Featured Story of the Month for February 2009 : Casual by cabybakes

I know you've seen me in the Reviews section of this story. It's absolutely one of my favorites right now. I'm always excited to see that there's an update. I love the conflicted relationship between these two although I must admit, like others, I feel like smacking Quinn upside the head and saying "wth is wrong with you girl!?!" lol. Sometimes I thinks she's just plain :crazy:....but then again, what fun would that be to read? hehe...I love the way the story is written, I love the articles that she writes, how it applies to her current state of mind. I love how you add a song in the articles too, to help with the mood of the article. At this point, I just want her to say those 3 little words to him..before he goes on tour. But I'm sure you know what your doing..and keeping us in suspense of that moment I'm sure will pay off big. Keep up the great work...I love this story!

Thank you so much!!! I know...Quinn is very frustrating, to me even and I created her. This story would be no fun to read if they were magically in love and drama-free!!!
Did you read the last chapter that I just posted? It is the last one before Nick leaves...I am guessing from what you said here that you haven't, so go check it out!!!

Hey Darby,
okay back with some more questions lol
These questions are geared more to people who haven't read your story but are curious as to what it's about.
Who would you define as the lead character and why? (Quinn or Nick)
Is it told in third person or first person?
Do you see yourself writing a sequel?
If you could only classify it as one genre, which would it be? (Drama, romance, angst etc...)
Is there a villian in this one and if so who is it and what makes them so bad?
Do you enjoy ending your chapters with cliffhangers?
Generally how often do you find yourself updating?
:)

Thanks for the questions, Mare!
Who would you define as the lead character and why? (Quinn or Nick)
In the early parts of the story I would say Quinn, however, Nick gets equal time later on in the story. So I would say there is a male and female lead.
Is it told in third person or first person?
The story is told in the third person, however, Quinn is a writer, so her columns appear throughout the story and they are written in first person.
Do you see yourself writing a sequel?
I've contemplated it...will I actually do it? Not sure.
If you could only classify it as one genre, which would it be? (Drama, romance, angst etc...)
That is tough...I think it has all of those elements. I hate calling it a romance although I am sure that is how a lot of people may classify it. It has a ton of drama and angst in it...and its not a mushy love story...its about two real people with issues trying to figure out how to function in an undefined, casual relationship.
Is there a villian in this one and if so who is it and what makes them so bad?
Other than Quinn - no...she is her own worst enemy...
Do you enjoy ending your chapters with cliffhangers?
Not particularly, sometimes that is just where the chips fall...
Generally how often do you find yourself updating?
Ideally, I would update weekly, however, realistically, I probably update every two weeks...
mare:
Every two weeks is a good thing Darby, considering the amount of authors on AC who never update ever! (including me) lol
The whole column concept sounds like a great idea.
