Just wanted to come in and introduce myself. I just joined today, my name is Shari and I'm from Texas.
I've been a BSB fan since 2000, started writing fan fic in 2001, although just for my friends to read. I've never posted any of my stories online for anyone to read. Hope y'all will be gentle with the reviews! LOL I write under the Wolf Dreamer pen name, and posted a story to share today.
I started by writing visuals while in an online chat room, and my friends encouraged me to start writing longer pieces. It all began with a very vivid dream I had about Howie turning into a wolf (hence my pen name), which I felt compelled to turn into a fan fic. Since then I've written about 20 pieces, including a four part series. I am a Howie girl, that's who I usually write about, and they are mostly romance / drama. I started writing seriously when I became very ill, back in 2001, and I discovered that I could forget about being sick while I was writing. I could become someone else for a while. Over a six month period I wrote over 400 pages.
When my two girls got to be teens, I didn't have much time to write anymore - but seeing as I'm an empty nester now I have lots more free time. I have my own jewelry business, which keeps me busy, but the writing keeps me sane. I'm looking forward to reading more stories on here, and sharing more of my own.
