I included my one shots too Rose except for the categorizing of the points of view. You are really diverse as well! Go us!! I am missing three categories though. No historical or visuals for me. I was also surprised at how many third person stories I had. I really thought all of my stuff was first person lol

I was actually shocked at how diverse I was LOL. The POV stories almost killed me trying to list them all! I had to go and open a few cause I couldn't remember.

I had to open almost all of my novels because I couldn't remember which ones were first person. LOL I'm gld I did because the ultra lazy me was just going to say all of them were but most of them were actually third person!

I couldn't find a category to place my groundhog stories though! And my haunted house one lmao I think I put that one in suspense, maybe but I didn't have a random inanimate object or talking animal category. LOL

LOL I guess we could have added a "joke story" category!  I didn't include my tranny cancer story from April Fool's either.

That was hard! I didn't realize how many of my stories don't just focus on one boy (unless that one boy is Nick, LOL). Not surprising that I don't really have any AJ or Brian centered stories - though I do have stories that are from their POV. I find them the hardest to write about. I included ones that I've been working on pretty heavily that haven't been posted yet... because I've been writing them. So they count! haha.

You know, I find AJ very easy to write. But I always give him this jaded/twisted perspective lol.

I feel like I'd give him a jaded/bitter perspective as well, but I typically hand that off to Nick. So to write AJ with the same sort of attitude would be hard, because I'd have to make him different than Nick.

After filling this out I had no idea I'd written so many different stories in just 3 years of posting at AC. I'm actually shocked!

I like writing AJ as a supporting character/sidekick better than the main character.  But I do tend to have him star in a lot of my short stories; I didn't realize that until I filled this out LOL.

Nick's jaded too, but AJ's got that really twisted sense of humor, which is how I try to differentiate. That and Nick has his random moments lol. Basically Nick's a lot like me at times. Minus the whole jaded thing. I like to give Nick weird nuances, like singing to himself when he's nervous. AJ gets my sick and morbid humor lol.

Julie, I noticed the same thing. If it's not Nick in a one-shot, it's AJ when it comes to me lol.
