I love the idea of the ratings system and the awards. Also the idea of a forum.

I am writing a fic about ATWT. I am not as talented as KR or Josh or Dusty and the others but it has been fun.

In my fanfic,Life in Oakdale, I have Nancy a victim of a scam artist who preys on senior citizens. Margo will investigate. Tom will be going though a mid life crisis where he wil feel old. He decides to do something about it. There is a new chief of detectives by the name of Greg Logan. I have selected AMC's John Callahan for that part. Adam is home. He is the general manager at WOAK. Maddie is an intern there and Adam is attracted to his brother Casey's girlfriend. He knows that she is too young for him and should be off limits because of Casey.

Will and Gwen are finding their way back to each other but they will have to deal with Jade who says Will is the father of her baby and that Gwen pushed her down and made her fall.

Dallas is really the father of the baby. We learned he lost his job in Chicago because of anger management issues.

Lily has developed a psychic sense about her. She knew Jade would be hurt but she didn't realize that Jade is really her niece.Luke is tutoring Kevin to keep him from flunking out of school. Kevin doesn't understand why the fact that Luke is seeing a guy bothers him. Lucy is upset that Dusty,Barbara,Lucinda and Carly banded together to keep her daddy Craig in prison. Lucy takes a turn toward being a chip off the old "block"

Brian McColl is back in town and has resumed an affair with Barbara. We learn that he is being blackmailed by James Stenbeck and he has a bigger agenda then using Brian to get revenge on Barbara. Brian has become Lisa's business manager and she will figure in this story.

Shades of Days of Our Lives but Katie has been trying to get pregnant by being inseminated with Mike's "matter". She learns the donor really was Simon whoo left town after doing the deed with the help of a crooked tech.

Emily has given birth to a baby girl but because of fear that Paul will take her away has told him that the baby died. The baby is with her grandmother Ellen Stewart who lives in Atlanta. Ellen is going to do something soon that is so out of character for her to do.

Carly and Jack are in Switzerland because of Rosanna. They will be off canvas for a while but will return soon.

Henry is still around and will become involved in a new businees venture soon.

Whew,I didn't realize I had all that going on!

Since everyone else seems to be trying to get their stories out there, i will join in as well!

On halloween, yesterday, a major cliff hanger occured, where many of the citizen's of Port Charles's lives hang in the balance.

Coming up, The Spencers will have to deal with Laura's return home and her catching up with her family. The Quartermaine's are going to have to deal with Emily reconnecting with Nikolas, but also Monica and Alan will still remain at odds about Rae, even though he sacraficed himself to save Monica. Edward and Audrey will remain close, but her secret involvement with Kristin and the baby swap years ago could threaten that relationship. Alexis will continue her search for her real mother and step sister. Amy will know that Alexis is her sister but will she reveal the truth? Also Alexis's mother is someone already on the canvas, the only question is who will it be? Also Kyle Radcliffe is back in town, but still dealing with the revelation that he is bisexual/gay. He is not really sure if he still has feelings for Maxie, or if he is falling in love with her cousin, Lucas! There is a whole bunch more coming up so hopefully this will recruit more readers!

Cool. If you're ever curious to check out clips of the show, there are some on youtube. You should also check out Nicholas's Santa Barbara Page. It's in French & English & there are some clips of the show through the years. One of my favorite storyline climaxes, Adventures in Aqualand, is posted pretty much in its entirety. It involves Eden running from Kirk Cranston (then-Robert Newman!) and eventually being thrown in a shark tank. Good stuff.

As for some previews of the show, I'm not giving away much........yet. But since we're giving out some tidbits here, I'll throw a couple out there right now:

--- The first week mainly leads up to the wedding of Ted Capwell & Lily Blake. Lily being Gina's sister & Ted being a Capwell, the marriage has implications for many in their families, and Angela Cassidy and Rafe Castillo, who may or may not want Lily & Ted for themselves. There WILL be a wedding, but I'm not saying who gets married.

--- A major character from the past will return to the canvas. No announcement as to who (no hints either).

--- Cruz & Eden's storyline will kick off....... of sorts. It's going to start off one way and then go in a completely different direction. The first part of the story is more about Cruz, where the second part will focus on Eden. I have a whole year of torture planned for the two of them, sort of an homage to the old days. The story will unfold into an umbrella story that will encompass much of the cast.

--- I have lots of plans for Samantha. Heather Lindell was cast for a reason. Just imagine Mason's deviousness mixed with Julia's smarts.

--- Keith, who will be as smarmy and mean as ever, will also be more callous and more of a cad with Tuc Watkins in the part. Though I love Justin Deas, this is going to be a different interpretation of the character & he'll be used in some ways that Justin's Keith may not have been.

I'm pretty anxious to get it going, since I have certain stories mapped out, I'm anxious to get them to where I want to take them.

    • I am a couple days behind, but is it just me or do some of the glimpses of Martin's nightmare look like a police traffic stop?  
    • IIRC, there was fan outcry when viewers realized Donna was going to be killed, although someone more in the know might have a better idea. Donna was always more popular with viewers than she probably should have been, which I credit Stuart for. I do agree she would have been easier to write out than Felicia or Rachel.  Cass and Donna dated briefly during the Malone run (late 1997). http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/cassd.html AW should have invested much more in Quinn than they did. All the pieces were in place for her to, at the very least, have a steady build in importance the way Jessica did on ATWT at that time. AW had moved away from usual patterns by bringing Henrietta and Quinn into the show to diversify the canvas. What always bothers me is the comment an AW person gave to SOD after fan complaints over Quinn's death - essentially, they did not know Quinn had any fans. Says it all.
    • I like that the Martin story hasn't been frequent.  The nightmares are airing only periodically.  Each time, we viewers see more of the accident or whatever happened.  I think we might (or at least I might) be annoyed if we saw the nightmares too often.  At this point, I've become more curious, and so, when it's finally revealed, I think the timing will be just right.
    • Total agreement.  But wasn't AW wonderful with all those servants?  Louise, Brooks, Rocky, Karl (never seen), Beatrice, Helga, Sven, Vivian, etc.  None of the post-Lemay servants ever seemed to resonate, nor did any of them last very long.  I do think BTG would benefit from casting at least one servant for Anita and Vernon.  And perhaps another for Nicole and Ted.  The show needs more have-nots for the different perspective.   
    • Interesting, I didn't know the origins of their "friendship." Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Linda Dano or Felicia, but maybe the show would have been better off if they killed off Felicia instead of Quinn and built around her. Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't OLTL & ATWT pretty white at that time? Of all the stuff they threw at walls during that time to see what stuck, appealing to Black viewers seemed like a no-brainer. Especially since NBC had success at that time in Primetime with The Cosby Show & 227. Even in the mornings with Bryant Gumbel on Today. Of course, didn't have to be an either/or. I didn't mean to convey that Donna's isolation was the reason. Rachel, Felicia & Donna were all rich, 50ish brunettes whose characters started bleeding together by that point. Granted, mostly due to the bad writing of the writers she hired. Of the 3, getting rid of Donna would have been by far the easiest as VW had the most longevity/caused the biggest uproar; and Dano was the face of the show to the industry (and her favorite of the bunch). Thanks for the info of the alcoholism story. It was right before I started watching so I've only seen the clips of the intervention. Don't remember Cass & Donna at all. Was it last year of the show before he got with Lila? I was mostly checked out at that point.

    • Phillip/Harley made more sense as friends (as they were portrayed to be during the Pam Long era).. and I could even buy them being a short-term couple.. but end game they were not. Didn't GA say he thought it out of character that he would choose Harley over Beth.. or that he would leave Beth/Lizzie back in AZ in order for him to chase a vendetta?  I know that when Beth Chamberlain came back as Beth in late 1997, she was told instantly that the writing would be slanted toward Phillip/Harley.. which surprised her as well. When the Lorelei story came up, it actually made all of her out there/out of character behavior Beth displayed from 1997/1998 through the early/mid 00s make sense.  I liked that the final months of the show, Beth became more like Beth of old so at least the show ended on a positive for her character.
