New questions to ponder
mare:
That's why I mainly wrote old school BSB. Takes the wives etc...out of the equation. Since they've gotten older, I haven't been able to channel them anymore.
Rose:
Yeah I'd either find a way to write the wives out if I need to or put it in the past. With Miles To Go, I made sure she wasn't on the bus LOL. In one of my To Be Written ideas, they'll have divorced. Not for any romantic reason, but to shove him in a dark place I'll need him in. That and I don't wanna write Lauren LOL.

--- Quote from: Sakabelle on May 22, 2017, 02:37:52 PM ---My favourite BSB era is probably Never Gone. I was huge into them at that point, maybe more than I was when I was a teenager in the crazy days of BSB. I also got to see them in concert during that era, and I hadn't since 1998 when I was 11 and we were in the nosebleeds. For Never Gone we were in the 5th row, I'd gone through this phase of really enjoying live music and seeing a lot of indie shows, so getting to see BSB was amazing that year for me. I guess a close second would have to be the Backstreet's Back portion of their crazy days. That was when I first became a fan, my friends were all fans and we were just learning everything we could about them. That was really fun too.
My favourite era for each of the boys is tough. But I'd probably have to say it's right now for all of them, with the exception of Brian. For the other four, they all look so happy and like the best versions of themselves. Especially Nick... I was watching some old (1997/1998) footage of BSB a couple weeks ago and I was just cringing at Nick. I don't understand what my 13 year old self saw in him...? He really does sound and look a lot better now. For Brian... I still like him, that'll never change, but some of the things he's done/said recently have me going "...Really?" I feel like maybe it was better when I knew a bit less about him. Regardless, I'm going to go with Unbreakable Brian as my favourite era for him. Because he was more accessible but he wasn't as in your face about some of his opinions as he is now. Or at least, I wasn't aware of them.

My favorite era is probably Millennium in terms of the group. It was a fun time. They seemed perfect then and everything was at it's peak. They were COMPLETELY unaccessible to me but I didn't care. That and now, because everything seems to be going their way again. The Boys are happy, there's a lot of stuff happening and as an adult I can do a LOT more than I could then LOL.
In terms of the Boys, I really love Millennium Brian, Unbreakable Howie cause that's when I started appreciating him, and current Nick, AJ, and Kevin.
Nick is so at peace, he sounds happier, he seems happier, and it's kind of awesome. Brian...man I wish he hadn't become so open. There's so many things I wish I didn't see or didn't know. Things I basically force myself to ignore these days LOL. Kevin I've always loved so I have no set preference but he's so appreciative right now. AJ is happy and settled and man, Howie's fun lol. Like I never noticed it back then but I do now.
RokofAges75:
Does anyone actually enjoy writing about the guys' real wives/children/family members?
I usually don't and try to find ways to either write them out or avoid having to write them in, but I have to say, I've actually kind of enjoyed writing Lauren and Leigh in my current story. I don't think I would necessarily enjoy writing them as main characters, but as supporting characters, they've been okay.
