Here is a short survey to fill out when you tell us which story you wrote!


Which story did you write?

How did your twist on Beauty and the Beast fit your fanfic writing niche?

Before seeing everyone else's guesses, did you think most people would be able to match your story to you?

After seeing everyone else's guesses, were you surprised at the guesses for you or your story?

Which story did you write?
I wrote two, actually - "Shorty and the Deceased" and "Beauty and the Backstreet Boy."


How did your twist on Beauty and the Beast fit your fanfic writing niche?
"Shorty and the Deceased" is a comedic parody, similar to the stuff I write in 00Carter, and involves both choppage and zombies, which are two of my favorite things to write about!  I was actually going to go the cancer story route with my original idea, but it got very disturbing very fast, so I tried to think of another idea, and this was the result.

"Beauty and the Backstreet Boy" was an idea that came later, when I thought about how Brian as the Wolfman in the Everybody video would make a great Beast.  All of the other challenge entries up to that point had been about Nick, so I really just wanted to get a Brian one out there.  This one fits my niche mostly because it's a Brian story, but it also has some humor and some romantic stuff, which I like on occasion.


Before seeing everyone else's guesses, did you think most people would be able to match your story to you?
I figured everyone would match "Shorty and the Deceased" to me - and if not to me, then to Rose because of the zombies.  That's why I liked the idea of writing a second one that would be less obvious.  I didn't know if people would associate "Beauty and the Backstreet Boy" with me purely based on my writing style and the fact that I'm a Brian girl.


After seeing everyone else's guesses, were you surprised at the guesses for you or your story?
I was a little surprised by some of them, but not most of them.  It was fun to see all the different guesses for "Beauty and the Backstreet Boy," but I was impressed that a few of you did match that one to me!

Which story did you write?
I was that other sneaky person who wrote two stories :) Mine were Unintended and Beauty & The Extra Terrestrial Beast.

How did your twist on Beauty and the Beast fit your fanfic writing niche?
I'm not really sure I have a writing niche lol.  Unintended came from my love of historical romance type stuff and Beauty & The Extra Terrestrial Beast from my love of sci-fi.  I did plan on making someone else the main character in the sci-fi one, but Nick kind of took over.

Before seeing everyone else's guesses, did you think most people would be able to match your story to you?
I knew some would guess mine due to my English spelling (although I did try to disguise it).

After seeing everyone else's guesses, were you surprised at the guesses for you or your story?
Yes, I was a little surprised with some of the guesses.  A few seem to mix Lore and I up, which is probably due to our love of sci-fi lol.

^Actually, halfway through reading your story I was not 100% sure if you were the author until the word 'whilst' kind of sealed the deal. :)

I wrote Nick and Belle.

I don't think I have a writing niche. I just thought of a plot that would suit this challenge. I guess the romance writer in me wrote this one. :)

Before seeing everyone else's guesses, did you think most people would be able to match your story to you?
Yes. Because of how the story was written, the grammar, sentence construction etc.

After seeing everyone else's guesses, were you surprised at the guesses for you or your story?

Not at all. I was happy that almost everyone matched the story to me. I'd like to think you all are familiar with my writing. lol

I wrote "The Beast's beauty".

I guess it fit with my love for Brian and for angst/drama.

Before seeing everyone else's guesses, did you think most people would be able to match your story to you?
Yes, I think mine would be very easy to guess since it wasn't a Nick one and for my probably mistakes,

After seeing everyone else's guesses, were you surprised at the guesses for you or your story?
Not at all since almost everyone guessed mine.

Steph, your Beauty and the Extra-Terrestrial Beast one was the one that threw me off!  I thought it was Lore at first, just based on the title, but when I read it, I also noticed the "whilst" and thought it had to be someone outside the U.S.  I thought you at first, and I should have gone with it, but I was pretty sure you had written Unintended and wasn't sure you'd done two of them, so I guessed Ritz because I wasn't sure about the other one I had guessed for her.  I should have gone with my gut!  Good job!

In the US, we use "while" instead of "whilst."
