I really identified with Nick in RMTW. Minus the Alzheimer's obviously LOL, he had a lot of my own issues. Aaron was based heavily on my own brother. I have four siblings myself and I always understood how that can be trying. The idea of trying to live up to expectations and knowing you're failing but trying anyway. I always put the most of me into Nick, but I think I did it more here than in any other story. So this Nick really felt cathartic in some ways to write.
