Some of us ended up starting a Carter family fic instead - haha. Eventually I'll write Kevin & Nick, if I feel I've more time. I swear, there's never enough time in the day anymore! Lol.

Feel good stories lol

Just kidding. Great job with your first foray into suspense Sarah. Remmeber you don't have to kill people to be suspenseful. Especially Nick or Kevin!!! Kill Brian or AJ for a change.

I admit, when I wrote about slicing open Kevin's skin, I pictured dissecting the cat in my high school anatomy class. It was an interesting experience, and, well, it totally helped me write the story lol

I rather enjoyed that foray into bloodiness lol Must do it again :P

but my murder is relevant to the plot! I had to kill! And I didn't kill NIck! (though I easily could have.)


plus my challenge story was the heartfelt, make you want to cry, warm fuzzy feelings type so I get points to balance out the killing...   right?

I dissected a cat in high school too.  That was some inner turmoil right there... my love of cats vs. my love of slicing and dicing and seeing body parts.

Cats...pigs... squid...what else did I dissect?  I even got to go see a human cadaver (or however you spell it).  I have to imagine the experience helps out with the writing.

Eeewww, yeah, I had to do the pig disection in biology back in like 10th grade. My friend and I were lab partners for that and she was so squeemish over the whole thing that she made me do the initial incision and the cutting through the ribs. *cringes at the memory of the sound and feeling of rib cutting *gag** R.I.P LuLu the pig... LoL

I almost failed because I refused to dissect a cat. :(

I knew I was going to be a musician and never planned on being a murdering psychopath so I didn't feel the need. She didn't appreciate me saying that though lol

^ Haha...Man, if I would have said that to my biology teacher...she had a wicked sense of humor, but she was also a bit looney/psychotic...she might have turned the scalpel on me if I would have said that.
