Spring has arrived and it's a universal merriment in the air, a general love-making that seems to take hold of everything and everyone. I adore watching this extraordinary explosion of life, it fuels my joie de vivre. I have been writing lately on a historical romance, I have recently passed the 10 000 word barrier and I decided I should push my heroine to a much needed closure. I considered killing her, for I adore terminating my characters :))), but I have been advised to proceed with a lot of cautiousness when it comes to romance. So I am now contemplating the idea of a happy ending, which I find disgustingly predictable, yet I thought I would sneak in some wicked turn of events that would diminish the "all is good" idea and put it into a much more realistic perspective.
Is happy ending that mandatory, people?
