"How can one not dream while writing? It is the pen which dreams. The blank page gives the right to dream.” -- Gaston Bachelard
Just trying to free my mind through writing...
YES! CUT ME OFF! YES! WHOO! OH EM GEE!
I was reading this and touching my lips, simultaneously. I mean, it was like I could feel him [or what I can ONLY dream he would feel like]. My god, woman, you want to kill me or something?!?!
And, umm....yes, marriage. Let's go! Now! ASAP! YA! AHORITA! RAPIDO! lordy...i love it. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Sequel to Up Against the Wall.
At sixteen, Mackenzie Desrosiers has the world in the palm of her hand thanks in part to her ever growning choreography resume. When an unforeseen wrench gets thrown into her plans, she finds herself thrust into the spotlight that she had once been content to stay out of. No matter how busy she becomes she vows that the boys of *NSYNC will always come first, a fact that a powerful man in the world of entertainment becomes privy to. It’s not long before her life becomes a juggling act and she grasps onto anything that can give her an ounce of control. Even if that means taking some drastic measures.
"They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel." --Carl W. Buechner
uh oh...DRAMA!!!!
so funny that guys freak out about tampons, pads, bras, periods, etc. ridiculous!
nice job hun!
ok...seriously JC? Man up! Geez, I think I just gained a newfound level of dislike for Bobbie! Argh! Mack, honey, she's gonna blow up! She's DA BOMB! Now, if only she were a few years older, her and Ben would be HOTTER! whoo!
Author's Response: And here I didn't think there was a different level of dislike for Bobbie. Yes, if only she were a few years older, imagine THAT power couple, lol. Thanks for the review
so i'm going to try to control my "eek"s but....ummm.....EEK! u had to bring BOOBie & Nick! u're killing me! the drama --- its begun! ah! i love it, keep it comin'
Author's Response: Yes yes, I had to start this story with a bang. You and your eeks, hahaha. Thanks for the review, the second one should be up soon.
ok, really, so we ALL never understood JC's facination with bimbos & hos, but we all let it go because we love him. And, we all believe that you gotta kiss a lot of frogs [or dogs] to find your prince [or princess].
Supermarket run: omg! i absolutely LOVE grocery shopping & i think i would LIVE in the grocery store if Chris was my shopping partner! eek! i love him! oh no.....Mack?!?!
Her sarcasm midst her organ-ripping [literally] pain amazes me, inspires me, and excites me. Hehe....i love Mack. I love Chris. I may be starting to turn a new leaf with Nick, but AJ, oh AJ is on my No-No List now....gosh, what a d-bag.
I love how Lynn ALWAYS comes to the rescue! she's like super bionic woman....i love her.
keep it comin! i gotta run back to the campsite...ttyl!
You consider me to be a strong person, but let me tell you, you my dear are ten times stronger. I want you to know, which I know that you do, is that none of what happens to you is every your fault. I hope that your abuser (makes my skin crawl to refer to this individual as such) finds peace with themselves for the pain that they cause you. And I hope that you too are at peace with yourself. It is something that you should not have to carry around. I love you hun, and I'm here for you. You know that. Hugs!
Author's Response: It took me a while to understand that it's not my fault but I still can't help but feel that way sometimes, but thanks for your kind words. *Superflyingtacklehug!*

Sometimes the only way to go as high up as possible is to fall as low as possible.
Mack's strong & she's got a GREAT support system. Good job, hun. Loved it.
I'm really glad that all her weaknesses are becoming known. Justin was right, she is weak for allowing herself to get there. But, she's stronger for admitting that she needs help. I loved this chapter...keep them comin!
Author's Response: Well, she could only keep them in for so much longer. Justin is right and you're right as well about the admitting that she needs help. The next one should be coming at you soon.
ok, ok, I give....go BSB! Mack needs some friendly lovin' and only they can give it to her.
Best Line: "He had been making weird engine noises and rocking from side to side in his seat, pretending he was riding a motorcycle or something."
LMAO! Oh man, my sides hurt. Oh gosh, hehe, epic.
Loved it hun!
Baby Big Ears had me rolling! The sarcasm is just - wow. She truly is fluent in that as a third language. I loved the chapter, and I loved the song choices.
I just have ONE teenie tiny bone to pick with you -- was it really necessary for Fatima to FORCE Mack to apologize? It was humiliating, I think. And, to me, it just put on display Mack once again accommodating those around her. I don't know. It rubbed me wrong. Sorry.
I didn't realize I'd missed three chapters while I was away, but I'm glad I'm catching up. To be honest, this was a good chapter. Mack is really going through a rough time, and I truly think she's going through it along. She's being forced to grow up, and grow up quick. Her icy exterior is really cracking, and I think soon her big 'meltdown' might happen. Great job, keep up the good work! Great job on blanketing/cushioning the serious topics with humor/sarcasm.
Yay for catch-ups. If it were me I'd be like a slave to my computer to make sure I didn't stop until I read everything I missed. =)
At the end of the day, you're right, she is going through it alone. The others have a group of people to rely on but all she has is herself and, as you can see, it's starting to take it's toll on her. My forecast: a meltdown in the not-too-distant future. Thanks for the kind words!
Well I'll be damned, Mack opened her eyes. Sadie is a genius. I loved the conversatrion between Mack and Mamaw, it was much needed. All the talk between Rachel & Trace about Mack forgetting about them really shows how burned they must feel with Justin. And I suspect that something similar may happen with Mack. She loses her way when she cuts the Justin-bilical cord. Great job!
Author's Response:
She has finally seen the light and it's name is Sadie, haha.
Talking for Mack is much needed since she bottles everything up but yes, she needed to know that Mamaw loves her unconditionally. Same with Rachael and Trace although you're right when they say that they're burned. But it's baby steps for her to realize all the things she's done wrong. Baby steps, but she'll get there =).
Justin-bilical cord? Now that's a nice way of putting it, gave me a good idea actually. Thanks for the review!
i'm really horrible about keeping up with my reviews -- but let me tell you this: it's about damn time!
the only bad thing is Justin is too blind to see the meaning of this moment. I hope he opens his eyes soon!
i absolutely LOVE this story! Its so personable and ah....speechless.
Fave line: "Too late, Kobe for the lay-up, Gasol for the slam dunk."
GO LAKERS! BUMP LEBRON!
I'm not done so let it play
I need to feel it one more time
Don't give up even if it's late
When it feels so good we do it one more time
Don't stop
What you're doing
Don't stop
Yeah I like it
Don't stop
We'll keep it going til the lights come on
When all the moments slip away
At least we can say we did it one more time
JC finally figures out what it was that has been missing from his life.
uh.....ummm.....EEEK! i wish this were true! i'd die!
