Okay, we've got one for the first sentence, so I thought I'd ask about the last sentence.

Wow, that's really powerful.

I'm not exactly sure what mine is going to be but I should get cracking since I'm gonna need it in about 10K... I'm thinking something like...

"And they went their separate ways."

Y'know? Really cheesy and corny and somehow meaningful.

I'm a bit like Junaberry. I'm not exactly sure but maybe something like this.

Scott stood by the Angel Gate and took Deacan's hand, as hard as he tried, he could no longer feel the hatred.

(Deacan is the guy who killed his girlfriend.)

I'm gonna cheat and post the last two sentences:

Quote:
But those are stories for another time. For now, suffice it to say that Michelle never found better friends than the trio from Covered Bridge Estates, and that without Michelle, the trio might never have made it to their senior year in high school.

I haven't even come close to finishing, but my last sentence was one of the first things I thought of ironically. Anyways, here it is:

And so, Queen Callia's last command was heeded.

Not exactly a work of art, but anything after 50k is beautiful...

"Where the hell are my pants?"

Which is also the first sentence in my novel.

Hm, finished my NaNo last night and came up with a very corny last line..

When I died, however many years from now, I would be proud and I would be happy and I would be loved.

Adriana watched the last tree fall, and was happy to know that in generations to come, the forest would become a place for those of all talents to be in.

*I'm on the editing stage now, and it will probably change...*

Okay, so mine doesn't make sense without the rest of the paragraph, but here it is in all its cheesy glory......

It goes something like:

"Claire turned and walked away from the shocked faces of Anne Hawke and Kenny Seater, waiting until they couldn't see her face to smile. She didn't need them. She could do this on her own."

But of course she can't, or I have no room for any sort of sequel. ^_^

I am also going to cheat and post the last paragraph. it is not from my nano novel.

Both the horses stopped at the same time and Jeff grabbed her by the waist, swinging her down from Stone's back. Jeff and Tori's lips met in a loving embrace. At that moment, Tori Mason knew that everything was going to be alright.

:) That is, until the new kid moves in in the sequal.

here is the one from my nano novel... even though I havnt finished it yet, i know the ending paragraph.
"Just take care of her, Darnell. I cant take any more of this today." Alexa slumped against the tree.

Darnell walked to the little girl, who swung blond curls over her shoulder. "Look, I'm sorry, but we cant have anyone around here right now."

"My name is [insert name here]. I'm human, and I want you to train me to become a planter." The little girl's blue eyes twinkled.

The group of Rebels raised thier heads, and stared in amazement. Serafina stood up, crossing her arms over her chest.

"No."

Hehe, great.

Mine is:

I think there is not an “old” Laura Suite, or a “new” Laura Suite – just an ever-changing Laura Suite, with a name that is not glued to a certain moment or a certain time.
And who knows what this Laura Suite will do.

Well, I really like the last lines of two of my in-progress novellas that are my spring/summer projects. They all both sort of cheesy, but they ring nicely for me and I am pretty proud of them, though not nessecarily of the novels in which they close. Both novellas are in shambles at the moment and I can't wait to edit them.P.S: They might be more than one sentance.

Novella 1) Backstory: Okay, so my protagonist, Abby, had been infected with a deadly disease that is marked by the milky-violet film that settles over the iris. She's been cured of the disease and it's been three months since she was released from the hospital and she's been feeling really dizzy and not so great lately, so she goes to the washroom to calm down.

"When she saw, when she finally saw her explanation, she had to shove her fist agianst her mouth to keep from screaming. There, over her vivid green irises, was a thin film of violet."

Unfortuantly, I have no ideas for a sequel, so all is pretty muh lost with this one.

Novella 2) This one is about an epidemic of a disease (I have a thing about disease) called "The Number" that has infected the Earth and are possesing people who are infected to kill themselves or kill others. Molly, a blind girl, and her brother, Gregory, have survived the epidemic and are now standing in the rain as the rest of the survivors look down on the destruction. Molly has been having this weird feeling about the epidemic and she can't place a finger on what it is and that's where the sentance starts.

"And then she knew. She knew like she had never known before."

I have a thing about cliffies as well. I love all the other ending lines on this thread. They're all so good!
