Bibliophile asked Marie Sexton:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Marie Sexton First... I need to fix my GR settings, because it never tells me when somebody leaves a question! I just happened to check in and see this.

Anyway....

I'm not 100% sure about this, to be honest. I've thought about it a lot, but the answer seems to vary from day to day. (The good news is, that kind of waffling often ends up in a sequel, so we'll see.)

At the moment, I see Cody ending up in the restaurant industry. I figure he starts out washing dishes, like he did in Warren, but works his way up to cooking, and maybe even ends up taking some classes. I see him cooking dinner at home a lot, really learning to explore and trust himself. Especially after growing up hungry, I imagine he'd see some kind of real magic in food, and its preparation, and being able to create things for Nate.

Nate... he's harder to pin down. Maybe he ends up in computers. Maybe he ends up doing something like journalism, after seeing how hard it was to find reliable information in Wyoming. Maybe he goes into teaching, or social work. I'm not sure.

I'll keep dreaming up endings for them until I find the one that feels right. :-)

Thanks for the question, and I'm so glad you enjoyed Trailer Trash!
