Life is unpredictable for many people, but not me. I knew from the very start I would twist that very doorknob in my hand right now, and leave.

Here's the last paragraph for Two Shadows:

Her tears streaked cold lines across her cheeks, and splattered in crystalline droplets across the page she held in her hands. Drawn in black pen, was an illustration of Ash. In elegant letters below it was signed by Leroko. And Ash looked like he always had before-- beatufiul, inhuman, catlike. Only now, there was a cruel glint in his ember-orange eyes, that were drawn in fire colored ink. And what stuck out most of all, was the fact that beneath him two shadows were cast. Only now, both of them were black.

The last sentence:

Only now, both of them were black.

Oh I had know idea! I just thought of a book I read in school about a flame in a big storm.

This is actually the last three lines of my story The Art of Lies:

Gryffin Bayne accomplished something almost everyone wishes to do—he had died with a smile on his face. He had accomplished something none of the other Shades had ever dreamed of. Gryffin Bayne was born to lie, but he died telling the truth.

Thanks :D And the ending I have planned for that one is sad... I'm probably going to start writing that series of stories after I finish my NaNoNovel.



message 64: by [deleted user] (new)

I think the end of my second book will be:

He whispered, "I love you."

I know, I know, not very original and sorta boring, but i haven't even finished the first book so whatever xD

This one's iffy, but here's a possible last line for Iris... it's actually more than one, but it wouldn't really make since otherwise:

"Never seen anything like you, girl. What's your name?"

She smiled into the shadow of her hood and said, very softly;

"Iris. Iris Rose."

Thanks :] I have two different ideas that I want the ending to be for the story, and that's the last line that goes with one of them.

All of these are undecided, but still:

Blood Moon: And as he walked, off in the distance he heard a single eerie sound; a lone wolf's howl.

Of The Fallen: She tilted her head back, glancing upwards towards the shadowy night embracing the fact that she was one of the fallen.

message 79: by Sella (last edited Dec 31, 2009 06:49PM) (new)

Sella Malin | 3094 comments I'm deciding if I want each last line in the three books of the Outcast trilogy to end with their title, or not. If they do, I'll have to change them up a bunch ...

Oh, and I can't decide between these two last lines for Life in D Minor:

I let myself get lost.

and

The note lingers in my mind, long after it is gone.

Both are metaphorical and, at the same time, literal ... idk.

I like the second one... It's somehow seems like the kind of last ending that leaves you staring at the page for five minutes thinking about it.


message 81: by [deleted user] (new)

2nd one

I disagree with Kriss and Justyn, actually … Sella, I like the first one better. They're both awesome but I think the first one is less of a cliché; it's intriguing and concise and grabs my attention more. The second one is nice, but … I don't know. I feel like I've read books before that had last sentences like that. You know what I mean?

Well, I think that the 2nd one is better, since, what Kriss said, it leaves you looking at the page for like 5 to 1 minutes where the other one is just plain and it says more that theres going to be a second book. If there is a second book, go with the 1st one, and if there is not another book, go with the 2nd one. Now, that I think about it, I like the idea of another book. LOLZ


message 86: by Sella (new)

Sella Malin | 3094 comments Why does the first one have to do with a cliffhanger for a second book? It's not literally meaning that the MC gets lost ...


message 87: by [deleted user] (new)

Well, I think it is more of a cliffhanger then ending


message 88: by Krys (new)

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
I actually kinda thinks it depends on what goes along with the rest of the sentence. Both of good potential.

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
It also depends on what you're going for … whether you're going for something that's just like BOOM! DEPRESSING! or something that's more sad but still hopeful … which I guess either of them could be. But the first one seems like it's more of a stress on the depressing aspect while the second is more of a stress on the hopeful aspect. O_o Uhh … Does that make sense?


message 90: by Ellen (new)

Ellen (ellenpenleysmith) I think they are both good options, but I think it depends on the sentences before that so we get what vibe you're giving. Kind of what Brigid is saying... I think?

Brigid, I'm writing a new story and u helped me with my last cover I was wondering if u could help me with a cover for the new book, Shadows. (the name is in process)

I agree with Kriss. The second one leaves me thinking about it.


message 94: by Sella (new)

Sella Malin | 3094 comments I'm choosing the second one. I think it fits way more with the theme of the story. :) Thanks for your opinions.

Krys (krisslee) | 5015 comments Mod
Oooh... Here's an idea for one I've got for Shadow Heart:

The body fell limply to the ground like a marionette doll with all of its strings severed, eyes dazed and staring glassily, unbelievingly upward as though she could not believe death had come. Jaz stood over her, eyes ringed-black outside of the irises. Soulless. Dead. While, all the while Ash stood a little distance away, his pale shape illuminated by the setting sun behind him. He waited, as Jasmine turned around, a strange and sharp look on her now overly-beautiful features. She stepped forward, taking his cold hand into hers. With fingers intertwined they walked into the rising night, leaving the changing world that they used to know behind them.
