About [apt]
Our channel name "Add Placeholder Text" honors the ‘unknowns' in the early stages of writing a book. While we have many ideas, we are also aware of major gaps in our story and our characters. Names, traits, and even plot points are often placeholders that may look very different in the finished product. We also hope that our skills as writers will follow a similar path. Like our story ideas, our writing skills start out raw and tentative, filled with 'placeholder' ideas that we will fill in as we learn. We invite you to join us on this journey as we turn our placeholders into a skillful story worthy of a New York Times bestseller!

Whenever a good story reaches its denouement, the intended feeling isn't always of satisfaction. It's really what the writer wishes to share with their readers. One story I can think of that is actually a children's story of which the ending stuck with me is The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. The end is...bittersweet, especially to a young reader, but it makes a point, I believe, that is good.

[ND] I love The Phantom Tollbooth! It was one of my favorite books as a kid, and I still go back and reread it every couple years. It definitely is a bittersweet ending and also one that, as you said, brings out a good message. Our aim is for our book to be a little more grounded in reality than that one 😂, but if we can have a real-world lesson in the ending like Norton Juster did, I think that's a noble goal.
