If you know you\u2019re working toward something that you think works, you\u2019ll get there, somehow, no matter how awful it is struggling with what\u2019s going on in the middle. It\u2019s much harder to bring a book to fruition when you have a very good sound beginning that then peters out into nothing. Books stand or fall really on their endings.
