Any idea when the Eclipse round might start?

FIRST PLACE
24601 by giselle-lx
The thing that Edward can’t admit is that you don’t let go of who you are.
SECOND PLACE
O, Lost by Carson Dyle
Bella’s reaction to their breakup is well documented. But what about Edward? Was he content, knowing he’d returned her to safety and the chance for a fulfilling life? Did he celebrate, go on a killing binge, join eHarmony.com? Maybe it went something like this…
THIRD PLACE
A Good Liar by Raum
The first time the Grim Reaper visited Edward, it was in the form of the Spanish influenza. The second time, Death had the lovely face of Bella Swan.
BEST USE OF PROMPT
Sun Ray by Raum
Aro’s take on New Moon. Why can’t an old man enjoy some leisure time in peace?

As If I Never Existed by KristenLynn

Contingency by MegsD2
As a soldier, trained to protect in both his human life and his immortal one, how does Jasper Whitlock manage when he learns that his mate is on the way to risk her own life for another and there’s nothing he can do to stop her?
Did I Do This? by idealskeptic
Esme has always been the glue that holds her immortal vampire together. Can her strength endure when Alice, Edward, and Bella are in Italy facing the Volturi?
Diverging Roads by bonnysammy
Bella’s life has taken an unexpected turn from a traumatic experience. James’ attack held more sway than previously thought. In response, she has ostracized herself for the safety of others. How will she cope?
Divide, The by Aleeab4u
Bella’s human friends unwittingly sabotage Alice’s party plans, altering the events in NM. Given the chance, can Edward and Bella avoid broken hearts? AU
Firebrand by smexy4smarties
I can see your heart in your eyes; it beats and you wince. It stutters and your vision skips, passes right over me to stare across the cafeteria at that table. He sat there. But he left you. I’m here.
Freefall by karenec
When I left Forks, I knew I was nothing without Bella. But knowing now that the world is without her has left me broken and burning and falling.
In Pieces by idealskeptic
When Bella starts receiving mysterious puzzle pieces in the mail, Charlie takes notice and works with the unknown sender to try and help his daughter put the pieces of herself back together.
Indomitable by Bells Just Bells
Emmett loves his family, and always dives in head first to protect them. So what is he supposed to do when protecting them is taken out of his control?

When Aro decides that Bella should be changed into a vampire in Volterra, how will Edward react? Will he just stand by and let everything he’s tried to stop happen?
Less Than A Second by MidnightAriel

Letter, The by bonnysammy
A mother’s love (and meddling) knows no bounds. Unbeknownst to Edward, Esme gets in touch with Bella.
Letters from Esme by katmom
A mother’s love (and meddling) knows no bounds. Unbeknownst to Edward, Esme stays in touch with Bella.
My Impotence by SqueakyZorro
As Forks’ police chief, Charlie was used to being in charge. While he loved having Bella with him, he’d experienced a rude shock when he realized that a father can’t truly be “in charge” of his teenage daughter. During the ups and downs of Bella’s relationship with Edward, Charlie understood for the first time the true meaning of impotence.
Not So Empty Pages by LJ Summers
Required to “write through her pain” after Edward leaves her in New Moon, Bella finds support in online anonymity and, in an effort to flush the Cullens out, she actually divulges their true nature. But internet anonymity is not really as comprehensive as she had believed.
Out of Phase by Rel8tivity
The werewolf gene has passed Jacob by, leaving him completely mortal. What will happen now that he can no longer protect Bella?
Reverie by lovepath
While Edward hunted, how did Bella survive her fear that he might leave her…again? A post-New Moon interlude, rated T.
Role Reversal by Glitterb1234
Painful truths become apparent on the night of Bella’s birthday party, leaving her feeling she has no choice but to end her relationship with Edward. Will an unexpected disaster be enough to change her mind?
Shifting by twitina
Who knew so much could change in the blink of an eye? I’d already lost Sam, so losing my father when I lost myself shouldn’t have come as a surprise.
Slips Away by KayMarieXW
What might have happened if Jacob was a bit further away when Bella dived off the cliff? How much difference could a few miles or minutes really make?
Spirit on the Wind by angeleyes1uk
A poem inspired by The Song of Hiawatha by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. An upset to the balance of La Push’s guardian spirits culminates in Leah’s first shift.
We Tend Not To Get Attacked By Bears by as63926
Bella always had dreams of things happening around her. What if she had a dream after her birthday party of Edward leaving? What would change?
What Comes From Cullen by kimmydonn
A young vampire with a similar story shakes Marcus out of his fog, for a little while.
Who We Are by dooba
It will be as if I never existed, Edward said. What if he comes back for his Bella and finds out she has made herself believe that indeed he was never real?
Written on the Wind by Openhome
What would happen if what you are demanded that you lose everything you love the most? This is the story of one woman’s courage in the face of immeasurable loss.
GO READ! You can now view the New Moon entries of the Canon Tour! There are twenty-nine entries. If you read all of them, that’s roughly 182,000 words(!) for you to enjoy through February 7th!
When you’re satisfied that you’ve read all you want, GO VOTE for your three favorite entries and the entry you think best used a prompt.
Ballot results will be announced on February 8th!
With just three more days in the submission period for the New Moon round, I’m extending the deadline! I’m sorry for the sudden change, but after receiving so many emails and direct messages asking me to extend, and after not receiving as many entries due to the holidays, I think it’d be good to bump the deadline up by a few days. I want this round to be as awesome as all the others have been!
So, for all you slackers who were with family and junk for the holidays (pfft), you have until JANUARY 27TH to submit your entry. I hope you can! :)

Hey, you, read this!
As of this round, I’m adding a new placement slot for Best Use of Prompt! This will be a separate award placement from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd placements that will continue to operate the way they did in previous rounds. In the ballot, there will be a fourth voting option in which readers will vote on the best story out of those that used one of the Canon Tour’s round prompts. There will be textual, visual and musical prompts.
———
Rules for the New Moon Round
What’s Allowed:
- K through M ratings.
- You can submit up to two entries.
- Stories between 2,000 and 15,000 words. Unlike in previous rounds, I’ll not be splitting stories into chapters (sorry, it just takes too long!). If you need your 15k split up into “chapters,” give headings that will suit your needs accordingly.
- Collaborations between two writers are welcome.
- Canon and canon alternate universe (AU) fics. In general, anything that is canon or is an AU with strong canon elements will be accepted. Read more about what constitutes as canon and canon AU.
- Stories about any of the canon characters; this includes the major characters, the minor ones and those who were just a name on a page. You may write original characters, provided they are closely related to one or more of the canon characters and/or canon world/timeline. Writing about canon, human characters in the canon world is just fine, too.
- Stories that reflect the timeline/round that the Canon Tour is currently in. This is the New Moon round, so you’re able to submit fics that take place from the opening of New Moon, until the very end of the book. I will also accept post-New Moon / Pre-Eclipse stories. The Twilight Lexicon has a great timeline if you’re unsure of what dates this round encompasses.
What’s NOT Allowed:
- All-human (AH), real people fic (RPF) or crossover fics. While writing about canon, human characters in the canon world is a-okay, CEOwards and the like will be automatically rejected.
- Grammatically incorrect content. If you need a beta, I encourage you to get one through Project Team Beta or Sparkly Red Pen. If there are multiple errors within the first page of your entry, it will be returned to you for you to fix and resubmit. This will be done as many times as necessary.
- While you’re welcome to tell people you’re participating in the contest, DO NOT post your entries on your profile before announcements or publicly (or privately!) announce to anyone which entry is yours (betas are the one exception, of course). If I find out you’re doing this, I will remove your entry—no second chances. Please know that I will be watching for this. Seriously, this is me:

- Author’s notes that reveal who you or your beta(s) are. Keep A/Ns functional, not personal. I will edit A/Ns that reveal personal details and aren’t merely straightforward/factual.
- Entries that are already posted or related to pre-existing twifics. No outtakes.
- Plagiarism. Apparently I have to say this. If I find out you’ve plagiarized another’s work, you’ll be removed from the round entirely, and I will not accept entries from you again. Don’t even try it. It’s a waste of your time and mine.
More on What Is and Isn’t Canon / Canon AU:
- Technical definition of canon: a list of writings, officially recognized as genuine; a list of the works of an author that are accepted as authentic; a body of principles, rules, standards, or norms. Fan fiction is, of course, not genuine/authentic, but it can be nearly so by adhering to canon rules and standards. One of the strongest examples of “canon” fan fiction is that of a POV adaptation of a scene from the original books (e.g., Edward’s POV in Eclipse). Missing moments usually come as a close second. Canon fan fics aim to preserve the rules of the fictional world, as well as major events, romantic pairings and characters’ personalities.
- A canon AU (or “canon-like”) fan fic is one which deviates from one or more events, makes a character slightly “out of character” (OOC), changes the timeline, etc., but still attempts to keep a “canon feel” to the story in some or many ways. Examples of canon AU fan fics would be things like New Moon AUs, where Edward returns to Forks before Bella goes cliff diving; having a character die who didn’t in the original saga; or altering the timeline to have the Cullens move to Forks in Bella’s senior year; maybe Carlisle is more like Dr. Kevorkian than previously known. These small changes can yield significantly different storylines, but still feel true to canon.
- A note about non-canon pairings: Because these contests aim to provide more canon and canon-like works in the fandom, it’s highly unlikely that I will accept non-canon pairings. This has somewhat to do with the word count limit. Bending the canon universe enough to logically allow for a non-canon pairing set after the events of Twilight is difficult and rarely done well; doing so in fewer than 15,000 words is even less likely to be logical (e.g., Jasper suddenly realizing he wants to sex Bella up, rather than bite her on her birthday has no place here). If you really want to write a non-canon pairing and think you’ve tweaked the canon universe and/or characters in a logical fashion, feel free to email or PM your idea, and I’ll tell you whether I’ll accept it; if I won’t, I’ll explain why, so you can decide if you want to change your idea somehow. Sorry for the inconvenience, but there are already a lot of contests and community efforts that promote non-canon pairings.
Where/How to Send Entries:
- Send your entries in .doc or .docx format to thecanontour@gmail.com.

Admin Solar Note: Thank you to all whom participated, read, reviewed and voted in this round! Just as with last time, the quality of the entries was great, so it was another close round! For the longest time, I thought there were going to be five first-place winners, and I was admittedly wondering how that was going to go over; however, it got narrowed down in the end.
Below you’ll find a list of the winners and participants for this round. In time, I hope the authors will upload their stories to their own accounts, so I’ll be able to favorite them on the Canon Tour FFn profile. Until then, you can at least get in touch with the authors!

FIRST PLACE
Edward’s Awakening by duskwatcher2153
There was a sea change in Edward’s attitude toward Bella Swan between the time he’d left after that first disastrous Biology class and when he returned to Forks. It was on that dark highway to Alaska, that Edward realized the girl was more than just a tempting fragrance. Incredibly, something dark and tender was awakened from a place he’d long thought dead.
SECOND PLACE
Omission by kimmydonn
What if Edward stayed in Alaska a day longer?
THIRD PLACE
The All-Seeing I by latessitrice

Crush by karenec

Only Bella can surprise a mindreader. “I’ll need your speed, your perfect memory, and your beautiful handwriting.”

Paved with Bad Intentions by KayMarieXW
With all the other Cullens otherwise engaged, Jasper & Emmett take it on themselves to keep an eye on Bella. Despite Edward’s paranoia about the potential disasters that could befall her, how difficult could it really be to keep Bella safe?
Prom Tickets and Other Moments by duskwatcher2153
The dark, the light. The sweet, the bitter. Fluff and angst. They are all two sides of the same coin. A collection of canon moments from Twilight in that time after the return from Phoenix and before the prom.

The two newest vegetarians in the Cullen family have to take the human girl on the run. Exposed to things they’ve never seen, blood they long for, and pasts that they can’t and don’t want to remember, Alice and Jasper are fighting for each other and themselves as much as they are for Bella.
Writers, readers and laptop warriors,

Anyway, I’m not so easily deterred, so let’s try again!
It’s pretty and, I hope, better than the last. We shall see.
Remember, remember, results on the 5th of November.
Carry on,
