I'm over the initial OMG reaction to my sesa assignment. I think it was mostly due to having pairings that I'd never even thought about writing, a word that needs to be included that I didn't even know the meaning of, a writing style that I tend not to write and a total lack of any of the men that I wanted.
Man, reading that list I could freak again, but no, I've actually got some ideas now, I'm feeling pretty confident. I've been looking at the mentor situation but I'd need a bsb one and those seem thin on the ground.
I like the idea of a mentor but I could cope without one. I know I can write, what I need is someone to point out my lousy grammar and the mistakes I make when the story is done. That way I can become a better writer.
No, I've decided I'm going to have fun with this. Yes, the pairings aren't what I'd have picked and the words could be better but what the hell. I'm going to enjoy writing this story!
Imagine me punching at the air now, chanting 'I can do this!' *g*

OK, not gonna say anymore, just in case my recipient sees this, but I think I'm gonna have to go with the *Nsync pairing, which is NOT JC & would _NOT_ be my first (or 9th) choice...
poop. :(
Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-10 10:16 am (UTC)I wouldn't say that AJ is ugly, he's got beautiful eyes but I know it's a matter of taste. Plus, writing BSB when you know *nothing* about them mightn't be the best thing.
Not saying specifics either but I know you'll do an awesome story. Because you rock, it's that simple. Write this, then write what you want next time. Like a *long* trickc for my birthday
Not that I'm hinting or anything....
well maybe a little ;)
I have total faith in you.

Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-10 06:15 pm (UTC)Thanks, Ter, and thanks to you, too, Kifty.
I fear becoming a BSB fan (no, really! lol) but my male pride has been challenged, in words eerily similar to my sister's when I expressed a writing doubt to her: "You can put anything into words!" So now I'm probably gonna have to write it...
Oh, well. I am determined to have fun with whatever I end up writing, otherwise it's not worth it.
And no teasing, Terri, that's _another_ challenge, and when's ypur birthday? lol
Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-10 06:38 pm (UTC)Have a good time writing whatever you choose to write, and I look forward to reading it in late December!
Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-11 03:55 am (UTC)LOL, I may have to burn you some BSB CDs and put it into your parcel, help you along that fan route ;)
I really do think you'll do a good job which ever option you decide on, your sister's words are so true. I know you'll have fun too, have can you not chatting and writing about sdbs? *g*
I was only teasing about the trickC, I know how busy you are. But my birthday is in Feb just for the record, but I really don't expect a story.
Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-11 03:48 am (UTC)I think AJ can be deceptive. Sometimes he looks so ordinary, then at others he blows you away. I really think they're a very good looking group. When they're not looking like goobers *g*
Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-11 07:24 am (UTC)Is this the same Lucy you said loves Letterboys, Terri? 'Cause I'll check it out if somebody can point me at it, otherwise I'm afraid I'm gonna have to go with the *Nsync pairing. Which isn't a bad thing, IMHO, I just selfishly wanted to write my fav boybander, Mr. Chasez. And I'm BSB clueless, and don't think I like AJ, but ah well... ..we'll see.
On a better note, Coco gave me some ideas for the Thanksgiving MX fic... *grin*
Re: Argh!
Date: 2003-11-11 09:33 am (UTC)This is definitely the Lucy who loves Letterboys. I hope my links work this time!

Date: 2003-11-11 08:54 pm (UTC)Look at all the sparkly!
Thanks tons, this is gonna help no matter WHAT I end up doing... ..to make no mention of the giggling & ogling I did for HOURS, literally!
Thanks again!! ^-^

It is rather delicious!
I'm glad it's helping, even if it's just to make you drool *g*
