I definitely have not started any trends. I've jumped on the bandwagon for some of those trends, like the kidnapping stories etc... But I never was the cause of one. I do think I write pretty unique stories though?
One thing I might take credit for is not so much a plot, but a style. I'm pretty sure that I was the first person to write in all 5 BSB's points of view for an entire story. I mean I have seen plenty of first person stories & a ton told in 2 or 3 POVs but never all five maintained throughout the entire novel. Since then, there have been a few that have popped up but I would like to think I started that. Who knows though? It's not like I've read every BSB fanfic known to man. lol
mare:
If you could only use one word to describe yourself as a fanfic writer, what would it be?
What about one word to describe other fanfic writers?

I have NO idea lol.
Probably... Crazy? Cause sometimes I have some insane ideas of what to do to those Boys.
Julie - Rainbow. Because she's basically all the colors. She can be any type of writer if she wants to be and she's proven it again and again. I guess Versatile is a better word but it's as close to DRATW as I could get lol.
Mare - Cliffies. You are the QUEEN of this Mare and part of me hates you, part of me loves you, and part of me is so jealous that you're so good at that!
I'll add more when it's not 4am lol.

I think I would describe myself as spontaneous... .cause I can be pretty damn random when I want to be when it comes to writing. I have written so many different genres and plots it's like "What do I do now?"

I'm pretty sure my 1D/BSB crossover was unique to the fandom. Unfortunately it didn't start a trend lol because I could definitely live with more stories like that!
What are some other trends ye remember from yer years of reading, and which were yer favorites?
Julie pretty much named all of the ones I remember, but back in the day my favourite was definitely the girl band one. I shamelessly used that one multiple times, with the same characters (my friends and I the members of the band, obvs) and read tons of stories centered around that plot. The more soap-operatic the better, LOL!
When a new album comes out, do ye find yerself getting inspired by the new music and developing story ideas based on the new songs or wanting to incorporate them into yer current ones?
I did this with Unbreakable, and that's actually how I ended up getting back into fanfic and finding AC. I usually end up coming up with at least some ideas for one-shots based around new songs. I'm seriously hoping that will happen again when the album comes out on Tuesday.
