I was doing that last night, too!!  It was around midnight, I was completely wired (from lack of sleep, go figure!), and I'm doing the dialogue-in different voices for different charaters of course!  And then I start acting out the kiss.

I haven't had anyone die or fly in my stories yet, but I'm sure I'll be acting that out, too, if/when that happens.  I have a story (my next one I think) where the female lead has a baby, and I'm trying to decide if I know enough (without actually having been through it) to act it out and write it, or if I should skip that whole giving birth part.  I'm not sure yet if it is essential to the story...

^You could ask one of the moms on here. :) There's a few of them.

Well, most stories don't generally have characters who kill each other and fly, so you may be safe. lol

People think it would be fun to be a bird because you could fly. But they forget the negative side, which is the preening.

I hate writing pregnancy in stories.  I have only done it once, and it was when I was 15.  That story still makes me cringe, the only reason I put it up on AC is because it's the first multi-chapter story I ever finished and I'm proud... of that fact alone.  lol

Well it's funny because I had it posted back on FF.net back in the day and it was super popular... and it has a pretty sad ending, and it kind of pissed the Aaron Carter teenys off.. lol

It hasn't been read very much on AC.. I think it's better that way haha

I don't mind the pregnancy part.  Come to think of it, most of the stories I've written have pregnancy and/or kids in it.  I think that comes from my love of children.  All of my ideas seem to include children.  Maybe I'll have a child-less story in the future.

^You could ask one of the moms on here. :) There's a few of them.

I may just do that if I decide I need to.  I could make good use of the research board.

As for the flying and dying...I had an inkling of an idea where someone does some killing, but I'm not sure I could kill a Backstreet Boy (in my story of course).  I have too many things going as it is right now though, so that inkling has been pushed back (far).

Now why would you want to piss off the teenies? They're what makes our fanbase live!! ::) lol

Weird... Don't the boppers usually go for the McDonalds in Heaven-type endings? lol

Yeah research board! lol

Aw, killing a Backstreet Boy isn't so hard as long he'll consent to it... It's when he refuses to die that things get difficult. lol

I'm going through the pregnancy thing in my story and to make it sound as realistic as possible I've been doing some research. Julie recomended me a great site that has information abot everything from the moment you're even THINKING of trying to have a baby to after the birth. It's helped a lot. Also I try to listen very carefully whenever I hear anyone talking about pregnancy or being pregnant or child birth and stuff and take mental notes.

I saw that pregnancy calendar in the research section, it did look really helpful. If I ever get inspiration to have one of my characters get pregnant, I'll take a look at it!

I've actaully used the pregnancy calendar that's linked on the research board.  It is definitely helpful when doing the whole pregnancy thing.

And the Backstreet Boys killing thing...it would traumatize me! lmao  At that point I might have to move into the AU realm so he wasn't really dead...wow that's so not my area.
