Addendum

You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write. I read that somewhere. I also read that there is nothing to writing. You just have to sit at a typewriter and bleed. Hemingway said the latter.
There was no 9Gag then, unfortunately. No cat pics and videos. No free video streaming. No high speed connectivity to the most banal content you can conceive, consume and create.  
In the midst of all that,  I came to two realizations.
I get that sometimes your favourite character must die. And that sometimes you must be the one to kill it.
