The Secret Power of Epilogues: How One Final Chapter Could Transform Your Book Forever

The Secret Power of Epilogues: How One Final Chapter Could Transform Your Book Forever

You know you’ve seen it at the end of a book, but what does it mean? What is an epilogue actually? Why not just call it, “Last Chapter”? And if you’re a writer, should you end your book with an epilogue?

What is an Epilogue

When I was working on my book, Crowdsourcing Paris, I had a decision to make. It was a make or break choice, and if I chose wrong, I could easily ruin my book.

My dilemma? How I would write the ending.

Should I write an epilogue? An afterword? Or just write “The End” after the last chapter?

It was a tough decision, and I hope I chose right. The good news is that readers seem to love the ending and the reviews have been incredibly positive (4.2 of 5.0 stars on Amazon currently).
