Hello everyone! Just a quick note to introduce myself. For those who don't know me, my real name is Miranda, I live in the UK, (which means I keep really random times on here) and I am your newest site moderator! *trumpet sounds Take Back The Night style*

I can't wait to get involved with the site and help plan some really exciting new challenges and things for you!

If you miss me in the chat, you can always find me on twitter (I'm a little addicted) under the name @MirandaWyeth. I also have facebook so feel free to drop me a line!

It's time... Follow the Challenges link in the navigation panel for details. Respond here in comments or via twitter @nsyncfiction or emailing nsyncfictionarchive@gmail.com to select your day of posting!

Here are the guidelines:

-The challenge will run from May 1-31, and there can be no more than two authors on the same day. 

-Pick your day by replying on Twitter via @nsyncfiction or emailing at nsyncfictionarchive@gmail.com

As we take our steps through spring and begin to plan our summers let us think about how far we've come, where we've been, and how ultimately throughout all of the years gone by we have remained connected. It has been a long journey for a lot of us growing up together as dreamers, authors, readers, and just plain old *NSYNC fans. What Vikki, the founder of NF.COM, created was something magical. She found a niche that a lot of us took on as our home. In honor of that, in honor of our favorite men, let as many of us as possible join together in our newest fiction challenge: #FullCircle. See the details under the "Challenges" link. Create a main character whom is a writer/reader that stumbles upon a community, that thrives there, and how her life is transformed by it when an *NSYNCer takes notice. Use your creative license! UNWRITTEN is back online here on NF so make sure to send us a message on http://nsync-fiction.com/unwritten to let us know who you would like to see interviewed for the coming month! STAY *NSYNC!  

The results are finally in! Thank you to everyone who nominated and voted. We had a fantastic awards season with an impressive number of participants. Thank you everyone!

Congratulations to all of our winners!

Hello authors and readers!

Been a little late on the updating (I know you can stone me now if you'd like) but I'm here and I promise I've been in the background. Thanks to all the girls for helping out during my little busy-ness. Anyway, we are taking the link down for award voting submissions tonight at midnight, so there is still a few hours left to get some last minute votes in! Please go to nsyncfictionawards.wordpress.com to vote! If you would still like to submit yourself for the Valensync Challenge the survey is still up for any last minute authors! Please take the survey here, and I will be sending out matches tomorrow! surveymonkey.com/s/9PDB88K 

Thank you all so much for being patient! I see so many new authors and stories and it's so exciting to see the site buzzing with life again! Talk to you all soon!

The voting for season 8 of the NF Awards is now open! You can see a list of our nominees at https://nsyncfictionawards.wordpress.com/ and you can find the link to the voting form there as well. Just choose your pick out of each drop down box and submit the form, it's easy!

Voting will run from 1/19-2/1, and we will announce the winners once we have a chance to count all the votes. Good luck to all our nominees! 

Hello lovely authors and readers!

I wanted to give everyone a friendly reminder to please check the rating of your stories before you post them. It's so easy to forget (I've done it myself!) but it's really important, especially for those of us who write more adult-oriented content, to have accurate ratings. 

When you add a new story, the box to change the rating is right above the box to add 'Chapter Notes.' And if you've forgotten after you've added a story, it's super easy to go in and edit. If you have any questions/comments/concerns, please contact me or any of the admins and we'll be happy to help you.

Hello everyone!  With Valentines Day quickly approaching, we wanted to try something new and different this year. In the past there have just been generic 'write a story about valentines day' challenges. We thought we would put a twist on it by making it more of a secret santa type thing, with less guidelines. So instead of having a secret santa, you will have a Valentine.  This is a first try so if we are successful we can make this a yearly thing. I hope you will all participate, especially those of you that missed out on the Secret Santa Challenge.

What you will do is pick 3 key words or subjects that you would like included in your story. We have created a survey similar to the one we used for secret santa to make this possible.  For example: cookies, chocolate, teddy bears. Or Breakups, a rebound, rain. Things like that.

Guidelines:

Your story should be no less than 500 words.

Fill out the short survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/9PDB88K

Sign ups will be open from 1/3/15 until 1/24/15. Stories must be posted no later than 3/1/2015 which gives you more than enough time. Remember these don't have to be particularly long, unless you want them to be.

Question? Email us at nsyncfictionarchive@gmail.com

Happy Valensync!
