What's everyone writing these days?
Carrie:
I'm with Mare on the lost interest in reading fan fiction :( as for writing, I too have kinda lost motivation.... Fatigue has been a constant thing with me lately (my body really sucks) so I spend most of my spare time resting after work & on the weekends.
Mare, you mentioned Inner Hell and I think the last time I updated that was back in November - holy crap :o I hate seeing things left hanging so I am hoping to be able to finish the stories I have started on Absolute Chaos. I don't like to rush stories just to finish them.

1. Is there a story that you're writing that you're particularly excited about? Tell us all about it.
"Fireflies". It's about Nick and the other guys. While they're out in a cabin writing songs, Nick experiences strange things he can't explain. Is something wrong with him or are there things in this world we know nothing about yet?

I've just read and added that story to my favourites, can't wait for more :)
TheDistantHeart:
Exactly what I have been looking for! ;D
1. Is there a story that you're writing that you're particularly excited about? Tell us all about it.
Yes! For now it's called Ice Cold Blood, but it might change later. Anyway, it's a fantasy/vampire fanfic. No, not about Twilight. It's not like some random girl moves to a new school/town and meets this drop dead gorgeous guy which just HAPPENS to be one of the Backstreet Boys. Nah, I stopped copying movies/books/series (I used to quite do this in my early days of writing hehe). It's about a girl who's pretty sarcastic and can be quite pessimistic. She can also be rebellious at times, if she wants to. She has an older brother who's permanently paralysed because of an accident. And she has a best friend who is a huge fan of, now you get it, the Backstreet Boys. But the main girl hates them... for a reason nobody knows. But her brother and her best friend are the ones who will find out later.
Ahh.. I'm so excited, I want to tell lots more but I'm afraid I will spoil stuff! I just think this idea is pretty good and I don't think anyone else has written about it before. :) At least, I hope so! :D
2. Is there a story that you're STUCK on right now? Tell us all about it.
Two stories, in fact. The one that is on AC "Don't Wanna Lose You Now". I can't come up with ANYTHING and I have no idea if the story will be any more exciting or fun for people to read. I love to write drama, but I have the feeling this kind of drama is maybe a bit too much for me to handle. Like, I can't find my way into it.
The second is the new one I'm writing on now, Ice Cold Blood. I've posted a topic in here, in General Discussion, where I asked for some help. Anyway, I haven't finished chapter one yet, and I don't know how to continue already! All those scenes and ideas of what could happen in the story is haunting me and my fingers are itching to write them down. So, is it good to write the scenes down in a separate document? I think that's a good idea so I can empty my mind and focus on the point I am in the story now. But the thing is, it's hard to write it down since I'm not fluent in English and I sometimes don't know what words to pick. Then I try to think of the Dutch word I'd choose, but even then it's hard, ha!
3. Is there a story you're reading right now? Tell us all about it.
Yep, a few: 1. Ten Things by Carter-Orange. I love this story. Although I always forget to review it. :-X I forget to review in general, I should work on that.
Anyway, I love the situation between the girl and AJ and how they fight one moment and kiss the other. I love the personality of the girl and I can't wait to see how their marriage councelations (gah, I hope I spelled that correctly) turn out and how their relationship turns out in general. Oh, and I can't wait for the moments where she can strike the other things on her list. :)
2. Song for the Undead. It even has its own website! (Yes, I am always reading the story on dreamers-sanctuary.com hehe :)) Like I said in a review, I can play the story in my head like a movie. I can imagine every little thing. By the way, I bought a zombie movie just because it was on the list of things that inspired that story haha! I forgot the name but it was about a bunch of boys and girls who are filming an amateur horror movie. And the whole movie is from the point of the camera. I hated the open end though.
Oh, I'm getting off track. Anyway, I love this story so much. Definitely gonna be one of my favourites! By the way, I have to mention that I love the fact how each person has a unique personality! (I think Nick and Riley are cute together lol)
3. 00Carter. I have read maybe 3 or 5 chapters. I need to continue reading this story very soon because it has been a few weeks since I read this for the last time. But I already love it and it seems hilarious but above all, very promising! Also this story has its own website! I still crack up about the section where you read about the characters and it's like you broke in their system lol. When this message appeared that they got me and stuff, I was looking like " :o" first but then cracked up. That was brilliant! :-\ Oh and I love the introduction vid hehe.
Anyway, I can't say much about this story yet, except for the fact that I love LancyBassy!
I forgot one! 4. Ink Stains by McKelly. Ah geez, I haven't checked this story for a while. There you have it. If I read too many stories I start to forget others, or I confused two stories with eachother hehe. I hope one of the other stories finishes soon, so I can catch up on this one!
And as I was scrolling through my favorite stories' list, I also saw these two stories: True Love by SweetHeart and Last Christmas by rebellious_one . I have some stories in my favorites list in Internet Explorer and I saw True Love inbetween. When I read the title, nothing came up. So, as I read the first few chapters, I remembered what it was about again! Will have to keep this in mind though because I'm getting often emails about this story being updated. :)
As for Last Christmas, I don't think I've read the last updated chapter. AHHH! There are too many good stories!
Anyways, I will keep that story in mind too. ;)
There are still some other stories that I used to read, but I paused otherwise it's becoming WAY too much hehe.
4. Is there a story that you wish you were reading but they haven't updated in forever? Tell us all about it.
Satan's Playground by rebellious_one is the first one that jumps into my mind! This story is one of the first BSB fanfics I read. I was so into it and when I noticed the date it had been updated last, I yelled "WHAT?!". Should be continued, definitely! It's an exciting story!
And second, Life According To Baylee. That story, and Song for the Undead, had got me thinking about it for days! I was always wondering how it would continue. I HAVE to admit that when I saw the summary of the story, that I wasn't much interested. But, as many people talked about it, curiosity got the best of me and I read the first chapter... then I read the second, third, fourth, fifth.. AND I COULDN'T STOP! Gah, it's such a pity it hasn't been updated in forever, meh. :( Also, I could play this story in my head as if it's a movie.
Oh, there is also this other story. I think it's called In the Nick of Time but not sure if it's posted on AC? It's about when Nick gets into an accident and acts like a little boy but later he has moments where he acts his old mature self and other times he acts like the little kid again. And the guys have to help to get him to be his own self forever again. I don't know if it's still updated or not, but I haven't noticed anything. Or I'm just a blind chicken. Hmmm, I should check if the story is updated again or not. I am still willing to read it if it will be updated though!
TheDistantHeart:
:o I don't think Life According To Baylee applies to my post above anymore. Just got an email about an update! 8-) Such a coincidence. :bateyes:

Wow, thank you so much!! We so appreciate our AC reviews, but we don't get any feedback outside of AC, so I didn't know people even read the stories on my site off of AC these days. Good to know! :) I love AC, but I had fun putting together those websites too LOL. Anyway, thanks so much for all your comments; seeing this post totally made my night!! :)
And "Diary of the Dead"! That's the movie you bought, right? That's awesome! I thought it was cool movie, better than I thought it would be. The zombie clown was my favorite! LMAO
