Most challenging

I think the problem is I do not posess an inner AJ. I think I have an inner all of the others but whe it comes to him, I can't relate in a positive way. LOL Which is weird because if he was just a normal guy and we went to school together, I could see him in my group of friends, but he'd be the one i'd be the most disconnected from.

RokofAges75:
See, I'm the opposite - personality-wise, I am more like Kevin/Howie than the other guys, but I enjoy writing the other three way more.  I don't know why that is.  I guess even if I can relate better to Kevin and Howie, I still don't find them as interesting and fun to write as Nick, Brian, and AJ.  Really, I think it's just because Brian, Nick, and AJ are my favorites.

Rose:
Honestly, I think I can write Nick, AJ and Brian the easiest is cause they're the ones I relate to. Nick's random process is very similar to my own lol. Only magnified since I think Nick's head would be worse LOL. Brian's way of just knowing things but being really silly and able to go with the flow is like a really good friend of mine. And then, AJ's issues hit close to home, so I find him easy to get into. And all his "wtf" type things he can say, well that's a very warped sense of humor of mine coming into play LOL.

Howie and Kevin, I just can't relate to them. Kevin's easier though cause I use a lot of my oldest brother's traits and put them onto him.

julilly:
I never find it hard to write Kevin... in fact I find it quite easy because I just don't do it! :P

For me there's two challenging bits. One of them has to do with fanfic as a whole. It is SO easy to not describe your characters based on the assumption that people know what they look like, their personalities, etc. I often find it weird to go into physical descriptions of the guys because I'm thinking 'ok, everyone already knows this it's on their desktop' or something lol

The actual writing challenge comes in the form of dialogue. I have ZERO problem with dialogue, and that is the problem. I find that I tend to visualize things like a movie, and write it out like a movie so it's easy to let people monologue instead of describing the scene.

FrickingKaos:
Hmmm I have a hell of a time writing Howie. I know hardly anything about him...its not that I don't like Howie, its just that he is hard to get right. I'm not sure if this makes sense, but he is just difficult for me. Him and Kevin especially. Nick's siblings, I avoid them completely. Too many characters gets confusing honestly. I only used a 12 year old Aaron and Nick's father Bob in my AU series. I don't like Aaron so I would rather not deal with him lol
