RE: The Beginning and End -- Deserving Prerogatives

Very good point. As a literature professor, I can't agree with you more. Opening lines can be overrated. Closing lines certainly carry a big chunk of readers' final reactions, partly because of what you mention about closure. Yet, some horribly closed stories can still linger in our minds because of what was in the middle. Looking forward to reading more about this.

Wow! This means a lot to me, that someone of your calibre and experience agrees with this. I have updated and extended the post so you should probably give it another read.

Thanks for stopping by.

Sure, I will. My pleasure.
