Question of the day part 9 (even though days go by lol)
usako:
Most of my stories are inspired by songs. I listen to one and then, suddenly, an image starts to create in my mind and I go in full plotting mode. "Love Story" was born in that way: I was listening to "Love Story"by Mariah Carey and thought that it could be a great plot. Then, chatting with my best friend, it became something totally different and bigger.
Since I write about Brian and Nick, some stories (especially one - short) are inspired by the guys interaction or videos.
"Crash&Burn" is something different because it's partially personal, since I was the one having a bad day and decided to write something just to let it all out.
FrickingKaos:
When I Grow Up was totally inspired by 13 going on 30. I thought it would be funny if Nick woke up as his 30 year old self since he has changed so much growing up.
Jizzle Of Oz started as a joke on twitter. Thinking back...I went through a movie homage phase that year cause I wrote Forces Of Nature which was based on Twister. I kind of made Nick's character like Dusty. Hopefully one day I will finish it.
Weird World was inspired by the Weird Al song "I Think I'm A Clone Now". That idea started as a joke whwre people on twitter wanted to clone Nick lol. I still think it's a bad idea.
emilo:
Do your friends/ family know that you write BSB fan fiction? If so what do they think? Are they supportive? Or not? Do you divulge much information about your stories and this fanfic life?
mare:
The only one of my real life people who know about my fanfic writing is my sister. It took me a LONG time before I let her know. She's been supportive. She hasn't really read any of the fanfic stuff except for Mel's sequel. I would never tell anyone else, EVER!
For the longest time, no one even knew I enjoyed writing. Once Mel's was published I got a lot of where the heck did that come from questions lol Pretty much only my closest friends only know how much I truly love BSB in general.
I like to keep my two worlds separated as much as possible.
The whole Mare versus Marianne type thing lol
RokofAges75:
I'm the same way as Mare. My parents and sister know that I write fanfic, but they have been sworn to secrecy and told never to read it. My dad and sister couldn't care less. My mom is supportive of me writing, but on the rare occasion that it comes up in conversation, she always asks, "When are you going to write a real novel? You know, not about the Backstreet Boys?" They don't get the whole "fan fiction" thing, which is fine with me because I don't want them reading it LOL.
No one else knows I even write, let alone what I write. That is why I write under a penname, to keep that a secret from people I know in real life. Like Mare, I like to keep the real world and the "BSB world" separate.
