Fic Talk > Featured Story of the Month
FS for April: Curtain Call
Sakabelle:
Congrats on being featured this month, Julie! I love Curtain Call, and I love Cary in that story so it's interesting to see how you came up with her character. Was there a particular reason you decided to set this story in the TIU era? Was it just because it was the most recent, or were there other factors?
mare:
Hey Julie,
Here are a few questions for you. First of all congrats on the best author win! What went through your mind when you found out you won that?
Onto the story:
Where did you come up with the idea for Curtain Call and how soon after your initial idea did you start to write it?
I know you have mentioned before you aren't comfortable writing in first person, so why did you choose first person for this story?
Did you base Cary off of anyone in particular?
What made you go with cancer again and was it a tough decision considering the popularity of Broken?
Carter-Orange:
Yay Julie, I love Curtain Call. Will have to think of some questions for you :)

So, tell us one thing about the story that no one knows, or few know? (That you can reveal anyway.)

LOL yeah, not like he doesn't have an excuse... :D
Hm... something few know... like that I was going to call it either "On With the Show" or "The Show Must Go On," until you suggested "Curtain Call"? LOL I was like, "Oh! Yeah! That's so much better!" I had just been listening to that Queen song on repeat for probably hours as I researched and planned.

I also enjoyed reading how Nick and Cary's relationship developed in the course of the story so far. It seemed to flow very nicely. I never read Broken, so I can't compare notes. I think you have captured Nick's personality quite well in this story!

Thank you! I'm glad you like the way Nick and Cary's relationship has developed; I wasn't sure how that was going to go or if they had the right chemistry for it, so I appreciate that! :)
