"Great Story! I love how you had the guts to write this!" -ksommers

"I love the story! Amazing." -HimeShian

"I love the way you've portrayed her character and in pretty good detail. I seriously love this fanfic so much." -TakingOverTheWorld

"This is such an awesome story." -Fanfictionlover400

"I'm glad there is a fanfic for Dawn. She is a really misunderstood character." -Leeloveszombies01

This is a fan fiction following The Walking Dead's Dawn Lerner, who was played by the incredible Christine Woods. She was an amazingly misunderstood, complex, and deep character with an interesting backstory that the show didn't fully explore. I get into her backstory AND her thought process during the events on the show. Enjoy!

I'm also proud to announce that this was the FIRST Dawn Lerner fanfic on WattPad!

I can sense that you will discover yourself, you will learn new things and live life on the edge. Don't loose faith in her, what you find may not be what you seek." ~•~ Carl's world crashed down around him when he picked up the letter covered in black ink and broken promises.

After all, he would gamble with his life if she held the cards. One long journey and one million possible problems. But after everything he has gone through, will he find what he was looking for? ~•~ "That's what they say about soulmates, that their hearts beat together. Carl knew that if her heart stopped beating, his would too." ~•~ Completed : 17th April 2016 - Forever Alone, Forever Unfinished, Forever Broken - *Warning* ~ Contains violence~ All the characters are of the Walking Dead cast and a few of my own.

A Life Worth Living | Daryl's daughter by lonely_dreamer2
33 parts Ongoing
Nell has lost everyone she ever loved. She witnessed her little brother getting tore to shreds right in front of her eyes. And to make things worse, she is alone. At this point, Nell would prefer to get eaten alive by brain-munchers. There's no point in life if she isn't even living- she's just surviving. When the last bit of canned food runs out, it forces Nell to leave her house, but she finds herself in some trouble with a brain-muncher and wakes up in a... farmhouse? Nell knows to never trust anyone, it's what her dad always told her. Before her dad died, Nell had a very strange relationship with him. He was abusive- both physically and emotionally. Nell always thought that was normal. It's normal for dads to get angry and lash out. It's normal to be punished for trying to speak... right? When she meets the group taking shelter at the farmhouse, will she run away? Is her need for a true family stronger than her loyalty to her abusive father? Or will a certain guy with a crossbow and a boy in a sheriff hat show her that life is worth living? • • • Amazing book cover by @tbr_tales !! Daryl's daughter/Carl's lover/Found family The story does not completely follow the plot of The Walking Dead. The plot line strays away from the show at times due to Nell's interference. Tw: Physical abuse, attempted suicide, gore. I do NOT own any of the walking dead characters except for Nell, Ollie, and a bunch of others that may be in the story that aren't from twd. #1 in darylsdaughter 09/01/23 #1 in daryldixondaughter 09/01/23 #1 in abraham 09/05/23 #1 in carlgrimes 4/11/24 #2 in glennrhee 09/20/23 #1 in Alexandria 09/26/23 #2 in twdfanfic 10/04/23 #1 in hershelgreene 11/9/23 #1 in thewalkingdeadfanfic 3/30/24
