I just wanted to shout out a huge thank you to Pam for my book, Under the Covers – the Christmas anthology, which I chose because it just made sense since I’m in a holiday mood already! Many thanks again, and I’m looking forward to reading it!

Sue A–I think, as authors, it really can be “that simple”. Of course, it depends how invested everyone is in the story. Then again, that’s why I write fiction!
Thanks for commenting!

I just caught Atonement on TV and I knew going in it would be a sad and poignant story, but the ending was so depressing and really bittersweet. I didn’t know how to feel at the end. The leads never get their happily there after, but on the other hand there’s a twist to the story telling where the woman (the heroine’s younger sister, now a famous author) recounting their story decides to change the ending. As an author is it really that simple?

Hi, Deidre! 50 First Dates–I’d forgotten about that one. The ending choked me up too. Of course, being the eternal optimist, i kept hoping Drew Barrymore’s character would somehow miraculously recover. I guess that would be one movie I would have written differently.

It’s not a recent watch, but I’ve always loved the ending of 50 First Dates. It chokes me up every time.

Hi, Jane–I agree, Roman Holiday had a bittersweet ending. I remember being sort of disappointed with the third Pirates of the Caribbean movie–maybe it was due to the ending.
Thanks for stopping by!

I definitely expected a happier ending for the third Pirates of the Caribbean movie. I loved the ending from Roman Holiday even though it was bittersweet.

Hi, Little Lamb Lost! Four Weddings and a Funeral–you know, I always meant to see that one and for some reason just never got around to it. Now I will for sure check it out!
Thanks!
