I was thinking yesterday about how we all like to write different things and the reasons I like to write what I do, and I came to the conclusion that there are three types of fanfic writers:
1. Writers who write about things they wish would happen, or their greatest fantasies.
2. Writers who write about things they hope never happen, or their worst nightmares.
3. Writers who write about things that really did happen, either in the Boys' lives or their own lives.
I'm sure most of us do all three, to some extent, but which category would you say you fall into most of the time?

I missed a lot of chatter in here today, I'll try to get caught up.
I think it's a mixture of all three, but probably the last one the most. I've taken elements from my own life and turned them into a plotline for my Nick romance stories, and of course most of my one-shot stories and Running Up That Hill are based on the boys real lives. As far as writing about things I wish would never happen, I do write about those things on occasion, but they tend to upset me.
I guess some of my romance stuff could be classified as fantasies, but a lot of the emotional trauma I put my characters through is either something I've gone through in my own life, or someone I know has gone through. That being said I've written the classic "Nick falls in love with a fan" story, and of course that's a fantasy. Obviously I wish that would happen.
