Author has written 3 stories for Twilight.

Hello! My name is the Setting Swan. I'm a bit of a Twilight Saga fan-girl, but I really hate the way that Stephanie Meyer handled Bella Swan's character; I think that Bella could have been so much better, but Meyer was too concentrated on making Edward swoonworthy to pay that much attention to her heroine - which I really hate. Plus there's all of these problems with the entire series.

As such, (and because I'm a writer) any and all fanfictions I have will be concentrated around creating a "Better Bella" or good OCs. If you're interested in reading any of them, see below - where I list all of the fanfictions I have and am working on and am considering.

Completed:

None currently

In-progress:

Ace of Twilight - Edward/OC/Bella, mostly canon, eventual canon divergence, slow-burn romance with OC. "For as long as I can remember, I have wondered how I would die."
"Life was tough back, then, when I was still alive."

Long before teenage Bella Swan moves to Forks, Washington, 19-year old "Ace" lives in our world and juggles studying cell science and her job as a waitress at an old-fashioned cafe. However, one day, the ex-boyfriend of her younger sister breaks into her apartment, looking for her sister, and murders her in cold blood.
But Ace wakes up inside the head of a newborn Bella Swan.
17 years later, when the two move to live with Bella's father, Charlie Swan, they meet the mysterious Edward Cullen and his family. And everything changes for both Bella and Ace.

Genesis - Aro/Caius/Marcus/OC, Jasper/OC, Edward/OC, slight Edward/Bella, OC-centric, AU, canon divergence, probably Mary-Sue-ish!OC but let's see since I'm curious (feel free to let me know your thoughts on her character). "She is the progenitor of our kind, the only power many of us worship; she has powers and beauty beyond compare, with all the wisdom of a thousand lifetimes. Out of respect and reverence, she is called Genesis, though some know her better as Sahar."
Isabella Swan runs to Volterra in an attempt to save the love of her life from certain death in angering the rulers of vampire-kind, the Volturi, with the sister of the man she loves. But while in Italy, she will discover a truth behind the existence of vampires, and she invokes the wrath of one who is much more powerful than she and may end up bringing about her ultimate demise. If Edward Cullen doesn't stop it.
The problem?
He's not sure he wants to.

Persephone - Edward/Bella (with changes), Bella-centric, very AU, much canon divergence, vampire!Bella, nearly traditional-vampire!Bella. "In the beginning, there was only the Goddess. She was Light and Darkness, Beauty and Ugliness, Serenity and Anxiety, Peace and War incarnate. But, at one point, She left the Darkness, disappearing into nothingness but leaving an orb of power behind - one that paved the way for humanity to one day enter the World."
In the small town of Forks, Washington, any newcomers are immediately seen as different from everyone else - as is the curse of small towns.
However, when a mysterious, beautiful stranger moves into town without warning, everyone cannot help but wonder what is wrong with her - the girl with eyes the color of fire.
Everyone finds themselves entranced by the stranger, and that includes the Cullens - the resident odd family that most were wary of and some mistreated.
And when the truth of the girl is unveiled, the world will never be the same again.

Swan - Edward/SI-OC!Bella, SI-OC!Bella-centric, AU, canon divergence. "If I'm going to be Bella Swan, I'm going to be a kickass Bella Swan. No one - vampire, human, or otherwise - is going to be able to control me. I am my own person."
Isabelle Janet Queen was just an ordinary girl who grew up into an ordinary woman who had an ordinary death. What happened next was the extraordinary part.
After dying, Isabelle woke up again - this time as a 10-year old Isabella Marie Swan, a character in a book series Isabelle had previously hated. Needless to say, sh*t's gonna hit the fan.
