The fandom is RULL DRY right now, especially with news that there probably isn't a reunion coming any time soon. But one thing this fandom does is completely ignore THE BOYS(TM) and keep writing stories featuring our fave pop stars.

The one challenge we constently run (at least the last few years) is Awesome August... and May is a great time to start thinking about what you're going to write. IF YOU WANT A THEME, I HAVE AN IDEA...

I'm thinking about song tiles. Album titles maybe? Pick a song/album by an NSYNCer (or NSYNC adjacent but remember your story has to have at least one member of NSYNC in it!) and form a story around it. Your intro should list the song/album.

I hope that gets the ideas flowing and we'll have a nice bunch of new stories come August!

Also, so sorry about the email issue. Our upgrade broke some things and I need to consult with someone smarter to fix it.  Again, if you need a password reset, please reach out to me on social or by email.

xoxo,

Dom

I wanted to ensure that our members were updated on minor changes to social media accounts on  X/Twitter and Bluesky. Since it appears the site is going to continue along the path it's going ( and I am not in agreement with that path) I am migrating my personal account and *Nsyncfiction accounts to Bluesky.

The accounts will remain up and functioning at X, but updates only. I posted a series of tweets to that effect today.

Find us at Bluesky if you're there: https://bsky.app/profile/nsyncfiction.bsky.social

And you can always reach me at my account at Booksbydlwhite.com. We're still on Instagram though I don't check the account quite as often: instagram.com/nsyncfiction.

Should the site go down, you can still DM me, I just may not see it right away. If you're in our Discord (available to paid members) post up there, I'll see it immediately or email me at nsyncfictionarchive [at] gmail dot com.

Greetings, fanfiction writers and fellow *NSYNC fans! I come to you today to offer a few resources to our authors looking to level up their art.  I also want to gently encourage writers to please do a round of read through and editing on your fanfiction chapters and stories. The reading experience is very important-- if your reader can't get lost in the story, your reader can't reap the benefits of your work.  In this time when fans are inspired, the archive may receive some attention and I want your work to SHINE. Spelling, grammar, spacing all need a closer look.

Need more assistance? Reach out. We are NSYNCFICTION on twitter and Instagram and nsyncfictionarchive at GMAIL.

Following are great free/low cost resources for spellcheck/grammar/writing and story planning- don't forget that for $3 a month you can join our Patreon (PATREON.COM/NFCOMMUNITY), which gives access to our discord community where you can commune with our writers and fellow fans. We have a GREAT time in there!
