--- Quote from: DelphinaCarter on August 01, 2012, 11:00:29 PM ---00Carter is one of those stories I'd seen on most recent a lot, never clicked on it because I wasn't sure...but one day I just went "what could be bad about a story where Nick's a secret agent?"
I'm so glad I decided to read it because its one of my favorites. I adore that story! It's hilarious and has some serious moments, but I laugh so hard at a lot of the jokes. I really enjoy it!

Aww thanks Tracy! I feel like that story for me is an example of writing because you love it not cause others love it LOL. Cause I think we laugh at it more than most people do lol. I'm definitely glad you enjoy it.

To be honest, it's probably not a story I would ever click on either LOL; I wasn't even sure about writing it when Rose originally suggested it, but I'm glad I did. It's not for everyone, but I love it. I'm glad you gave it a try and found it worth reading! We just started working on the next episode, so hopefully we'll have some updates before too long.

--- End quote ---
I got started at 13, I was young LOL. I found it through some fan site which eventually led me to fanfiction.net . I was more of a writer cause I already wrote a lot in my free time, just original fiction back then. (Which I have somewhere and is painfully bad I'm sure LOL). Once I discovered fanfiction I started using my ideas for the Boys, which is why a lot of my early fics were AU. They were literally just substituted in for my OCs lol.
I feel like I've changed a lot since then. I don't collaborate with everyone I talk to anymore, and I don't want to. My stories are usually NOT AU that often these days lol. I write the Boys as accurately as I can and research everything to hell when back then I didn't bother. I'm still more of a writer than a reader but I read a lot less than I used to. I've gotten pickier :P.

Oh yeah it was 2001. I remember I think I was still in high school when they banned RP fics. I was heartbroken. I took a break from fanfic and BSB until 2009 when I saw Nick in People magazine. As soon as I saw him, everything came back. It was as if I'd never stopped lol
mare:
So I was right for once, go me! lol
Sakabelle:
I got started into fanfic when I was 13 by clicking on a "stories" section of a BSB fansite. I thought it was fan encounters but it turned out to be fictional stories about the boys. I read some of them and then decided I could write my own, as I had always been something of a storyteller. (My friends and I always used to make up ridiculous stories and BSB just got inserted into them as we became fans of them) Of course it was horrid and a self-insert and it wasn't even split out by chapter. I just kept adding onto the end of the document. I emailed the girl of the first site I'd found to ask her if she would host me, and she did (even though she told me I would have to split it into chapters first for easier updating, lol)
Eventually I made my own site, then I posted on FF.net. When they removed RPF stories off of FF.net I stopped writing in that fandom and focused more on writing Gundam Wing fanfic when I was in High School. I kept up reading a few BSB stories (like Oreos) but didn't really write my own. When Unbreakable came out I decided to try writing again, found AC and the rest is history, as they say lol.
