Happy to report that my quest to be inspired to work on Take Me Home has been successful and I got a chapter finished for it. I was so happy. I had been watching some movies to inspire myself and I reread what I had posted to get back into it. I hadn't updated it since 2019. I'm feeling hopeful I'll be able to finish this one too!
Julie, I'm still not sure if I'll post the Brian spin off because I think the idea needs some more work. So no pressure to read the rest of the series, not to mention it's not my best work LOL it's very cheesy. There's also some plot inconsistency as well but as a whole that series was fun to write.

Yay Tracy! That's an awesome feeling to get back into a story and finish a chapter after so long. I hope there will be many more where this one came from once History is finished!
LOL We've all got those cheesy old stories. Was Nick and Amanda one of your first ones?
Question I thought of for everyone: If you were going to write a sequel, prequel, or spin-off to one of your older stories, which one would it be?
FrickingKaos:
Incomplete was the first story I ever posted but Nick and Amanda is technically the first story I ever wrote, because it started as a thing my former best friend and I did back in high school. So I've been writing it a lot longer than the 10 years it took me to finish online. It started as only one story, called By My Side. Then I changed the name to You Give Love A Bad Name. I then decided I wanted to tell the story of how Nick and Amanda met so I wrote At The Beginning and Not The Other Guy. Still the One and From This Moment On came later so it just became a huge series lol. This is probably why there's some inconsistent things, that don't really change the story or anything but they still bother me and have been pointed out, like Nick knowing how to cook, or that he cleans and Amanda not knowing and her being impressed. I keep meaning to go back and fix it but I just haven't had time.

Will come back and finish catching up; just popping in to cheer everyone on. Backsync made me feel super justified in making Lance and Joey fairly decent in PBox and gave me the boost of motivation/inspiration I think I needed to finish. Two half chapters remain, about 3,000 words to go! I believe!
Much inspiration to you all this Saturday!

You can do it!!
I must admit, the BackSync thing was pretty entertaining. The BSB vs. NSYNC thing is still so engrained in me, it feels weird to find myself enjoying videos of them performing each other's songs together, but I did. My inner fourteen-year-old's head was about to explode last night LOL. But NSYNC songs are so much better with two Backstreet Boys instead of Justin and JC. If I had to pick a favorite NSYNCer, it's always been Joey, and for as much as I've made fun of Lance over the years, he really does seem like a fun guy. Chris seems okay too. I guess Home Depot didn't give him the night off to join the others this time - too bad.
I have been writing slowly, but steadily this afternoon. It's the first day I've had to myself since Tuesday, so I'm enjoying it. I feel like I've been more productive than I actually have in terms of word count, but part of that time was spent looking at pictures of Kevin's old house and trying to figure out how the rooms are laid out. I drew myself a little blueprint, and it helped. Hoping to finish Chapter 21 today.
