Hi, Nis,
Thanks for posting. I’m pleased that you’re a fan.
I wrote “Jake” to see if I could, to see if it would translate to my (at the time) Y/A audience.
Agreed — life is beautiful. But I couldn’t give THE GREAT GATSBY a happy ending, now, could I?
The result? Adults liked it a lot; kids, meaning my reguar audience, not so much.
