Many stories on here have a happy ending, almost all of the stories that have been written over the centuries do end with "Happliy Ever After". But, my mind works differently. I don't write about princesses or princes. I don't enjoy cliche happy endings, unless it's quite twisted. But, sometimes, you do need a happy ending. And sometimes, it's the exact opposite. 

In my characters, I take parts of me and my experiences and thoughts, and turn them into a piece of writing. I want my readers to feel what my main characters are feeling. I want them to relate, and make sense of the plot. If they see themselves in my characters, then I've just completed my goal.
