight characters, mostly 'what-ifs'. I was searching online and found this site.  Then I just posted my stories to it and found out I was better than I thought I was, thanks to all of you ;)

if it looks as though my earlier work (Lullaby, Baseball, Nightmare at the Dance and a little of Possibilities) has a lot of spelling/grammar errors I do realize it. I think I mostly went through Baseball and Lullaby but Nightmare at the Dance and Possibilities will take a while. I never wrote before this and those stories were written before i had a Beta. Don’t worry though, everything else is edited though

 

 Books-

 Some of my Favorite Books (which I encourage you to read-in no particular order)

-(#1 favorite series...sorry Twilight) The Hunger Games books (Includes The Hunger Games and Catching Fire) by Suzanne Collins. Those books are the best i have read in a very long time. Catching Fire was the only book that i've ever read that made me read it in one day nonstop. Not only that, but there were parts that i was so shocked or excited that i couldn't even speak-amazing. The Hunger Games made me read it 3 times in a row, and since then i've read it 5 or 6 times as well.

-Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer (if you haven't read it what are you even doing here?)

-The Host by Stephenie Meyer

-The Vampire Diaries by L.J Smith (i know-regardless of the hype of 'did S.M copy the vamprie diaries to make Twilight???-this series is still pretty good. i love the show as well

- Any books that are written by Sarah Dessen are amazing

-Any books that are written by Jodi Picoult are even better

-The Luxe books (includes The Luxe, Rumors, Envy and Splendor) by Anna Godbersen

-Firefly Lane by Kristan Hannah

-Wicked Lovely Books (includes Wicked Lovely, Ink Exchange, and Fragile Eternity) by Melissa Marr

-Scribbler of Dreams by Mary E. Pearson (i interviewed Mary and she is super nice-not only is this book amazing, but so is the author)

-A Rose for Melinda by Lurlene Mcdaniel

-The Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot

-Blue Blood Books (includes Blue Bloods, Masquerade, Revelations, and The Van Allen Legacy) by Melissa De La Cruz

-Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling

-The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kid

-A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly

-Gallagher Girls Series (includes ‘I’d tell you I love you but then I’d have to kill you’ and ‘Cross my heart and hope to Spy’ as well as 'Dont Judge a Girl by her Cover') by Ally Carter

There is probably more and if I think of them I’ll be sure to add them :)

Music-

Music plays a very big role in my writing. Not only to I enjoy playing music, I enjoy listening to it. I usually have Playlists for my stories, even. If there is a part in my story that is sad, I’ll listen to sad music. If there is an exciting and challenging part to write, then I’ll listen to fast music or action music from Score’s of movies (usually the Twilight Score). When I’m writing ‘In My Time’ I usually listen to classical music. Because I need such a wide variety of music to keep the juices flowing I enjoy mostly any type of music there is, though there are some limitations. I will only listen to Country as far as ‘Taylor Swift’ and ‘Rascal Flats’. Gothic/Emo music or anything very hard rock will make me crazy and give me a headache-so that’s definitely something you will never see me listening to. Rap I can sometimes withstand listening to, but never writing to.

Instruments-

I play the violin as a major (that means that violin is the main thing I play) and I also play a little of the piano. If i was forced to give the cello and viola a wack, i could-since i know the fingerings and notes, as well as strings. so it wouldn't be too hard.

Basically if you didn't know already- Music, Family and Friends, Writing, and reading are my life.

 Just like Bella I start crying when i am frustrated...something i hate about myself. I’m also very clumsy, and I usually fall or run into things on a daily basis-I really hope I grow out of it, because showing up with a new injury every day at school is quite embarrassing.

i'm one of those people who loves to help and organize school dances and stuff so im in Student Leadership and going on my 3rd year. i was in Student council for 7 years as well

My family is mostly Italian

  Beta Reading-

-How intense of a beta are you?-I’m not a complete nutter when it comes to editing. I’m nice-if the thing you send me is the worst thing I’ve ever read, i don't say so. I’m very flexible-but if you are bent on me being intense, i can be. I’ll fix the grammar and spelling automatically, but i usually do comment on if the plot is getting boring or the character point of views are way off. But I always do that in a nice way. I’ll give you tips without you asking-i can be a perfectionist when it comes to plots/character POVs-so beware. That is the only thing i can get a little nutty about :)

What lengths of fic can you beta? I’m game for any length. Anything fewer than 2,000 words i can check and have back to you usually the same day. Anything over and it'll take me two days. I’m very fast-I’ll never be more than 3 days in editing.

 What do you hate to read?  I'm not picky....okay, who am I kidding? I HATE non-cannon fics, and only sometimes (if well written) will I be able to read through a AU fic. But I can't bring myself to read Non-cannon, unless its Leah/Jacob or Bella/Jacob. those two are the only non-cannon I will read. Cross-over’s are no good as well.

What do you love to read?   I love reading any Cullen Couple fics :) i have a soft spot for those as well as La Push Pack fics as well. i love fics that could actually happen in the series-and i prefer chaptered-but one-shots are easiest to edit.
