Question of the day part 7
Rose:
Usually when I have the idea, I have a specific boy in mind. Sometimes I'll think about it and "cast" if I don't have one in my head immediately but usually I do. RMTW was always Nick. I never considered anyone else. I wanted him in his prime, easily unattached so I could steal away the entire life I had ahead of him, and someone who could slip back into bad habits and still be believable. Divine Intervention I guess technically could work for AJ but since Nick really did a complete 180, it fit him better. I've got a Brian story in my head I've been sitting on because it just can't fit anyone else.
I don't think I've written a story where I thought it should be someone else after finishing lol.

I think I would struggle the same way with a Howie or Kevin story. I love Howie and Kevin, but I just don't find them as interesting to write about (except in 00Carter). I love writing AJ better as a supporting character than a main character, but it depends on the story - I have written some stories with AJ as a main character. I do best when it's Brian or Nick in the lead role.
RokofAges75:
I don't think I've ever wished I had used a different boy in the lead role, but I do have one idea that I've had on the backburner since 2001 that started out as an AJ BSB story and has since evolved into a Brian AU LOL. Usually, though, once I decide which guy fits best, I stick with him.
FrickingKaos:
Forces of Nature isn't done yet, I've got 8 chapters posted. I took a hiatus from writing it because I was so stuck.
RokofAges75:
I hate when that happens. :(
