Question of the day part 8
Purpura Lipstick:
I might get inspired to write when they release new music as it's exciting and helps get my creativity going. Or when I see them live that really helps spur my creativeness but events in their lives otherwise don't typically inspire me. I will think of plot lines and think "how can I work the guys into this".
Carter-Orange:
I don't get inspired by things in their personal lives, I don't really give their personal lives a thought because when I write about them, I don't usually include their real other halves.
I suppose hearing new music and interviews can be quite inspiring, sometimes it doesn't even have to be BSB stuff. If I think of an idea, then I'll work them into it.

I saw this article today on CNN about what is believed to be Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook creator)'s first website, an Angelfire page from 1999 when he was 15. You can read the article here: http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/04/tech/social-media/zuckerberg-first-website/index.html?hpt=hp_bn5 I laughed at how much they overanalyzed this old-school site, but since I started my site in 2000 when I was also 15, it got me thinking.
If you ever became a successful, famous published author, what, if anything, would you be most embarrassed about people finding related to your fan fiction past?
Do you have anything online, like an old website or early stories, that embarrass you now?
Carter-Orange:
I'd be embarrassed if anyone found out about the very first story I wrote. It was so cringeworthy, and like something a child would write. I really don't know what I was thinking, but obviously I wasn't thinking at all! So glad that story vanished along with the site it was on, lol.
Yes, I do have a story that kind of embarrasses me now. It's posted on AC too. I do have a website I created following Julie's 'how to create a website using Word' instructions, but I disabled it a while ago because I want to change it around but can't really be bothered right now (it was just somewhere to shove my stories in case anything happened to my laptop or AC).
RokofAges75:
Aww, I didn't know you followed my tutorial! LOL That seems so outdated and amatuerish now, but I was still using Word for my site up until I switched to Wordpress in January. Wordpress definitely looks more professional, and Word has plenty of flaws, but it was more user-friendly in some ways, seeing as how I write all my stories on Word.
