Clare survived her dental surgery, but she hasn’t had the best week dealing with pain. In other bad news, she had a Book Funnel glitch. In good news, her zooming in to a book club was a smash hit! In random news, she’s been on a shoe buying spree. She loves shoes.
TB finished her London novella days ahead of her editing deadline. She also completed the first draft of season three of Girl Love Happens, but something isn’t right with the story, so she’s parking it for a few weeks to let it marinate. To celebrate the completion of the London novella, TB is taking a few days off, and her main goal is to do absolutely nothing.
The duo moves on to endings. TB admits she struggles with them, while Clare doesn’t have any problem closing the door on a story. They discuss the different types of endings and stress how important it is to know your genre to avoid disappointing readers who expect certain outcomes. The discussion proves TB doesn’t know her circles from loops, and Clare doesn’t know her prologues from epilogues. Even though she uses the wrong word, Clare shares how to have a perfect ending in a romance.
