EVERY fiction book I write has a different ending than I anticipated (i.e. plotted). And usually it is MUCH better.
On my newest book, Arms of Deliverance, (coming out in July) the ending is THE BEST. I can say that because I was praying about it and God plopped it in my head.
I immediately pointed to the sky. "God, You are TOO COOL!" It still brings a smile to my face thinking about it.

Cool quote. I'm copying it for my quote file.
That is a beautiful quote!
Hi Tricia...I linked over here from Camy's blog. :)
My first audience is myself. If writing a story is tedious work, can reading it be much easier?
