Fic Talk > General Discussion
New questions to ponder
FrickingKaos:
I don't plan on giving up just yet. But I'm in a bit of a rut at the moment. Last cosplay I did was in October, I dressed as Maleficent for Halloween and it was very successful. I have no idea who I want to be next.
I am excited for a few things next year. Cruise, and seeing Nick in March. Plus a friend and I are talking about possibly going to LA in September. I just need to look at how much money situation is after Europe. The cruise scares me to death because I've never been out of the country before. Luckily I won't be traveling by myself, my friend from Chicago is my travel buddy. Strength in numbers is the plan I'm going for this time.

Erika, I can't believe it's already been a year since you had your baby! I'm glad you got to take a whole year off with her! It must have been hard going back to work after that. Just FYI, Nick's physical CD is not supposed to ship until mid-December if you ordered it off his site.
I'm super excited for BSB 2016 too! I had no idea they were going back into the studio so soon until they started posting that they were recording! I guess it's not really that soon, since it's already been 2+ years since IAWLT, but they've been doing so much that it doesn't seem like we've had to wait that long.

:blushes: Clearly, I missed the bit about the actual CD not shipping out until sometime this month. Ooooops! I spend all day telling people to read critically ... it seems as though I need to follow my own advice!! LOL
I also can't believe that my little lady is 13 months old already! My year at home was over before I knew it! It's definitely been hard to make the transition back to work, but I am enjoying the fact that I get to exist and be known as someone other then "mommy" for at least eight hours a day. :)
While I am excited to see what this new album will bring, I am also slightly worried about Brian. His voice is what drew me to the group in the first place and the fact that he is singing less makes me a touch sad. Don't get me wrong, I truly like IAWLT and the overall sound of the album was great buuuuuut I just can't appreciate that Howie is singing more. I know that sounds horrible, but I'm a Brian girl and I miss him!! HAHA
RokofAges75:
I know what you mean about Brian. :( I do think his voice is getting better... not that I've heard him sing live that much recently, but the last few times I have, he has sounded better... still a little shaky at times, but much better than the NKOTBSB days.
RokofAges75:
I would love to get another discussion going, so here's a new question: How have you changed as a writer since you first got into fanfic? Feel free to answer as a reader too if you'd like.
mare:
I'll answer, even though it's been awhile. Lol
I definitely changed as a writer from when I started to when I stopped. Fanfic helped my writing by leaps and bounds. I felt like my writing was elevated the last two real stories I wrote as compared to the way I wrote when I first started. I didn't change my tastes. I never roamed too far away from my comfort zones of suspense, drama and Nick centered stories, but I did at least try just about every genre once.
As a reader, I tended to get very picky. I mean, I was picky before but once I figured out what I liked, I never really strayed too far away. I used to feel guilty about not giving other genres or boy centered stories a chance, but I got over it lol
