The AC confessional
mare:
Here are some of my writing ones!
~ I like to name my chapters after other people's stories, my older stories and inside jokes just for fun to see if anyone notices. I do that within the actual chapters as well. lol
~ I always make sure I incorporate the name of the story into the story at some point, more than once if I can.
~ While writing "Fly Fishing" for some reason whenever I pictured Nick and Kevin I always saw them in cartoon form! lol that's a weird one.
~ I stole the name Chub Chub from the "Simpsons"
~I tend to name my original characters after people I know so this way I will remember their names! It doesn't always work though.
~ I think Leighanne is a richer, less white trash version of Jane Carter and have a very hard time writing her in any other way!
~ Even though I can't relate to AJ much in real life, I have the most fun writing him.
~ After my first few stories, I would get emails constantly asking me if I was Nick or knew him. lol That still cracks me up.
~ One of my most well received fics that appears to be well thought out was actually written by the seat of my pants improv style and I sometimes came up with the next move just based on what people were guessing. If they guessed one way, I went the other direction purposely and I will NOT say which one it was! LOL
~ Still to this day when I see a new review for a story, I get all tingly inside.
mare:
I don't think I listened to This Is Us all the way through except the first time I got it. Same with Unbreakable but at least that one, there are a bunch of songs I do like a lot.
I'm glad you learned that BSB is not all about self inserts, Steph! LOL It kind of scares me that there might be people out there that still think that!
Which leads me to yet another one:
~ Sometimes I am embarrassed by some of the stories I see posted for fear that everyone will think all BSB fanfic is just like those stories!
~ I feel the same way about some of the crazy fans! lol

I had a tough time thinking of something to say here but ... here goes!
~ I'm terrible at keeping up with things. I NEVER read books, I rarely ever read fanfic, keep up with the forum, watch TV.... anything that requires me to remember that I need to go back to it pretty much gets ignored. It's particularly bad with writing though. I can sit down and write and be totally happy with what I wrote, walk away and forget what the plot even was and basically end up with a bunch of chapters that go nowhere.
~ I sometimes wish I wasn't a BSB fan because I'm embarrassed by the way a large chunk of the fandom acts. (Not you guys, of course)
~ The only person who is not a close friend or someone I met through AC that I have told about this site and the role I play in it is Nick. That's weird.
~ I am the anti-Kevin. I dislike Kevin so much I don't even look at him in photos because I can't stand his face. I was overjoyed when he quit and I'm actually disappointed that he will be in my group pic on the cruise.
~ I've never written a self-insert.
~ The very first fanfic I wrote was actually recorded onto a Fisher Price tape recorder (you know the one) and was a "spooky" NKOTB Halloween tale that I created for my sister and her friend.
