Okay, I'm gonna insert a lot of quotes so I can reply to them, lol.
I know what you mean. I haven't seen any straight ahead, non romance suspense fics written in a long time. Hopefully Mersey will start one soon enough. She's great at it. As far as Thirteenth Step, I have been slacking this week and haven't opened any of my stories but after I update Why which I should really do first, i'll work on Thirteenth 
I really and truly can't wait for that update, like seriously!! Lol. Sounds like it's getting pretty intense, and I'm dying to find out what's gonna happen next!! (this sounds like a review now, lol.)
Mel has one that she started posting not too long ago; it's really good so far. http://accidentalchaos.net/viewstory.php?sid=8542
I actually just started reading that the other night, and just like Mare's story, I'm waiting for an update to see where that's going!
Actually I just started reading your new story. Seems lie it's going to be a nice, suspensful one. I know that doesn't help you though lol but i'm happy about it.
Why thank you.
Although I had all the chapters posted up in Vaffel before (oops, don't go to Vaffel to read the chapters!! Lol.) I'm making a slow transfer over, instead of throwing it all up at once like I did with Incomplete. And although it doesn't help me, I feel honored to get a review from you Mare! Lol. I know your probably thinking "wtf?!", but I love all your stories!! I actually wrote a little about you in my story called The Rest Is Still Unwritten, where my character gawks at how much reviews you have and how you're sucha good author.
I should try and write one... haven't done that yet... but the last thing I need is yet another story, so we'll see.
I love it when we post story after story that's incomplete, and we can't just stay focus on finishing just one story. Lol. Hey, we're authors... good ideas pop up in our minds left and right!
But if you do start on one, I would LOVE to read it!!
Actually you have a nice suspense one going now! It's non BSB but I was still going to mention it because it's great so far. I don't remember the full title though lmao Something about a Bogeyman. It's under Honey and is a Supernatural Fic.
Children Like Me by Mersey is also another great suspense fic it's a BSB/Supernatural crossover. Not sure if you are into SN but thought i'd throw those out there as well. lol
I've actually never really read a story that's supernatural/crossover. Time for me to start reading a new genre!! Lol.
Like Mare, I was just about to plug "No such thing as the Bogeyman".. I absolutely love that one.
I'd really like to try writing one as well.. but I'm definitely not good enough for that genre!
I think I'm gonna go read that right now!! And aww, what do you mean you're definitely not good enough for that genre?! I would love to see you do a suspenseful fic!!
Aww don't say that! You should try and you might surprise yourself! The toughest part of suspense I think is providing all the character backstory and motive. Especially when you're writing a murder mystery or any kind of crime story. You want a REALLY good reason why the person chose to commit whatever crime they did. Not something lame.
Well, you have a point there because it's like you think you've got it good, post the story up and your readers catch on to a little mishap in the story. Say, for instance, Howie got shot in the leg and he's prancing around in the rest of the story. Lol. It's like you always have to go back to what you wrote in the beginning so it can carry on throughout the story. And you're right about the criminals or the crimes/murders that occur. You can't just throw up some dude that commits these crimes/murders and that's the end of that. Lol. I know people still have yet to see how this Jeffery Donner character from my two stories (Incomplete and Empty Spaces) ties in with the Backstreet Boys, but it'll all come together in the end hopefully.
