--- Quote from: marina on December 30, 2007, 09:42:25 PM ---Can you believe that I accepted to have the story featured without going back to edit it once again? I don't know if that's a good thing or not :P You know me mare, and you know that a couple of years ago I would have been freaking out at the idea of people discussing a story that has so many mistakes, right? I was thinking about it the other day when I was checking some chapters because I didn't remember some things and I was cringing with embarrasment at the mistakes thinking 'people are reading this?' lol I guess my priorities have changed. After all, I can always correct those when I go back to finish it. The important thing is that mistakes or not, it was fun :)

but again, you can't beat yourself up over those. English is a secondary language for you. Mad props for doing as well as you do. Plus, this has to be great practice for you so I would imagine all of your stories get better as you go.  I say its worth it and I'm really glad you shared with us despite your lack of perfection. haha if people only wanted perfect stories, you could cross every single one I've ever written off the list!

Hi Maria,

I apologise for this late entry and congratulation s for getting YBS be the featured fic of Dec!! i wish this fic is completed, we need to know what your plans are for Kevin, lmao. (you're going to kill him arent you? argh!)...i love your portrayal of the boys in this fic. I used to read a lot of sci fi bsb fics back when i first started reading bsb fics. good written ones are always a great escape from the reality and the norm (and it's still the boys, so yay!) i do notice though that whenever authors write AUs, Howie always turned out to be a close family friend while the other four are brothers...i wonder why that is because im guilty for this too and i cant explain it myself, lol.

anyhoo...congr atulations once again!! *hugs*

mare:
LOL good point about Howie being the close family friend. I never thought about that.

Hope you had a great time Maria!

Happy New Year and love ya lots!

*hugs*

marina:
Is it okay for me to still post in here? Hope I'm not going against some board rule or something. I just wanted to reply to mersey (*hugs mersey*). I don't know about other stories but I didn't want to go with all the boys being brothers for some reason. I thought 3 were enough and Kevin and Nick had to be brothers (because I said so lol) and then you have the 'family resemblance' between Kevin and Brian and then both Nick and Brian have blond hair and blue eyes so I just went with those three :)

Mare, love ya lots too :D
