KitMuse, #WritersCoffeeClub 21. Do you agree with Rose Tremain, who says you shouldn't plan a book's ending; it must be earned?
The quote sounds strange and I'm not familiar with it, so I'm going to go with other people's interpretations and say that if you have a planned ending and the story needs you to adjust it -- do so. Clinging needlessly to an outline will only lead to frustration and stress.
I don't like the "earned" language here.
