Muscly Fingers make for Strong Writing: Exercise

Unconventional writing exercise again. So, you have a story that you just finished? Seems pretty awesome to have written the end at the end of some writing. Now, you don't know what to do? I bet as I sometimes wonder, if there is a chance that this story can have a sequel. This exercise will have you write a snippet about the main characters of your story a decade in the future. By doing this you can see where a character ends up. You get to scope out how their relationships with other characters get fleshed out and why. And you can pursue the concept of conflict after the major conflict has already happened. If there is a possibility of conflict, then perhaps you can pursue a story afterwards. Ten years is a long time.
