About the Authors

Who are we really? It's a scary question, believe me. Rina is the ringleader. While Alicia is the one who made her start listening to nsync, Rina is the one who sent her to slash. Once Alicia was converted, Rina turned her attentions to Nydia, who had never listened to boybands before. Nydia was resistant, Rina backed off, but couldn't resist sharing her favorite quotes, stories, and pictures. Before long, Nydia had crossed over to the dark side of boyband music and slash, and the triumverate was complete.

Alicia
Alicia, apparently, is responsible for the plummet into fandom that Rina and Nydia took. She laughs evilly at that thought. She tried to resist real person fiction, but finally surrendered when she realized how much fun these five boys are to read and write about. She writes mostly friendship, but *someone* wouldn't allow her to post them here. If her archive looks smaller than the others, that's why. *g*
Alicia's a JC girl through and through. She loves his voice and his crinkly, happy eyes. Her favorite *NSYNC songs are "Some Dreams," "Something Like You," and, most recently, the "I Want You Back: Blues Remix."

Nydia
Nydia drags her feet every time she's pointed towards a new fandom. Once in, however, she falls hard, and nsync was no exception. She dragged her feet as long as possible, but stories like Jaesepha's Coldhearted won her over, and she finally surrendered with the words "They're dorks, but they're cute, cuddly dorks." She's finally forgiven Rina for getting her hooked and making her spend money on CDs. (Thanks to Rina, Nydia knew their full names and could identify them from pictures well before she became a fan. This horrified her at the time.)
Nydia read a bunch of Chris/Lance stories when she first started to fall, and they're still her favorite pairing. In fics, Chris is probably her favorite nsyncer, but JC is the one she lusts after the most. Lance comes in a close second in both categories. Really, it's just so hard to choose. She's still new to the music, but "It's Gonna Be Me" and "This I Promise You" are two of her favorite songs at the moment.

Rina
Rina is well out of college. As such, she's a little embarrassed to be such a big fan of nsync, but that didn't stop her from rushing head-first into the fandom. After all, with all the sex moves they perform and songs they sing, it's more than appropriate for all ages, right? Besides, they're awfully pretty. Rina's written in many fandoms over the last ten years, and her stories can be found at Chasing Rainbows. After a lifetime of listening predominantly to oldies, she's a recent convert to boybands and pop music, but is enjoying every moment of her long, hard fall.
Rina's favorite nsync song is "I Want You Back" blues style, but she also has a soft spot for the classic "I Need Love." Her favorite nsyncer is JoeyLance, and she loves every pairing possible, right up through GSF. Lance/Chris and Joey/JC might be her favorites, if she had to choose, however.
