The AC confessional
mare:
I posed this as a question in the question thread but also thought it would prove to be a fun stand on its own topic as well.
So, here is where you can post your deepest, darkest secrets about anything relating to AC. Fanfic writing, reading, any fandom, genre etc...
Come in whenever you think of one and share!
;D

Here are some of mine:
~ I put a lot more importance on reviews then I say but not mine, other peoples! Before I decide to read something I'm on the fence about I almost always check out the reviews to see what they say. If all I see is 'good job!' or 'update!' by names I am otherwise not familiar with, I tend to skip the story. If the author hasn't responded to reviews, I'll skip the story no matter how highly recommended it comes. If I see a lot of familiar names reviewing a story with longer more detailed reviews, it tells me that maybe I might like it too since those people have the same taste I do and had formed opinions about what they were reading enough to leave a detailed review.
~ When a chapter is really long, I tend to lose interest sometimes, so I usually skim and look for dialogue to help me get through. Reading that, lets me know the important things that have happened. lol
~ No matter who you use on your banners, I picture your characters the way I see them and it's never as the actor or actresses you pick lol
~ If I don't like how a story is moving along, I create my own version in my head.
~ If I can't visualize the story I'm reading by the third chapter, I stop reading. I have to see it play in my head as a movie for me to stay interested.
~ I lost respect for Backstreet when they teamed up with New Kids to the point where I was ready to hand back my 'fan' card. Thank God for Kevin's return. He changed all that but I'm afraid of it happening again!

I'll bite LOL.
I never read AJ, Howie, or Brian centered stories. I made an exception recently for Mare because To Protect Serve sounded interesting, although Kevin is the main character. I am slowly coming out of the box when it comes to the boys...but for the longest time, I only read Nick or group fics.
At first I was hesitant about Kevin coming back to BSB, but after seeing them interacting with each other in interviews and stuff, I accepted him lol
I went almost two years before deciding Nick was my favorite boy. I didn't get attracted to him until the All I Have To Give video.
I was scared to death posting my first fic.on AC....Incomple te. My first review came from a friend of mine in Australia, who was inspired to write her own stories.
My Nick and Amanda series was originally a BSB/NSYNC crossover. Amanda's name wa originally Alexis, her and Nick were not supposed to end up together. There were a lot of extra characters that ended up being taken out and many other changes, to make the guys more like themselves, and Kevin was added to the mix as a wedding planner.
Figured You Out was originally written over ten years ago.....when I decided to post it at AC, I made the girl a fan, made the story a bit darker.
In fact, my father was the one who came up with the ending, making it so that there could not be a sequel. The McDonald's bribe was an idea from a co worker....ever yone was supportive.

I really never read anything but Nick or group centered fics either, unless it's for judging or challenge purposes.
If it makes you feel better Tracy, Protect and Serve is really a group fic, you'll see as you go along, it's pretty even with the featuring. :) lol

Another confession
The only way I was able to make it through Mind Games was switching Brian and Nick's characters. LOL
