Alrighty, here goes!
1) Tell us one thing about your story that no one else knows?I didn't intend to like this story when I first started writing it. It was meant to be a writing exercise to help get my creative juices flowing so that I could continue to write on something else. It's not my typical fare and I went into it thinking it would just be something quick and easy to write but I ended up really enjoying it!
2) How long did it take you to write this entire story?As with all of my stories, it took me way too long, but it was definitely faster than some of the projects I've worked on in the past. I started writing 30 Days in February 2012 and finished it in the fall. I had the story completed and edited before I posted it on AC.
3) Give us a summary different from the one you have posted on AC, with a few more spoilers to make people tune in.In order to put an end to a long-distance relationship spanning more than a year, a couple decides to skip living in the same state and go straight to living in the same house. (Hijinks ensue LOL)
4) What made you come up with the concept of this one?In the story Nick references reading an article about couples who go through an adjustment phase during the first couple weeks of living together - how they learn things about one another they never anticipated. I actually read that article in a magazine and thought it would make for an interesting concept.
5) Who was your favorite character in this story and why?Hmm. There's really only two main characters and a small supporting cast so I don't know if one character stands out as my favourite. If I had to pick though, I would pick Marilyn - the sister - because I was able to relate to some of the things I put her through.
6) You had to know this was coming, who was your least favorite?Obviously, the answer is the villain - Dustin. He's kind of a douchebag and not terribly likable.
7) Are all the boys in this one? If not why did you choose to exclude them?Nope, just Nick. This was actually a bit of a stretch for me in that this story isn't AU. I made Nick a Backstreet Boy, which I rarely ever do. I didn't have a purpose or reason for all of the other guys to be in it because it wasn't a band-focused story. They would have just been pointless cameos for the sake of getting them in there and that's just not my thing.
