I really didn't put that much thought into the name. Andrew was the first name that came to mind, so I went with it lol I wish I had a more witty response but sadly, no.

mare:
Oh and to answer the brother part of that question, Tracy. You know how much I lovd brotherly bonds. I always try to include that in some way & when given the opportunity to give Nick a non douchey sibling like the ones he really is stuck with, I'm always more than happy to oblige. So, just like in Separate Ways where I gave him a new cool older brother & Protect & Serve where I made Kevin, AJ & Brian his brothers I decided Nickolas would make a great one as well.  :)

There were SO many scenes that ended up in this story that never meant to be there. This story really wrote itself lol

The whole dumpster scene came out of nowhere as did the scene where Nick meets max in the bathroom for the first time (a bathroom scene again lol) and the whole therapist part came out of nowhere lol

I really am the queen of suspense for this one because I never knew what the heck I was going to do! lol

I envy you for your ability to write that way!  I guess I used to write that way, but the results were not very good, and when I try to write without an outline now, I end up with writer's block and no inspiration (*cough*GR*cough*).  Yours always turn out like you planned it that way all along!

mare:
Thanks, Julie! Yeah, for some reason I just can't write with outlines. Maybe it's all the improv acting I have done in my life? But I kind of work better off the cuff although this one was by far the most unscripted story I have ever written lol I'm glad they all seem to work out in the end lol sometimes I worry they don't!

Mare, I'm one of the few people who hasn't read this story yet but I have plan to do so. :)
