Endings

Endings

Is it a sign of age that I have forgotten how some of my stories end – I mean the ones that I have already written?
A friend of mine just posted one from a few years back, so I re-read it, suddenly remembering the research I had put into the piece. I had spent hours trying to get facts right and then determine how it would tie in with specific memories of my own. And although I often wince at the immaturity of my writing, and often comment to myself that the story really needs professional help – especially when it comes to punctuation – I was most surprised to read the ending. I had forgotten what was coming. 


I just love a good ending, even if I had authored it …
