I'm at that stage where I've just about got the first draft done and I'm working on the last chapter, and while there is no more story to tell after that point, I'm just not happy with the last chapter. Obviously it needs work as it's not had the same time and attention other chapters have had, but even after letting it have a rest of about a week and looking over it with fresh eyes, I'm just not happy with it, and while it does end things and show the aftermath and people returning to their lives, it somehow seems to lack something I just can't put my finger on.
I'm just wondering what people have had to do with their own final chapter to know it's a good ending and be happy that that is indeed good.
On a slightly different but related note, if you were writing a book that is part of a trilogy and this is not the full proper ending, has anyone had problems finding what the end to the first and second books should be?
