An Extra Chapter?

I sometimes wonder whether Jane Austen had any extra chapters that she decided to omit from her novels. Perhaps all authors have something to add?

I am thinking of writing an “extra chapter” for one of my novels. I have quite a compact writing style, so in my book “Sophie’s Salvation” there is a swift transition in the last chapter to the final scene in Bath Abbey. I keep composing the extra chapter in my head, so I really should write it down!

Is there anyone out there who has extra/missing chapters? Perhaps there is a book to be made out of that?
