no, yes, maybe you decide its your book Ive read many books where there was a prologue and no epilogue and an epilogue but no prologue.try it both ways and see what you like best. that's what i do and my stories turn out great. if its your story nobody can tell you how to write it if you like it without an epilogue than have it that way. its probably a great story with or without one so go for what you think is best and don't worry it will be good. good luck and i hope it turns out great.

it is your tale, you may write it even although you go with. There are no longer any set regulations for such issues. particularly, the only regulations are for spelling, grammar and format. although in case you'll be going returned and forth between First individual and 0.33 individual that's advisable to be careful. make constructive that the reader won't have any issues in any respect following alongside with the story line. attempt to no longer contradict your self regarding information and time strains. in case you intend on having your novel printed while it quite is finished, you will desire to make specific you have somebody else proofread it for you. i'm no longer in basic terms speaking spelling and grammar, however the story as an entire. a great style of cases what might make experience to you, will thoroughly throw off your aim audience. i'm not sure how difficulty-free it's going to be to discover a writer prepared to sell a unique that skips returned and forth between Fist and 0.33 individual. As a everyday rule in writing, maximum instructors and Authors might suggestion you to %. a annoying and follow it, in any different case the final pass can become uneven and complicated to study.

No, you should include only what fits your story and nothing more. Don't force yourself to write anything that you feel isn't essential to the story.

Usually, yes, but it's not necessary. You're the author and it's your choice.
