This is a chain story I'm doing on Lisiharrison.net.....I am writing Elizabeth's part. I will post who is writing the other girls as soon as I find out. Here is the beginning that I wrote. I'll add to it as it grows, since it is a chain story. :)
Okay....here is the credit of authors.
Me.....Elizabeth
Alyssa.....Vienna
Cori......Nikki
Elizabeth:
Elizabeth Hunter stepped off the stuffy, old yellow bus in anticipation. She breathed in the thick, humid summer air of South Carolina and sighed with contempt and she took in the familiar surroundings of Camp Arrowhead, the summer camp she’d been attending for seven years, since she was six years old. Camp Arrowhead was her true home. Back in California, her best friend, Anna, had moved away and her parents had just finalized their divorce. She was ready to forget about everything and have a great summer.
“Lizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!” shrieked a familiar voice. Elizabeth jumped, startled and then grinned at the sight of her best camp friend, Vienna. The slender, tanned girl rushed towards Elizabeth, her caramel brown hair spewing out behind her as she made her way through hordes of campers.
“Hey!” Elizabeth exclaimed, wrapping her friend in a hug.
“Oh my gosh,” were Vienna’s first words. “What the heck did you do to your hair? It’s so, so dark!”
Elizabeth laughed, fingering her armpit length locks, which were a mousy brown, instead of their usual sandy blond color. “I dyed it,” she said simply. “For an audition.”
Vienna rolled her eyes. “You are way too into your acting stuff, Liz.”
Elizabeth rolled her eyes. She loved that Vienna didn’t treat her like a superstar, even though she was one of the regulars on Nickelodeon’s hit show, All’s Fair In Love, War, And Junior High. “We all have our things,” she giggled, referring to Vienna’s unhealthy obsessions with soccer and junk food, two things that did not go well together. “So, what’s new?” Vienna asked as the two girls made their way down the shady path towards Bunk 4C, their bunk since forever. But a shrill voice interrupted their conversation.
“Vienna!” cried a girl who’s most distinct feature was the reddish tresses that hung out of her high pony as she waved to Vienna and ran towards the two girls.
“Nikki!” exclaimed Vienna, hugging the newcomer. “You’re here!”
“I’m here!” Nikki cried and they hugged again.
“Liz,” Vienna said with a grin. “This is Nikki. We were best friends before she moved away in fifth grade. I emailed her and told her about camp, and she signed up! Nikki, this is Elizabeth.”
“Her best camp friend,” Elizabeth added hastily, smoothing down her white Hollister babydoll.
“Hi,” Nikki chirped excitedly. “Omigosh, Vienna, I have got to tell you what happened on the plane. And, come on, show me your cabin!”
With that, the two girls ran off, leaving Elizabeth standing in the dust, her white Vans slip-ons gathering dirt.
Vienna:
Vienna and Nikki burst through the door of Vienna’s cabin in a fit of hysterics.
“Ok, ok, ok, let me get this straight,” Vienna giggled, “The guy behind you in the plane ACTUALLY asked you if you had a boyfriend?”
“Yeah, he seriously did! It was soooo hilarious! But he was like, eleven! I swear! I was like, ‘Sorry, but I do!’ I think he started crying!” Nikki laughed. The two girls started laughing again. The wiped the tears from each others eyes and finally calmed down enough to look around them. Vienna inhaled the inviting scent of pine and wet wood.
“Home sweet home!” she sighed.
“Elizabeth seems nice,” Nikki ventured, “but she looks familiar. Where do I know her from?”
Vienna slightly rolled her eyes. “She’s from that show on Nick, All’s Fair in Love and War, and Junior High,” she said casually. Nikki’s eyes widened.
“No way!!! She’s a star? That’s so awesome! You have to tell me about her!” Nikki jumped on Vienna’s bunk and layed on her stomach. She propped her head up on her fists and let her feet kick her back side. Vienna sat beside her.
“There’s really nothing to tell. She’s way nice, and she’s my BCF,” Vienna paused, “Best Camp Friend.”
“I got that part,” Nikki giggled, “but I wanna know that gossip! Seriously! Ok, did she really date Chace Murphey then dump him two hours later? Did she actually dump soy sauce on his head because he was talking about his sick mother?” Nikki asked, intrigued.
“Absolutely not!” Vienna snapped. “Elizabeth would ne-ver do that! You can’t listen to gossip like that.”
“Oh,” Nikki said, sounding slightly disappointed, “Okay. Well, I’m gonna go back to my cabin and unpack. Maybe I’ll catch up with you later?”
“Sure!” Vienna smiled. “We can sit together at dinner!”
“Ok, just make sure you invite Elizabeth! Cuz I’d really like to get to know her. See ya!” Nikki said, skipping out of Vienna’s cabin.
Vienna pulled her cap over her head and sighed. Sometimes being friends with a star was a real pain.
Nikki:
It was dinnertime. Nikki walked in and looked for Vienna. She saw Elizabeth first though and started walking over to her. “HeyElizabeth! Have you seen Vienna?” Nikki asked.
“Uhh yeah, she had to change. You know how Vienna is with her clothes.” Elizabeth laughed.
“I know! She wears like five outfits a day.” The two girls laughed. “I have to ask you a question about your show, but you probably don’t want to hear it because you’re on a break.”
Nikki wanted to ask Elizabeth about all the rumors she heard.
“It’s okay. I’m used to it. That is why I love Vienna so much because she treats me like a normal human being.” Elizabeth was a normal kid and Nikki had to remember that.
“Yeah, Vienna’s a great friend. Omigod, I love your shirt! Where did you get it?” Nikki looked at what Elizabeth was eating and felt sick.
“Thanks, I got it from Tyler Lyson for my birthday.” Nikki saw Vienna walk in, but she turned away.
“No way! Is it true about him and Lauren Brooks?” Elizabeth laughed. “No, he said he would rather date a monkey then her.” The two girls were practically on the floor laughing.
“Hey guys! What is so funny?” Vienna came and asked. “Oh, nothing it was a had to be there moment.” Elizabeth told Vienna.
“Oh, okay!” Vienna said with a smile, but Nikki could see the sadness that she was left out in her eyes.

nice!
keeep on writing, i love reading your stuff.
all other stories i see on like lisiharrison.net are just rip-offs of the clique. but yours are actually original.
even though this is a chain story, the writing style is really consistent throughout. and thank you for actually caring about grammar, i can't bear to read a lot of other stories because the grammar is so bad.
keep it up!
