lmao whoa! And how can I forget the Brian heart problems story? I did the long lost sibling fic as well. I mean it was an AU, but still.
I have never written about an evil twin though!

LOL, that's right, I have TWO long lost sibling fics! One was an AU, and one is the evil twin fic. ;)

When I do flashbacks I just use the same thing I use for a scene changer: ~*~
It seems to do the trick... Though I don't know if they're really flashbacks, so much as memories....
And the best friends sleeping in the same bed together... No one does that! Every time I stayed at my best friend's dorm, I slept on the floor.

omg this thread is killing me! You guys are friggin hilarious!!! You don't want me to list all the cliche's I'm guilty of. I might shut down the server-lol Let's just say that my very first story that I wrote when I was like 14/15 has pretty much every cliche you guys have mentioned in it. Except it's not like "Five Backstreet Boys In Search Of A Plot" Mine wasn't meant to be funny... oye. If I ever write another story like that, shoot me please!!!

You know, I don't think I've ever done a flashback. A couple of dream sequences, but no flashbacks. Weird.

Most of the cliches I listed were from the stories I wrote the first year I started writing (I averaged at least one or two a month LOL), but not all of them. I did have one I wrote that year (not my first story, but still when I was 15) that was soooooo teenybopperish . It had the girl band, a love triangle, at least one car crash, cancer, eating disorder (not a Bsb though), SIDS, quite a few deaths, and... maybe more but that's all I can think of right now. In any case, it was like my parody story Not Another Teenybopper Fanfic, only for real. :P It was fun to write though, cause it was like a soap opera LOL.
