Don't worry you're not lol I didn't start writing fanfic until the summer of 2000 but prior to that I had 2 poems published in a magazine, and wrote poetry almost exclusively. Until 1999 we lived in Europe and didn't have internet at home, then after moving to Canada we got internet, and it took me a while to even discover fanfic but once I did I knew I wanted to start writing it.
It really consumed my life to the point that I nearly completely stopped writing original work, but it was my english teacher that managed to find the middle ground between both, and for me that was AU. I could write to my heart's content and still use it as submissions of creative writing because it wasn't *bsb*.
I don't really want to accomplish anything with my writing, it's a hobby. The only goals I have for my fics is for them to be completed.

I wrote poetry and song lyrics long before BSB, so you're not the only one. I also used to write a lot of stories for school. My teachers were always asking me to write more, so I did.
I actually started reading fan fics during my depression just before I found out about my Bi-Polar Disorder (2002). I was out of school for six months, and I was bored and lonely. I spent a lot of time surfing the Internet, and I ended up on a fan fiction site. I didn't know what it was at the time, so I started reading, and I was immediately hooked. Ever since then, I've wanted to start writing, but I could never find the right idea. Now I seem to be full of them.

I have always dreamed of writing a children's book, though it's progressed to young adult as the years have gone on. So I wrote a lot when I was younger.
I never really knew you could write fanfic until I started hanging out with Amanda and she actually has been writing fanfic for lots of different genres for YEARS. She got me into it and the boys just happened to be something that I liked enough to come up with interesting (or at least what I think are interesting) story lines.

Oddly enough, even though I loved writing stories for Young Authors at school every year, I never did really write for fun on my own until fanfic came along. And I still don't write original fiction just for the hell of it, so maybe there's something to those Backstreet Boys LOL. One day I know I would like to crossover to original fiction, but only when I get bored, uninspired, or just plain out of ideas for Bsb.
