Tie Me Down to this World

02.23.2010: Tie Me Down to this World is going on hiatus for an indefinite period of time. I understand that some of you might be disappointed by this, but for personal reasons, I no longer feel as though I can accomplish my goal of completing this story to the best of my ability. I may be gone for a few weeks or a few months, but please know that as soon as I am able, I will finish this story that I love. Thank you all for reading and for being so kind in your reviews/twitter/twilighted forums/etc. I promise that someday, Jasper and Alice will get the ending that you all, as readers, deserve.

All the Difference Links:

Chapter 13:

Alice's Porsche.

Chapter 18:

The bell Jasper gives Alice. Actually, I only chose this bell because the handle looks like my silverware.

The lantern Jasper gives Alice.

The mirror Jasper gives Alice.

The necklace Jasper gives Alice.

I realize that none of these things (except for maybe the mirror) were actually made before 1950. But that's okay, because in my mind, they actually look totally different. These are just the closest pictures I could find online.
