There are so many scenes that I've written that I absolutely love.
First one that comes to mind. The scene where Nick's taking a bath and Brian runs in the bathroom to tell Nick that Amanda is in labor in You Give Love A Bad Name is hilarious. I crack up when I think of that one.
The one in Finding Carter when Nick and Kevin are drinking on New Year's and Kevin spills a huge secret (won't post it for spoilers)
The moment in When I Grow Up where there's a huge twist near the end of the story (again can't post what it is cause I'm sure neither of you have read it)
In Figured You Out when Howie figures out that Valerie and Lucy are the same person, and the boys do detective work to find where Nick is. I think that chapter was one of my favorites in that story.
There's really so many moments but these were the ones that stuck out.

I can actually answer Tracy’s question about favorite scenes and moments because even though I have a crap memory, many scenes and moments I’ve written I’ll never forget.
Some of my favorites are the scene in Whatever the Night May Bring, where the guys have to walk through a pile of dead birds on the road and cringed as their bones broke under their feet. I don’t know what it is about that, but it was the most visual one for me in that story.
Same with Shadow Woods when there were a bunch of ghostly heads peering just above the water line in the lake.
The scene where Brian remembers writing the word MINE on Nick’s arm
And two from Why I’d Do It All Again - when Nick falls out of the window trying to answer his cell phone and when he sees the guys in the deli as he’s drinking a milkshake lol
None of those are earth shattering, well maybe except for the MINE one, but just little scenes and moments that I loved writing.
In closing, I’m very dark lol

I love little moments like that, the ones that still make you laugh months or years later. I always wonder if anyone else finds them as funny as I do, but I figure if it still makes me laugh however long later, then it's done its job.
I love that Nick was taking a bath; what an inopportune time for labor.

C'mon, spoilers! Spoilers! Spoilers! I'm kidding; stay true to your spoilers policy. There should be a place on this board where we can all tell each other spoilers in the context of our discussions, but you can only see it if you're registered.

I don't remember if I'd read this one (or you wrote it during my hiatus), but I said "eww" audibly as I pictured dead bird bones breaking underfoot. And the fact that I can picture it from a summary means we're both extremely dark, go us!
