Opps1 – Ch.11 – Pg.27
Sincerely: And that’s it. That’s the end of the book. It’s not the end of the story tho, because this entire book was originally supposed to be one chapter at the beginning of the next book to establish what “normal” is before they go into space and I fucked it up and wrote 300 pages that I’m really, really proud of.
I wasn’t sure when I was writing it whether I liked how it ended but I’ve decided that the ruins of Jack and Sara’s relationship and the ruins of Ben Montiel’s hotel room really were the perfect place to put a pin in it.
Now all that’s left is the epilogue… and the second half of the story.
>entire book was originally supposed to be one chapter
One of the finest examples of Scope Creep I have seen in a long time :}
No kidding, hahaha! Probably one of the few examples of scope creep that wasn’t a result of write-as-you-go, too. I remember giving Sincerely a hard time about passing 30 pages in some chapters, but now that I’m doing more writing I struggle to keep it under 40! It’s hard 😛
