FS for June: What Lurks Around the Corner by Mare
« on: June 01, 2012, 01:54:06 PM »
Okay this is going to be a very awkward month if I have to do this myself  :'( lol

Because several of you requested I have another month, I decided to go ahead and give myself another one lol I had a really hard time deciding which story to pick. I was going to go with an old one but I know how this thing works and figured it was best to do one that most of you have read and might want to discuss. I went with What Lurks Around the Corner.

This is the time I would assign you chapters to read but lets be honest, I don't think anyone who hasn't read it will actually read it, so instead i'm just going to say if you want me to answer any questions etc... post them in here and i'll be more than happy to answer them for you.

If anyone wants to play host that would also be great because honestly? lol This is weird.

Happy reading! lmao erm...  :-*

Here's the link in case anyone wants to check it out.

2) How long did it take you to write this entire story?

3) Give us a summary different from the one you have posted on AC, with a few more spoilers to make people tune in.

4) What made you come up with the concept of this one? 

5) Who was your favorite character in this story and why?

6) You had to know this was coming, who was your least favorite?

7) Are all the boys in this one? If not why did you choose to exclude them?

Bonus Question - what was your favorite scene to write in this story?

1) Tell us one thing about your story that no one else knows?

I really kept changing my mind about things throughout the entire story and that was a first for me. Originally Bob was going to be the bad guy and I had never planned on writing a brother lol He kind of wrote himeself and I was all..what? Okie dokie then. I had also planned on killing him for good and killing Kevin, but I couldn't do it. I also made the decision to stop writing while I was writing this one.

2) How long did it take you to write this entire story?

Not sure, probably about 9 months or so. Usually I start in the summer and finish around Christmas lol

3) Give us a summary different from the one you have posted on AC, with a few more spoilers to make people tune in.

Breeana McShane was the most popular girl in her high school and wanted to have smutty sex all day and all night long with Nick Carter and Donnie Walhberg. See what happens when they all meet up for one hot night in a janitor's closet. Will AJ get her pregnant with a baboon baby? He wanted to be part of the story, he felt left out!

That'll get some people to read this who haven't yet!

4) What made you come up with the concept of this one? 

I just thought how crazy it would be to wake up one day and find out your entire life was one huge lie and all these weird random dreams you had since childhood turned out to be real!

5) Who was your favorite character in this story and why?

I loved writing Max. He was nice and sarcastic and we never really knew if he was a good guy or a bad guy. I tried to think Snape as I wrote him. What would Snape Do? lol

6) You had to know this was coming, who was your least favorite?

Jane and Bob. I'm not a fan and try to leave them out of things as much as possible but sometimes you just gotta do it.

7) Are all the boys in this one? If not why did you choose to exclude them?

Of course!

Bonus Question - what was your favorite scene to write in this story?

You guys are probably going to laugh a lot at my replies to some questions because of my horrible HORRIBLE memory! I couldn't even remember the name of this story, remember? lmao Saying all that i'm not sure I have a favorite scene. I think the one visual I had in my head the entire time was of Nick hiding under his bed witnessing his mother's murder. I kind of based my entire story around that scene.

Wow, if anyone hasn't read this i'm just giving all kinds of things away! lmao

LMFAO at your summary!!!

I love this story, Mare!  You are great at so many genres, but your suspense stories like this one and It Stays will always be my favorites.  You know how to keep people guessing and how to leave them hanging!

Mare you already know how I felt about this story lol. I basically spammed you with reviews. It is definitely one of my favorites by you. I especially like the part where Nick kept wondering the stuffed pig's name, where did that idea come from?

Thanks, Tracy! I always looked forward to your reviews! Seriously it's one of the things I miss about not writing anymore lol

The pig idea came from a chat with Rose, Julie and a few others and I was trying to come up with a name for this story. I was having the hardest time coming up with a name and I just said something like. I should name it something random like The Blueberry pig! Of course when I started writing this, I found the perfect opportunity to add it in there so I did. So, yeah it was an inside joke that actually ended up being an important plot point. Who knew? lmao

Awww *blushes* well I always looked forward to new chapters, even if I waited a long time for them. There was so much about this story that I liked, the idea was just really clever. I also remember the part about Nick hiding in bathrooms all the time, I noticed you've used that in other stories. Is that a trait you see the real Nick having or just something you came up with?

Actually it's something I do lol

Whenever I tried to get away from bad things happening in my house, I often ran into the bathroom and locked the door.

Oddly enough I do that at work. If I am upset I go in there until I calm down. Something about a bathroom is calming lol
