Greetings! Long time writer (non-AC), first time poster :)
« on: March 04, 2009, 10:08:55 PM »
Hello! My name is Jacquie and I have just discovered AC during a recent bout of late-night insomnia. :)

I have been writing BSB fanfics on-and-off for nearly twelve years now. I have a site, but it's woefully neglected and hasn't been updated since just after my first child was born? Geez... I don't remember. Horrible, right? I'm married and a stay-at-home mother of two. My husband of nearly a decade still doesn't understand/realize how much of a BSB fan I am/have been.  :D I've always meant to finish the stories I've posted, however, with the intervening years, my writing style has changed and it's difficult to return to some of them. 

I currently write non-BSB romance novels - nothing published, but it's a dream. I think I got hooked by the instant gratification of online fanfic publishing. Hee hee!

I love reading BSB fanfics on my phone while I'm curled up in bed late at night and my family's sleeping. It's been fun watching the evolution of the fanfics over the years and so lovely to read the posts of many other like-minded authors/fans.

Here's to more great reads! Cheers!

Welcome, Jacquie! :)  Was your site also Kindagetmego?  If so, I think I remember it!  Definitely the title, at least LOL.

Welcome Jacquie! Woot for stay home moms of two with husbands who will never fully understand our love of the BSB! (And for fellow insomniacs as well. There's lots of us here!)

lol I was just thinking it drives me nuts, cause I keep wanting to spell it like my daughter and it's confusing me. But you're probably Jacqueline, huh?

Thanks for the welcomes and comiserations. :D It's now 3:28am (thanks to the time change) and I'm again the only one awake in my house.

Yep, Kindagetmego was/is my page. I have great intentions, but then y'all know about those... LOL

I am a Jacqueline, but usually only get called that by my mother and it's accompanied by my middle name when she's annoyed with me.  ;)

I was so awake when you posted this. In fact, I was partying my butt off. ;D
