PS- I want to see someone answer Mare's last question.  I'm not sure I have a good answer.

Well, you are a very good writer and my plan is to transform all the very good writers into suspense/action writers so I will have lots of great things to read! LOL If you were to write one of those, I would read it in a sec *whispers* not female centered!  :-*

mare:
Okay, I know the challenge really helps with this and that's why everyone should be doing it, but for those of you that aren't, here is a great way to maybe introduce us to your work and perhaps get some new readers out of the deal!

Nevermind lol I'm going to make a new thread for this so maybe everyone will check it out.

Yes, that was a thread cliffy! lmao

Aww, thanks! :)

I occasionally favorite stories that I haven't actually read - sometimes, like Julilly said, there are stories that sound interesting that I want to remember to check out sometime, and back when I was still hosting stories on my site, I would favorite the ones that were on AC so I'd know when they were updated and could post the new chapters on my site, but I wasn't necessarily reading all of them.  So that might be part of the reason there are people who have your stories favorited that you've never heard from.  But there are also just people who will favorite your stories, actually read them, enjoy them, and still never bother to let you know.  I've been surprised plenty of times to hear someone mention one of my stories, when I had no idea they had even read it.

I love your new thread!  I will try to answer it in a little bit.  I'm going to answer your last question now, which I intended to answer earlier and then forgot about after I got distracted responding to other things that other people had said LOL.

I had a lot of catching up to do on this thread! You guys were chatty today!

I also favourite stories that I intend to read at a later date... probably something that I plan on reading when it's finished, lol.

As for my most self-indulgent story, it was probably one of the first ones I wrote where my friends and I lived in a house with Brian and Nick and had a ton of soap-operatic drama. Fun to write though!

And on things I'd never do in stories, I'll agree with everyone else who said killing off Backstreet kids (well, real ones anyway, I've killed off fictional ones) and real-life drama while it's happening. However, after the ten year grace period I'll analyze it to death! lol
