The Inkwell presents: Parting Words

This month, we chose to take inspiration from those that started us down this path -- other writers. And though we could have gone with any element of another's work, we decided on that which hits us hardest, leaves us wanting more, or simply provides a satisfying conclusion. Yes, you guessed it, that final line, that closing sentence, the proverbial 'End'.

Ghosts at the Door - Some provide guidance for the most unusual of visitors
Maybe - Is the path less taken the path worth taking?
Melody to Obsession - Seeking the source of a song may be harder than one might think
A Mother - An ode to she who deserves more praise than we can ever give
Retrieval - For this hunter, the job might just be the death of him
Reconvergence - A simple act of sabotage and misdirection goes awry
Ferrying the Fey Cats - Do your research before entering any home
This is not an Exit - Time does not heal all wounds, and forgiveness is tough
Harmony - Every ending is a beginning, and stories come from somewhere
Arcadia Vias Peregrinentur - Pain does not need to be borne alone
Mischief Night - A prank goes downhill when the victim doesn't find it funny
