Taking time to agonize over the questions and answer them thoughtfully takes you out of the forum if it's fast chatting. This is likely how everyone felt when we all used to have pages of random conversations within minutes of each other posting.

LOL true!  I should have saved the Curtain Call post for tomorrow morning when no one is on... but then it would have distracted me from actually writing fanfic, so I'm glad I got it out of my system tonight.

I try to justify it by saying that I'm still writing the rest of the larger story so "it's for inspiration," but I also worry that it sounds self-absorbed. It's definitely the fanfic I've read most in recent years. I just like the characters a lot. (Though I admittedly summarize the NSYNC focused chapters for myself in about 1/3 of the rereads I've ever done on it.)

That's a good question.  I don't know.  The readers seemed to enjoy Cary as a character, but I'm not sure whose POV chapters they enjoyed reading more.  Both were pretty Nick-centered throughout the story, as most of her storyline revolved around him, so it would really just depend on if they preferred reading from his perspective or hers.  Anyone who has read Curtain Call, feel free to weigh in if you remember having a preference.

Especially after you spent so many years with emo Broken Nick, the first person POV was probably exactly the break you needed!

Would you say that all of your Nicks are really different from each other or mostly those two in particular?

And yes, if you've read it, weigh in! Inquiring minds want to know!

Definitely get it out of your system! I saw your questions way earlier in the day (like pre-coffee early), but made the conscious decision to wait to respond until after I finished ch. 28 for that exact same reason.

I should go to bed at some point though, haha. ETA: Laptop is dying, so this is my sign, haha. Night!

I loved Curtain Call so I was really happy to see some fun stuff about that story Julie  :)

I'm also laughing that Dee caught my tag line of writing fanfic by moonlight because that is definitely a sailor moon thing. I'm a massive fan of that anime. During my cosplay days I used to dress as Super Sailor Moon. I also had the schoolgirl uniform too and a princess Serenity costume.
