luna610:
Just want to say that this is a great story! I'm a bit behind but I'm going to catch up especially with this being the featured story and all :)

So today I decided to catch up and I couldn't stop reading! This isn't the type of story I would usually go for but AJBrianFan suggested it to me and I really enjoy it. I know that you were worried about the drinking problem, but I think you do an excellent job portraying that. Sometimes it can get either too repetitive, unrealistic, or just in bad taste...but not the case with this. I think you make it seem very realistic and with the issues he was having, I can imagine he'd reach the breaking point!
I also love the relationship that AJ and Nick have. It's really sweet.
One question: In writing Laurel's character...di d you have Lauren in mind?

The last full week of February is upon us already. Time to finish up Shades of Gray with chapters 31 - 36.
Summer, what was best part about writing this story for you?
How did you feel when it came to an end? Was it hard for you to give up your characters?
If you chose to write an alternative ending, what would it be?
Overall, is there anything you regret about this story?
What was your absolute favorite line or thought if you have one in the entire story. Something that sticks in your mind as being overly profound or clever?
For everyone else, why don't you go ahead and tell us what was your favorite chapter or just favorite thing about this story in general!

Yikes, had to be away for a bit. :(
Summer, what was best part about writing this story for you?
Creating the characters and their relationships with each other. I love to figure out how people are going to relate to one another and interweave their personalities together.
How did you feel when it came to an end? Was it hard for you to give up your characters?
Well, it's not finished yet ... so no lol. But I'm sure it will be bittersweet when the fic is finally finished. It's always sad to be done writing a fic for me, but it's nice cuz you accomplished something you set your mind to. Plus, you get to start a new one lol.
If you chose to write an alternative ending, what would it be?
I can't say lol ... I don't want to give anything away. After finishing the fic I'll post something about what another ending I had in mind would be.
Overall, is there anything you regret about this story?
Not yet ... knock on wood lol.
