Are there books with fade-outs, like in pop songs? Get to the end of the
book, repeat the main theme with improvisation and then the print fades
until you can't read it anymore. "Alternatively", you could end a book like a
punk song with a bunch of random letter and crash boom sounds in writing,
that don't have anything to do with the rest of the book.

This would be great. Why? |

the printing just stops, a couple of blank pages and a pencil attached to the book? |

Much as I like [(mans)]' and [nrm]'s contributions, I love the
original idea itself. I plan to try it with my next best-
selling novel, which will appear on shelves as a studio
version and in a limited-edition live version as well (the
live version features an extended solo and special
crescendo ending). |

Gravity's Rainbow ends abruptly (and with a song). The Lord of Ring books end with a coda wherein the Imperial March is repeated in a faded out version. |

It also sounds like Flowers for Algernon. |

+ Your best idea since you stopped smoking cigs! |

It should end in smaller and smaller font. Or perhaps
the letters should become fractalized, with the
continuation of the story becoming smaller and
smaller bits of the edge of the font letters. |
