The End

Hi there and welcome to The Imaginarium of Janet and Janikka. :D

So here I go, approaching the final chapters of OPL and I'm quite lost as to how I will wrap it up. There are a lot of things I needed to justify and the funny part is, these realizations only came to me as I was approaching the end. In short, I never planned for this to happen but here I am. Sort of like a lame excuse a teenager gives to her parents about not planning to get pregnant but it happened. That sort of thing. 

When I first started OPL, I never foresee the end. I was a pantser and I still am. You know, that incredible art of writing whatever comes into my mind without worrying about the pros and cons of the scenes I created. The bottomline is, I enjoyed every minute of my pantser life. LOL

But now, I can't just give the story a lousy ending to a sort of complicated relationship between two people who wasted more than a decade to finally admit they love each other. There has to be a major revelation and that is what I am still thinking about. 

It's easier to say that the end will justify all the hero's lousy behavior and will get the sympathy of most of my readers when they would finally realize why he had to hurt the heroine and yet he tells her he loves her. I don't know either but I am planning to figure everything out. 

I already drafted the ending scene, on how the heroine will finally come to her senses and accept the hero's love but I have to think of a more satisfying ending to their story. I guess I needed to do more research and drink more coffee to get my brain working. 

So there. Bottomline? I'm lost. Come and find me.
