Birthdays ...

Hey, I finally finished your book... (episode 36) I loved it!

The ending though... WHAT DID HE DO?
Did he kill himself, did he go the macho way? Or do I just have to wonder for the rest of my life?

Well - it's one of those questions ... every narrative in my head seems to have a life of its own. Sometimes it feels like possession. I have a story stuck in my head right now ... not sure what to do. But I have started writing again. The new job is going ok, and ok is pretty damn good.

You can imagine the ending any number of ways - suicide seems like one choice, but maybe he figures out a way to get out of there ... perhaps there's another story ...

Perhaps. : )

I think it makes sense, sometimes, to leave something open - especially when it's a short story or novella.

Yea, I agree with you. Leave it to the reader to make what he/she will of the ending. Thanks for sharing Episode 36 with me.

Did you read the PDF or off of AMAZON?
