Featured Story of the Month for June 2008 - Why i'd do it all Again by Mare
honey:
popping in really quick to say congrats Mare! But I don't have a mouthful yet to say, well I do, I just don't have the time to post it all right now.
All I will say, is that I FINALLY started reading this one just like last week and have seriously fallen in love with it!
If you haven't checked it out yet, which most of the AC veterans probably have because I swear I'm the last one finally getting around to it. (yes Mare, it's ok to smite me for being slow), but to all the newbies, this is worth the read! Go check it out!
And I'll be back with lots more to say! I've been quiet in the feature thread for a while now. I guess it's high time I cause a ruckus again.
Rose:
Personally I think you came off really well as Brian Mare.
Okay, Here's another question, when it came to writing Paris and her perspective, what made you decide to have Nick as....what's the word, okay, clingy as he was to her and so reluctant to let her go?
Oh and another, what gave you the idea to have AJ and Nick actually share a place in the story?
What was your favorite scene to write?
What is your favorite line from the story?
Told ya I'd be Oprah later today lol.
Nijntje:
Congrats Mare!
I absolutely love this story to death!!
I too will be back with Oprah-like questions later!!

Another question: How did you come up with the idea to write this story? What made you want to tell the NG story?

I read this question last night but had to sleep through to figure out the answer and then it dawned on me, that is was all VH1's fault.
I was so horribly disappointed in their Behind the Music they did on the guys it made me want to document things myself lol Seriously, they didn't tell us anything we didn't already know. Brian had heart surgery, the guys were jerks about it, Howie's sister died, blah blah blah we knew all that.
There was SO much they could have touched upon but didn't especially all the drama with Nick during the solo time and what really happened during Aj's rehab. So I pretty much decided what I wanted to do was write something in real time-ish about them going into the studio again after all that drama because there was SO much drama back then I always thought it would make a great story.
*kicks VH1*

Some days I make it through, and then there's nights that never end. I wish that I could believe, That there's a day you'll come back to me. But still I have to say, I'd do it all again. Just want you to know....
That help any??? Though, I had to get help for the second half of the chorus - I drew a blank - haha!!!!!
And....in retrospect to the whole Paris Hilton thing - you did what all them news people did - you focused on the relationship & how crazy it was, but unlike them, you showed it from Nick's point of view - very nicely, I may add. :D

LOL thanks Lenni, that really did help. I can't tell you how many times I have sung along with that song and never even realized my title was in there. Probably because in my mind it has always come from Memories.
