I'm beyond excited for this LOL.

Is anybody doing anything concerning fanfic this summer?

I'm attempting to get back into writing. Work got crazy, the move just before summer, and other stuff kinda held me up. I'm finally at a calmer point.

You disappear WAY longer than I do Reb! Lol

Haha, and I think I've discovered why that is. Unfortunately, but kinda fortunately, this fandom is... my escape. I noticed I had came back around this time last year, which was summer/ending of summer, going back into the swing of things when it came to my school job and whatnot. It's the summertime that I tend to feel the... loneliest, as weird as that may sound, lol. Although I still work one of my two jobs during the summer, it does leave me with some time to spare, and some of my other friends or family may be busy to not be able do anything. So I find myself locked up in my room, my mind going wild and thinking... eh, why not write, why not read, why not TRY to find something productive to do by yourself, lol.

But like I said last year, throughout the year, I'll come on to the discussion boards of AC or TDS and read what's been going on, how everyone's been doing and whatnot; I just sometimes don't "come back" because it's around a time where I'm working the two jobs and allow myself to get wrapped up in all that, when I'm surrounded by people daily and the only time I have is to come home and sleep. The people I've met through this fandom will always be people I will check up on... the fandom itself is an escape for me when I feel like I have nothing or no one. Did I make any sense with this?   I kinda just figured it out, hahahaha.

I'm even listening to the boys' music, all albums and blasting them on Spotify to help me cope, lol. Watching videos of them on tour and the cruise; although I can't physically escape like that, it helps my mind to escape as if I'm there, lmao. I'm a weird individual, I know.  

But it seems like it's been quite here on this home front...

No it makes sense. It's also been quiet in fanfic land so the return of a few vets is really refreshing.

Yeah... I was going through the posts of last year when I came back, and it's so different because last year was the resurgence of fanfiction and writers, old and new, coming back. This year, quiet. I guess cause BSB's whirlwind of a year has came to an end, so the dust is finally settling, so to speak. Of course it'll all pick up once more when they head back into the studio I'm sure, lol.

My question tho... HOW HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN?!?!?!?!

[FrickingKaos]

I've been trying to get into writing again. I lost confidence for a while and I'm slowly getting it back. I wrote a bit yesterday but I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it or if anyone will read. Been toying with a Nick and Brian story for a while now. For a hot minute it was going to be this epic Sci fi thing but I don't think I can pull it off lol
Now it's probably going to be about their friendship over the years or something.

Yay, new questions!  It has been way too dead around here this summer!  I have been MIA like many of you too.  I haven't written much of anything fanfic-wise since the beginning of the year because my master's classes have been pretty intense, and I didn't have a student teacher this year like I have in years past to ease some of my planning and grading load, so my nights and weekends and the whole month of June were spent doing schoolwork or trying to relax in between doing schoolwork.  I just haven't had the time or mental energy to write anything other than the required papers.  Now that I'm done with that for the summer, I'm trying to get back into the swing of things for at least a few weeks before I have to start school all over again... ugh!  The good news is that I only have one more year to go before I'm done with grad school, and then I should have less stress and more time to get back into fanfic.

In the meantime, my main goal this summer is to finish my part of Song for the Undead and see what I can do on Sick as My Secrets.  For anyone still waiting for updates on that or my other stories, you should probably just consider me "on hiatus" until I'm done with my master's, but please know that I fully plan on coming back when all that's over with.  I still love the Boys, love writing, and have a lot of story ideas; I just know I don't have the time I need to devote to them right now.  But even when I'm not writing, I still enjoy talking about fanfic on here, so keep the questions and answers coming!

As far as Nick's zombie movie goes... OMG, so excited!!!  This project is turning out to be one epic hot mess, and I can't wait to see the result!  I hope it's the next Sharknado!

Welcome back, Reb!
