My name is April, and I am a happily married mom of seven, five of which are adopted. Yes, I do know what birth control is – for me the best form would be not answering the phone when the local social services agency calls. I say that with tongue in cheek, I am extremely lucky. I come from a Native American heritage (Cherokee), and my adopted children are Tlingit Indian (Alaskan Natives).
I was given the Twilight novels last summer by a friend to read. I’m a reading addict and have a broad range of interests. I burned out on the vampire genre years ago reading Anne Rice, so I really didn’t want to take on a series with that storyline. She told me, “Trust me you are going to like these.” I finally agreed and was immediately hooked. Later she told me she knew it was done deal because of the premise of nonrelated individuals coming together as a family, and the Native American components.
After numerous conversations about the books with said friend, she challenged me to write what I thought would happen after Breaking Dawn. My challenge: Write a sequel that stuck as close as possible to Stephenie Meyer’s style, including no MA sex scenes. Harvest Moon, my cannon story, is the result of this challenge. My story does include two additional characters, but after explaining my story line to my friend she agreed that these individuals wouldn’t void my attempt. Several individuals that have inquired about the history behind my story have asked – What do I get from following through with the challenge? Nothing, other than the fun of attempting to do something I never have done which is writing fiction.
In regards to what I like to read? Anything that is well written. I don’t run from AU, all human, or graphic stories as long as the author has a plot and can carry it through. I have a twisted sense of humor that often comes through in my writing, so I appreciate any story that carries good humor.
I know many writers on this site have long profiles, so I’ll continue to update as I think of something interesting to say. Perhaps it is telling that at this time the profile is so short.

Summary: 
Banner by the awesome Frozen Soldier! She is amazing!
 
We had survived the Volturi and were finally able to enjoy life without fear...until new threats arose. These were more sinister than any before...because the most terrifying one came from within me...
The lead figure took a few long steps toward us, and I felt Bella stiffen beside me and heard her gasp of pain. Hands moved toward the cowl of the robe, pushing it backwards. The moonlight made a valiant attempt to shine through the clouds highlighting him as the angel he’d always seemed. Bright red eyes scanned the group as a sneer claimed his face, twisting it. He looked toward the assassins beside him, after one last cold look toward us, he gave his order. “Destroy them.”
The family tensed at the callousness in his voice.
“Edward…” Bella breathed out from beside me. Pain laced through her voice.
The figure hesitated only slightly as the weak light framed his bronze hair and the scar along his cheek. Then as he turned away, the robed figures dashed past him toward us.
“Henry!” my family screamed around me as we braced for impact. “Remember our training,” I shouted. “And if possible bring Edward back alive…”
Sequel to Harvest Moon, my Shimmer Award, Vampie, and Twilighted OC Character award winning story.

Summary:
Banner compliments of CrimsonIceGoddess - YOU ROCK my dear!
   
It is amazing how quickly life can resume normalcy after a traumatic event. It's not that the inhabitants of the scenario don't know they are rebounding, but the force of the universe pulls them back into its patterns without their consent. Everything will not be the same, but the normal routine is enhanced, flavored by the bittersweet taste of change or loss in any form.
Bella told me she had once envisioned our lives as the complex pattern of a rug, the colors and textures intermingling, each individual but, when placed together, producing a beautiful creation. If challenged, I would have most likely used a musical analogy. I would have compared our lives to experiencing a musical performance by one of the masters.
Beethoven...Bach...or if you wanted a little strife, Wagner. Most at one time or another had performed their masterpieces within European chapels. I could envision the rise and fall of the notes, as they would weave their spell. The light in the building as it filtered through stained glass, creating a dizzying array of colors. The smell from beeswax candles permeating the room. Modern musical halls lacked this perfect simplicity. Yes...this would have been my analogy.
Little was I to know that Fate had much in store for me. Before she was through with me, I would barely resemble the boy I'd been...
What happens to the Cullens after the Volturi left. Edward and Bella begin life together and face both heartbreak after their lives are irrevocably changed by losses of family and friends, and immeasurable joy as the events of their lives unfold.
