And their story is done…
I published book four of Bull’s Eye on May 4, 2020. I just published the final book last night, November 26, 2020. For those counting, that’s 204 days between the books. This is exactly what I was worried about when I started publishing the series before I’d finished the ending, but I was honestly hoping the pressure of publication would help me write faster. Ha!
As I wrote in my last post, endings are hard. They’re even harder when I’m trying to end a longer series like this with a cast of characters who I’ve grown with. Anyone who’s read a few of my books (or followed this blog) knows that I’m a romantic at heart, and as unconventional as this story may be for most of my readers, at its core, this is a romance. And romances live and die by their endings.
Without spoiling anything, I should clarify one thing. This is an ending, not the final ending. Not all loose ends are tied up. Not all story lines have the most satisfying of conclusions. Life is messy that way, even in this fictional world. But it’s the ending for now. What happens next is in the minds of you, the reader (and, I suppose, my muse and whether inspiration strikes next).
Enjoy, everyone, and I hope you had a wonderful day of thanks, wherever you’re from.
