The Book Choices Novels & Stories

They think it will reach people who are in the middle of their own difficult love stories and help them understand that choosing someone through difficulty is possible. I tell Dominic the news. "We're publishing the book about 'always,'" I tell him. "We're putting out into the world what it means to choose someone for decades." "Always?" he asks. "That's the working title," I say. "Always. That's the entire point of the book. Always choosing. Always loving. Always building." He pulls me into a hug. "That's perfect," he says. "That's exactly what the book is about." Over the next several months, the publisher works with me on the final edits.

Hello everyone! I hope you have all been well. I wanted to check in to see how you all feel about this novel. I have been feeling the need to go through and rewrite this book. New storyline will possibly be written, but the characters will remain the same. So... What do you all think? Would you all like a new rewrite of The Chosen, or would you all prefer that I leave it the same? -Tegan

The chair remained. The book remained. But they felt different now. No longer like sacred artifacts. Just memories. Treasured memories. The kind people keep not because they must. Because they want to. The book slowly closed itself. Not dramatically. Not permanently. Gently. Like the final page of a beloved story. Ama watched it happen. Then something unexpected occurred. The cover changed. The title The Last Choice faded. Silver letters dissolved into light. New words slowly appeared. Arthur noticed first. “The title changed.”
