I don't really believe in closure. That's something that writers talk about or people wished that they had.

The book doesn't end when you finish writing it.

I sort of don't believe in closure. In the sense that it doesn't make me feel better to think that something is over.

With a mini series you can give the story a proper sense of pacing, a proper sense of closure.

I started thinking about the endings of novels not because I think endings are so important, but because I think they're actually not as important as they're sometimes given credit for.

Books have this function that help me to understand the work I've done, to wrap it up. Once it's done, fortunately, it doesn't mean there's closure.

I don't believe you ever get closure on anything. Things leave a permanent mark on you.

I'm not interested in closure. Some people just have heart attacks and die, right? There's no closure.

The nice thing about a series is you can end on cliffhangers all the time. You can be like, 'You know what? Here we go, this person just died, end of book.' And with the end of the series, you're very conscious of all the plotlines that were left hanging. There's a balance there to wrap those up but still leave it exciting.

I don't want closure, I don't know what that means or why you would want it.
