We Carry On

by VapingVixenXOXO

What if life in Atlanta was normal? Rick Grimes didn't know where life would go nor was he the only one. Soon the lives of he, his wife, son, and partner intersect with those of other colorful residents of Georgia. An AU where infection doesn't occur, where the everyday struggles, joys, lives, and danger can be just as intense as the end of the world. A revision of Life Goes On.

Hello again everybody. As you may know me, I have previously gone by the username Beachbunnyluvsu. But just to be clear, I have made the decision to make some major changes to my stories, thus giving me the idea to reinvent my username. I would now like to introduce myself as VapingVixenXOXO. As well as reintroduce you all to me as a writer and this story.

As you may know and/or if you don't know, I had a story up by the title of Life Goes On. The entire plot behind it was that it was an AU (alternate universe) where the infection never takes place, and all of the characters in the show are instead living their normal lives in Georgia. The plot was good, characters and OCs were good, but I didn't have much thought or direction before I began posting chapters. And it all turned into a great big mess that I tried so desperately to clean up because I wanted it to work. But sadly it didn't. However, the good news is that it has potential and I will do everything in my power to make this possible. So I chose to delete the previous story Life Goes On and rename it as We Carry On, a major reference to the song "We Carry On". I have changed a great deal since I first began writing, so I'm trying to clean up some errors in my stories as well as myself as a person, by growing along with my stories and their success. They are a reflection of myself, so I have been doing major revisions to all of them as well as juggle the responsibilities of having a job and going to school.

I would like to thank each and every one of you for sticking through this with me. I'm a procrastinator, yet a perfectionist who can't help but feel the need to fix any mistake I see. I have just received my acceptance letter into nursing school as an LPN, so I've been extremely busy and exhausted. I miss writing and will get back to updating more regularly now that I have a more clear direction on where I wish to take this story. The original characters will be in it as well as some OCs I created - and it's a strong possibility some of those OCs may not make the cut since managing a lot of characters may take away focus from my story and the more important characters. But anyway, I'll be updating soon. Goodbye for now!
