This story has a great twist toYAY Resa! 

This story has a great twist to the whole romantic plot....it's different than what I've read before yet it still has those little tiny cliche moments that add that touch of cheesiness that makes it balance out well...if that makes any sense at all, LOL! It does in my mind!

I'll definitely try to be in here a lot this month since I'm a regular reader of this story.

Questions...
Do your characters take over and write the story themselves sometimes? OH my gosh…when don’t they!  I try to make it go in one direction, it sounds horrible and they make it go in another direction.  I have been fighting all FOUR main characters since the start of this story.  I finally said fine, write yourselves!

What is something that happened that you didn't plan, but the characters just insisted upon happening?  HOWIE!  That’s all I can say.  He was NEVER, EVER supposed to have the role he did.  He was supposed to be the shoulder for Resa to cry on and the ear for AJ to listen too.  Now, he’s become part of the twist that’s in this story and I can’t get rid of him.  Maybe that’s why.  He didn’t want me focusing all my love on AJ, lmao!

Is there anything you wanted to do in the story, that the characters refused to do?   You mean  besides make it short?  Honestly, yes.  AJ and Kris were not supposed to have that huge night together.  As was Howie.  Nick seems to be making his voice heard too.  He’s not letting me keep him quiet!
Is the story turning out to be longer or shorter than you had planned?  WWWAAAYYY Longer!  I mean, it was supposed to have depth and details, yes.  But there’s so many things that were never supposed to be in there and they keep doing.  It’s like, I just don’t get a say so.  That’s why they run this story!

What annoys you most about each character, if anything?  This is a long list.  Let’s start with AJ: He’s not open.  He has that whole tell it as it is deal and yet he can’t be honest with those he loves.  He’s stringing along two women and is in endanger of ruining a friendship and yet, he’s not saying anything!
Kris: She’s just a two timer, LMAO!  Just kidding.  She’s not strong enough to go after what her heart wants!
Howie: The fact that he loves his so called best friend (resa) and yet it’s “not his place to say anything” so he would rather her get strung along than step up.
Resa: For being a fool.  She knows something is up, yet she’s still just going along with the flow.  She knows she’s going to get hurt and yet she does nothing about it.

Which character gives you the most difficulty?  Oh that’s a tough question.  And I think that boils down between AJ and D for very different reasons.  AJ has the whole complex.  To Kris, he’s Alex; to Resa, he’s AJ.  And at times, it’s hard not to let the other woman see the true him .  But then again, that’s AJ, NOT ME!  Howie because he’s sorta being an ass in ways that I’m not used to see him.  It’s hard to make him move in on a chick that he knows his best friend loves.

So…just as an FYI..I hope some of those answers really make you want to read.  It’s different, I can admit that!Ok...that's all I got for now...but I'll think of more!
