final chapter of Selena City

[miriam_e]

Not sure about this. It was the second thing I mapped out when I came up with the story more than a year ago. In writing this today from those old notes I found a lot of things had changed, though mostly it flowed pretty-much as I'd originally intended. My initial wish was to have the ending paragraphs as I've written them here, but I'm finding it hard to get perspective. Does it work? Or is the end stupid? Is the whole final chapter a mistake? I have no idea.

There were a couple of other things I wanted to put in, but they got squeezed out... oh well... maybe they'll make it into the rewrites.

I'm exhausted. I should have spent a couple of days on this instead of pushing it all into today. Doesn't bode well for next NaNo. [gulp]

Anyway... this final chapter:

Let me know what you think.

I wonder if I'm going to put the rest of the story online, since it takes so long and people aren't really reading anyway. Maybe some day. But I could send you the file of the novel I have on my computer if you'd like it!

I've been writing short stories and novels and poems and songs and whatever else my entire life. I wonder what inspired me to write so young. It was probably the combination of my being an incredibly independent and private person likely to be alone and my very active imagination. I always had many friends in my head.
