I am curious about this because I have had it happen to me recently. Have any of you had someone you know (that is not a BSB fan) read your fanfics? And if they did, what was their reaction? I keep forgetting my facebook and twitter are connected so I post links when I update and have had people tell me they read my work. So far its been positive, my manager told me I am good at descriptions. So have any of you let or had people read your work?

My mom used to avidly read my fan fictions - back in the day of the original Planet Backstreet and The Legend of the Bone Ranger, lol - but other than you guys nobody's really read it recently. I let my sister read a chapter of Something Beautiful but in the interest of finding out if she thought the storyline would work if I adapted it for an original fiction. I'd changed names and a couple situation type things in the chapter she read though so I don't know if it counts.

The only people who've read my stuff is other fanfic writers/readers. I don't link my Facebook and Twitter because I don't want my other friends/family/work colleagues reading my stuff.
I remember once updating my Facebook by mistake saying something like "next chapter posted" and my friend wanted to know what I was on about. I told her I was writing a fanfic and she had no idea what it was. I quickly deleted my post and made some silly little explanation up and she never asked anything else about it.

I also had my co worker told me she read Tales From The Drive Thru and thought it was hilarious. Then my manager said he was reading Not The Other
Guy and enjoyed the scene where Nick quit his job at the video game store...he said he could picture it as it happened and that I made a nice visual for him. So that made me feel nice lol
Carter-Orange:
OMG aren't you bothered that they read your stuff? You're braver than me! I haven't got the confidence to show anyone my writing, well apart from posting it here :)
