LOL But I'd do it All Again doesn't quite have the same ring.

I could see a few fanfics making it as a real story. Maria's Yesterday's Blue Skies comes to mind as well as Broken. I agree about the AU thing. I think it would be much easier to see an AU done as an original fiction and i'm also not a huge reader of AUs so not totally sure. I'm sure there are a lot of great ones out there. I think Steph's idea for Rewind would make a great OF as well.

You should try sending Shadow Woods to some other publishers! It's the kind of book the YA crowd would really love.
Thanks for the Broken mention! I know just how I would de-Backstreet-ize it, but I keep second guessing myself and changing my mind on basic decisions like point of view and setting, and so I just keep starting it over and never really getting anywhere with it. I guess if I do finish a draft of it one day, I'll feel like a real writer, because I don't revise nearly as much on my fanfics as I have for that project LOL.

^ It's not as fun when you do original fiction. It's taking me ten years to work on this story i'm writing lol Making it about the boys is fun, taking them out is sad :( poor boys of course unless you're Howie in which case he's like "Ha! Suck on that guys! Now you know how it feels!!"
Yeah, i'm probably going to send out to some other places, it's hard when you don't have a literary agent. I could just go to my old publisher and probably get it done but they suck ass so i'm avoiding them this time around and trying for a bigger publishing company.
