Nikki and Boone: Before I Get A Chance

Nikki Mosley crashed on the island jaded from a previous experience with an abusive boyfriend Jayce, only to be rescued from drowning by Boone Carlysle. Since then, their friendship has grown into an on and off relationship marked by more downs than ups.

One of their finer moments, however, came in Chapter 11, when Sawyer demanded Nikki kiss him in exchange for Shannon's inhalers that he claimed to have. Nikki agreed, but Boone was not going to let his opportunity with Nikki pass him by...

The Other Teens

One of the more interesting story lines, and one of the most fun to write, in AWNTS is the never-ending drama that surrounds the life of the teenagers in New Otherton. Despite their varying opinions of living on the island and the ever-increasing dangers they face, they're still normal kids, with ridiculous amounts of romantic, parent, and life drama. Add in one leader that some would trust with their life, and others wouldn't, you've got a recipe for trouble. But in all this, there's one thing they know they can count on- each other.

Lyrics from Amy Macdonald's "Youth of Today."

Never Trust An "O"

An Other, that is.

Seventeen year old Mia Prince learned that lesson the hard way in Chapter 12. A loner, she pushed away most of the fuselage camp. However, Mia came to trust Goodwin Stanhope. Unfortunately for her, Ben's spy had gone rogue, and used her to get the children of the camp, as well as Claire, away to a spot where he could kidnap them. When Mia helped to free Chris Donegan, she soon learned what happens when you put trust the wrong person...

The Forthcoming Chapter...

So for all of you, I'm starting with a bit of a preview/spoiler for the upcoming chapter.

Iris Palmer hasn't been a main character since the beginning. She emerged from the survivors rather notably, after an unexpected encounter with a very naked Sawyer on the beach. At 25, she's been travelling the world for several years. She got on Flight 815, expecting to grab a connecting flight to Honolulu from LAX, once again avoiding going back home.  But why- or because of whom- has she been avoiding going home?  

The answers next time on AWNTS...

Hey everyone!

So school has kicked into full gear, unfortunately giving me little time for writing. There's an upcoming chapter for AWNTS coming, I promise! It's all planned out, just requires time to sit and actually write!

I decided to create this blog after seeing the remarkable work that Elyad has put together on her's. All credit for this idea goes to her. For me, it gives me a bit of a creative outlet to keep the story going while I'm on school induced hiatus. But it also gives you a chance to get recapped, get some spoilers, and see your characters come to life.

Most of the characters were submitted to me without an actor, so I'm adding actors as I imagine them. If you have a particular one, feel free to comment here, or message back on FF.net.

Wishing you all happy writing!

Best wishes
