December 9th Updates
Told ya it’d be very soon. ;)
Chapters 195 AND 196 of “By My Side” are up. Feedback is always treasured. :)

Sorry it’s so short, but stay tuned for another update very soon. ;)
November 26th Updates
Chapter 193 of “By My Side” is up, and it’s a LONG one! 15 pages!
Took me a little while to write, but hopefully it’s worth the wait! ;)
Happy 5th
Birthday, Baylee!!!
November 11th Updates
I am SO sorry for a whole month without updates. I’ve just been busy, busy, busy and haven’t
had any time to write except for on the weekends… and even then, I have other things
going on and am often just too tired. =P
So it took me awhile, but finally, Chapter 192 of “By My Side” is
finished and posted. The next chapter is
actually almost done too, so I don’t think it will be another month before I
update again. Stay tuned for that and a
new hosted story!
October 8th Updates
Chapter 191 of “By My Side” is up!
Thank you, Christopher Columbus, for “discovering America” and giving me
this day off work to complete my chapter. =D
October 4th Updates
I apologize for the delay in updates – Chapter 191 of BMS isn’t quite
done yet, but hopefully it will be soon – I have a 3-day weekend coming up.
I do have a small update to the site today though – hosted author Nina
surprised me by making three fanlistings related to my writing! There’s now an official Broken fanlisting, a
By My Side fanlisting, and a fanlisting for me called “Dare to Dream.” I swear I did not put her up to this!! I am flattered though! =D

B-Day, Kevin!!!
September 9th Updates
Chapter 190 of “By My Side” is up – enjoy! =P
If you haven’t checked out Jive’s official site for Bsb, in all its
revamped glory, you definitely should – it’s actually like a real site
now! http://www.thebackstreetboys.com If anyone registers there or is already a
member, I’m rokofages75 – add me to your friends! =D http://www.thebackstreetboys.com/user/rokofages75
August 26th Updates
Okay, so you know me by now – whenever I say one thing, it usually means
something else. So that “last update in
awhile” business only held true for four days.
This time. Chapter 189 of “By My
Side” is up – I had lots of fun writing that this weekend. I’m sorry to say I just finished it tonight
and haven’t even started on the next one, so it could be a little while before
that’s up. Bear with me. :)
August 22nd Updates
Chapter 188 of “By My Side” is up, and I have to warn you, this could be
the last update in awhile. The official
first day of school is tomorrow, and I will be going not as the student, but
the teacher this time. Crazy!!
Needless to say, it may take me some time to get adjusted and get to a
place where I feel like I can relax and write, so please be patient. :)
Happy 34th B-Day,
Howie!!!
August 11th Updates
Chapter 187 of “By My Side” has been posted. Hope you like!
August 7th Updates
Chapter 186 of “By My Side” is up!
Good things come to those who give feedback! ;)
August 2nd Updates
Chapter 185 of “By My Side” is up!
Enjoy!
July 27th Updates
Sorry for the delay in updates.
Two words: HARRY POTTER!!!
Blame the wizard for my lack of writing.
That said, Chapter 184 of “By My Side” is now up, and I also have another
new hosted story from Honey called “The Baylee Chronicles.” It’s actually a series of short stories
starring Baylee Littrell as a pint-sized detective! It’s an adorable parody of those old-school detective
stories, and you must check it out, cause it’s seriously too cute! The first two of Baylee’s cases are up and
can be found under “The Baylee Chronicles” in the Group section and on the main
Hosted page. Here’s a direct link: http://www.geocities.com/ds_hosted3/baylee.html
Finally, I’ve updated the Links page with a link to my friend Amy’s new
site, Backstreet Boys All Access! Right
now it’s being updated daily, and you can find great hosted fics and a picture
of the day every day. Check it out! http://www.geocities.com/backstreetboysallaccess/
July 10th Updates
Look at this, 4 chapters in 4 days!
Chapter 183 of “By My Side” is up – go me! ;) Enjoy!
The soundtrack pages for that and Broken are also up and running again,
complete with music players so you can listen to the songs.
I also have a new sister site, Epic-Love-Story.org. Check it out!
July 8th Updates
Back with another update already!
Chapter 182 of “By My Side” is up… and I have to say, I had fun writing
this one, wrote it all in one shot last night. ;) Hope you enjoy!
As promised, I also have another new hosted story by Honey, author of
“Not Your Average Cinderella Story.”
This one is a Brian/Nick AU called “Whitmore Lake.” It’s in the Combo section – check it out! Here’s a direct link: http://www.geocities.com/ds_hosted3/whitmore.html
Also, in case you haven’t found it there yet, I added a new quiz to the
Quizzes section called “What Kind of Reader Are You?” And finally, I have a new sister site,
Twilight Fiction - http://twilight-fiction.net/ If you like historical romance fics, this is
the site for you!
July 6th Updates
Big update today! Chapters 180-181
of “By My Side” are up. Also, Chapters
12-32 of Esther’s “I Still…” are up, and let me tell you, this story is getting
GOOD! BMS readers, you should definitely
check it out – I think you’ll like it!!
I also have a new hosted story, “Not Your Average Cinderella Story” by
Honey. It’s a group story, and it’s…
well… NOT your average Cinderella story. ;)
Please note that it’s rated R for strong language and adult content
(see, already not sounding much like Cinderella, is it? Hehe).
Two more stories by Honey will be up in the next few updates, so stay
tuned!
July 2nd Updates
Well, as you can see, I finally revamped.
I had been thinking about doing this for awhile – loved the old layout,
but it’s always nice to have something fresh – and I finally got inspired and
spent the night making this. Hope you
like! J
Real update will be coming soon; I have a bunch of new hosted stories to
start posting!
June 26th Updates
Huge update today! Episode 3 of
“00Carter” is now up – it’s our longest and most complex yet, and it reveals a
lot of back story, so check it out!
Also, Chapter 179 of “By My Side” is up – it’s also pretty long, at 14
pages, and I’m gonna put a sap warning on the end of it – have a napkin handy
cause you might get a little sticky from all the sugary sweetness. ;) Hope you like both of them – feedback is always
appreciated!
As for hosted updates, I have a brand new hosted story, “I Still…” by
Esther. It’s a Nick novel that isn’t yet
finished, and the first eleven chapters are up on the hosted page. More of that will be coming soon. It’s really good so far, so check it out and
be sure to let Esther know what you think!
Here’s a direct link: http://www.geocities.com/ds_hosted3/istill.html
June 11th Updates
Sorry for the delay in updates; I was gone on vacation last week. But I’m back now, and Chapter 178 of “By My
Side” is up. My muse may or may not
still be on vacation, as I haven’t written much of anything since before I
left, so any motivating feedback would be appreciated. ;) Thanks for reading!!
A new 00Carter episode is on its way – it’s done and being proofread, so
it should be up on my next update.
May 26th Updates
As promised, Episode 21 of “Code Blue” is finally finished and
online. Enjoy! http://www.dreamers-sanctuary.com/codeblue
May 23rd Updates
Okay, that summer vacation mindset has started kicking in, so my muse has
gotten her act together, and I’ve been writing more! That means Chapters 176 AND 177 of “By My
Side” are up. And Code Blue fans, stay
tuned, cause the next episode will be up tomorrow or Friday, guaranteed. (It’s about freaking time, right?? Yeah, I know…) Enjoy!
May 21st Updates
Chapter 175 of “By My Side” is up!
Also I have a new hosted story by the talented Sarah, author of “Second
Chances” and “Then Again.” It’s another
Brian fic, and it’s called “Poster Girl.”
It’s already finished, and it’s a short novella, which means there is
absolutely no excuse for not reading it – it’s a really cool and unique story,
not what you’d expect in a Brian fic!
Check it out in the Brian hosted section, or here’s a direct link: http://www.geocities.com/ds_hosted3/poster.html Enjoy!
Also, if you’re looking for a new place to read and post Bsb fanfic,
check out the brand new Backstreet-Fiction.com,
run by Karah. It’s like AbsoluteChaos,
where you can post your own stories, and also search for stories by genre,
character, etc. to read. Check it out!
May 9th Updates
I’m SO sorry for the long time in between updates! I’ve just been really busy with finishing
school, so that had to be first priority.
But I do have a few updates to hopefully make up for it! First, the REAL version of Chapter 174 of “By
My Side” is up. It’s short – sorry – but
I’ve already started on 175, and it shouldn’t take me another month to get that
one up. ;) I also have an update on
“Not Another Teenybopper Fanfic”!
Chapters 26-28 of that are up.
And finally, there have been some updates to the “00Carter” site. Not a new episode, but updates to the cast
and extras pages. Check out the site!
April 4th Updates
Episode 2 of my newest collaboration “00Carter” is up! Also, if you still want to submit a character
to be a “Carter Girl” in the story, the contest will be open until April
15. Go forth and submit! http://www.dreamers-sanctuary.com/00carter
April 1st Updates
Hope you enjoyed the “new layout”!
APRIL FOOL! =P Not my best, but
what can I say – I pulled it out of my ass yesterday when I couldn’t think of
anything better. A trippy, obnoxious
layout is better than nothing, right?
The old layout will be back tomorrow, so no worries.
In serious updates, Chapter 174 of “By My Side” is up, and I also have a
new hosted short story by Pat called “My Muse.”
You can find it in the AJ section.
Enjoy!
March 25th Updates
Chapter 173 of “By My Side” is up!
Also, Pat’s hosted story “Mistakes Have Consequences” is finished! Chapters 25-31 and the Epilogue are up in the
Hosted AJ section.
I got a new music player for the site, and I can put more than one song
of it, so if you’re sick of hearing Safest Place to Hide, there’s 13 other
songs currently on there for your enjoyment.
Most of them are Bsb, but I also put on a few songs by other artists
that I like cause they’re pretty or cause they just fit. I’ll change the selection when I feel like
it.
Enjoy! :)
March 22nd Updates
As promised, Chapter 172 of “By My Side” is up! You won’t like where it ends LOL, but never
fear, 173 should be up over the weekend, along with some hosted updates. Thanks for reading! :)
March 18th Updates
Sorry for the delay, but Chapter 171 of “By My Side” is now up, and
Chapter 172 should be up in the next few days.
(If I don’t post it, kick me.)
Also, I updated the soundtrack to Broken with an mp3 player so you can
actually listen to the songs, and I added the soundtrack to BMS to the BMS
page. It’s still under construction; not
all of the BMS songs work because some of them are in the wrong file format and
need to be converted, and I’ll be adding links to lyrics and chapters
eventually. But you can listen to most
of the songs now. Enjoy!
March 4th Updates
For the first time in weeks, I had a weekend where I had NOTHING I needed
to do! So you know what that means…
writing time!! And lots of it! So, here are your updates! Chapters 169 and 170 of “My By Side” are
up! There’s also a new extra up for BMS,
a delightful little story written by Anita called “The Many Deaths of the Most
Hated BMS Character: Jamie.” She wrote
it as a joke after a conversation on the DS forum, and it’s posted on Absolute
Chaos. You can read it by going here: http://accidentalchaos.net/viewstory.php?sid=8317
or clicking the link on the BMS table of contents.
The 00Carter site has also been updated with some new extras, including
Lancybassy’s Beautification Nation, Nick’s diary, Diamond Divine’s Dating Do’s
and Don’ts, Paging Dr. Red Jewel, and the soundtrack. Check it out, and stay tuned for the next
episode!
February 20th Updates
First off, thanks for the reviews on my new collaboration,
“00Carter”! The people on my forum were
very complimentary, and the other writers and I are psyched! We appreciate the feedback. We now have a group email account for the
story, so if you have comments on 00Carter, you can send it to all of us at 00Carter@dreamers-sanctuary.com.
No actual story updates today, but the 00Carter site has been updated
with the “Be a Carter Girl” contest! See
the site for details on how you or a character or your creation could be a
contact of 00Carter or Rok. http://www.dreamers-sanctuary.com/00carter/
And speaking of Rok…
Happy 32nd
B-Day, Brian!!!
February 17th Updates
Exciting update today!!! I don’t
remember when the last time I was able to say this was, but… I have a new
story!
It’s actually a new collaboration, written in the style of Code Blue –
episodic, and with a whole team of writers.
This one is called “00Carter,” and it’s intended to be a James
Bond-esque AU, in which Nick and other members of the Bsb are secret agents out
to save the world from dastardly villains.
It’s part comedy/parody, part serious suspense/mystery, with some drama
and some romance and who knows what else thrown in! It stars all five Boys and has some other
cameos as well. We just finished the
first episode, and we’re pretty proud of how it turned out!
I am the first to admit that 1) I’m not generally crazy about AUs, and 2)
I’ve only seen one Bond movie and have no desire to see it again; I’ve never
had any interest in 007 stuff. So if
these are the thoughts running through your head right now, I can absolutely
empathize, and I have this request:
please, before you write it off as something that won’t interest you,
give it a chance! Check out the site we
made for it, try reading the first episode, and if you absolutely hate it, then
that’s okay – at least you’ll be able to say you tried it. ;) I hope you will! We’re very excited to hear back from readers.
You can check out the site and story at http://www.dreamers-sanctuary.com/00carter/ or the
link is posted in the Collaborated Stories section. Hope you enjoy!!
February 14th Updates
Sorry it’s been so long since the last update! Busy, busy.
It’s only thanks to a couple of snow days that I’ve been able to get
caught up on my writing and finish a chapter!
Chapter 168 of “By My Side” is finally up, and it’s hopefully a cute/fun
one, in honor of Valentine’s Day.
Chapters 19-24 of Pat’s “Mistakes Have Consequences” have also been
posted.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
January 28th Updates
Happy 27th
Birthday to Nick!!!
I wish I could have had an update out today, but while the next chapter
of BMS is started, it’s definitely not finished, so no such luck. It’s been a busy weekend, but hopefully I’ll
have something done by next weekend. I’m
just posting cause it’s Nick’s b-day. =P
January 21st Updates
Well, this update was meant to go up a lot sooner, but I started my
student teaching last week and got a little distracted with that. Sorry for leaving you hanging! Chapter 167 of “By My Side” is now up. I hope I’ll be able to write more of the next
chapter this week, but it might take me awhile to get back into my school
routine, so bear with me. Enjoy the
chapter!!
January 13th Updates
I really meant to update on AJ’s b-day, but I didn’t quite have an update
then. I do now though. Chapter 166 of “By My Side” is up, with
another one on the way shortly. And if
you haven’t read the companion short Veronica wrote, “A Friendly Game,” you
should check it out and let her know what you think! It’s on the BMS page.
Also, the first new hosted story of 2007 is here! It’s a new novel by Amy, author of several
stories on this site, including “Catch Me When I Fall” and “Remembering.” It’s called “Always,” and it’s a Nick
story. It’s already finished and fully-posted,
so it can be found in the Nick section, or here’s a direct link: http://www.geocities.com/ds_hosted3/always.html
Happy Belated 29th
Birthday to AJ!!!
January 4th Updates
No BMS update today (although the next chapter is well underway), but
there is a BMS-related update. My friend Veronica, author of “A Write Kind
of Love” (and one half of the BMS “Interview with Nick”), wrote a short story
to go with BMS, about the main characters playing Monopoly. It’s a fun little story, and it’s really
cute, and you know you can’t resist any kind of competition that involves Nick
and Jamie, so check it out! It’s called
“A Friendly Game,” and it’s linked at the bottom of the BMS chapter index, or
here’s a direct link: http://www.dreamers-sanctuary.com/bmsmonopoly.html
Also, attention writers: my friend
Rose, who is part of the “Code Blue” writing team, has an idea for a new AU
story/series called 00Carter, based
on the idea of Nick as a James Bond-style secret agent. It would be written similar to the way CB is,
as an episodic series. It will probably
be part comedy/parody, part serious suspense, and it will star all of the Backstreet
Boys, with some additional characters as well.
Since the writing team strategy has worked well for CB, she wants to
follow suit and gather a team of writers to help her with this project. So if you’re interested, whether you’ve seen
any Bond movies or not (it’s okay if you haven’t; I’ve only seen one, and I’m
signed on to this LOL), please consider joining us!
You can read more about the project at the AbsoluteChaos Discussion
Boards, in these two threads:
http://absolutechaos.net/fictalk/index.php/topic,81.0.html
http://absolutechaos.net/fictalk/index.php/topic,99.0.html
or in the fanfic section of my forum, The Sanctuary.
There’s a Yahoo Group to join if you’re interested; see the forum posts
for the link.
January 2nd Updates
Happy 2007!!! It’s another new
year, and that means another year of stories and updates on this site. Part of me can’t believe I’ve stuck with this
hobby for 7 years now, and another part of me can’t imagine my life without it. Thanks for coming to my site and reading my stories;
you guys make it fun. J
I don’t really make New Years resolutions officially, but if I did, one
of them for this year would be to finish BMS!
This is the year, people… it’s gonna get finished LOL. To further that goal, Chapter 165 of “By My
Side” is up. It’s a Christmas chapter;
forgive me, I’m constantly a holiday behind LOL. Hope you enjoy!
