Welcome to my sanctuary!

I’m Julie, and BSB fanfiction is one of my favorite ways to escape from the real world for a while. I became a Backstreet Boys fan in 1998 and first discovered fanfic around the turn of the Millennium. I’ve been reading, writing, and dreaming up stories ever since. I write a variety of genres, but I’m best known for my medical dramas. On this site, you will find my stories, along with links to some of my all-time favorites by other authors. If you read something you like, please leave a comment and let me know. Enjoy your escape!

TWWBW Update!

Wishing a happy belated birthday to my favorite Backstreet Boy, Brian!  I’m back with an update that, sadly, does not include him.  Chapter 83 of The World Will Be Waiting is up!  Thank you to everyone who commented on the last chapter, whether here or on AO3.   I love reading your thoughts and reactions!

TWWBW Update + Contest Reminder

Hey, would you look at that?  I’ve updated three weeks in a row!  Today I’m posting Chapter 81 of The World Will Be Waiting, which is the last in the trio of Vegas chapters.  I’m not done with the next chapter yet, so I doubt this little streak will continue next weekend.  But my writing streak is approaching four straight years of daily writing sessions, so hopefully it won’t take too much longer for me to finish it.

As a reminder, I’m giving away a complete set of Nick’s Love Life Tragedy singles on vinyl, a $150 value!  See my previous post for more details, and click here to enter the contest.  Entry forms are due next Saturday, January 24, which gives you one more week to enter.  I will announce the winner on Nick’s birthday!

TWWBW Update!

First off, a belated happy birthday to AJ!  I’ve been listening to his long-anticipated solo album, My Name is Alexander James, and it’s really good!  Proud of you, AJ!

Secondly, I’m back with another story update: Chapter 80 of The World Will Be Waiting is up!  Writing this chapter was an exercise in restraint that showed how much I’ve grown as a writer since my BMS days.  I went into it with one idea of what I thought was going to happen and then switched gears halfway through and took it in a different direction – or, rather, I let my characters drive the story and went along for the ride, rather than forcing them to behave in ways that went against everything I’ve created them to be.  I will probably explain this in more detail at some point, but for now, I’ll just say that I’m proud of myself for how I handled this chapter.  I hope you enjoy it!

Now that we’re eighty chapters in, I can say without a doubt that this story’s going to have over a hundred chapters by the time it’s done.  I really never thought I would write another super-long novel like this, but here we are. 🤷🏻‍♀️  I should know better by now – whenever I say I’ll “never” do something, I will inevitably do that thing at some point down the road.  Thanks for coming along for the ride with me!
