At the end of a movie or story, a character is shown to have written a book related to the experiences in the movie, usually after they settle down and have their happy ending. If it happens at the end of a book, the implication is that you have just read that book; sometimes it's stated a lot more bluntly. Sometimes the first thing they write is the first thing you read: the passage becomes literal Bookends. This is usually a straight out invocation of Direct Line to the Author, with the implication that anything that doesn't quite make sense was due to the main character forgetting things, being mistaken, guessing wrong about events that they didn't personally witness, or lying for the sake of practicality. A more recent variation more common in film and television is to end with a film or television series being produced about the events. Many times the ending itself will switch from "reality" to the film under production before the camera pulls back to reveal the set and crew. Often this will involve self-mockery, the story being Recycled In Space or another increase in weirdness. May be responded to with Who Would Want to Watch Us?. If the title of the created work is also the title of the work, see Metafictional Title. Compare with Narrator All Along and Tagalong Chronicler. Write What You Know and Write Who You Know occur when an author draws general inspiration from their experiences or people in their lives. Also see Writing About Your Crime. It's for a Book is when writing becomes an excuse for dubious interests. Don't confuse with Wrote the Book, as there they may not have literally written a book. |

Played with in the most recent Thursday Next book: the Thursday Next books as they exist in Thursday's world evidently bear little resemblance to the events as we read them, and Thursday is very unhappy with the way she is portrayed. To make things more complicated, as Thursday can travel into novels, she ends up meeting versions of herself as she appears within the books. However, at the end, the books are being rewritten and it is strongly implied that these new editions are the series we know. | |

At the end of A Macabre Myth of a Moth-Man, Nina tells Moth-man how she's written the whole adventure they were on down in her diary. Moth-man recommends she hold on to it, in case she ever wants to turn it into a book. To account for how his chapters are in first person, he also suggests she switch to first person for him, so he seems more like a private eye from some detective noir film. | |

In the fourth book of the Inda series, it's revealed that Fox is writing a book about Inda and his own experiences with Inda. That book becomes important to the plot of Banner of the Damned, sequel to the Inda series and set in the same world but 400 years later. Whether Fox's memoir actually is the Inda series is uncertain. | |

Dragon Age II opens with Varric having already written The Tale of the Champion about Hawke's adventures in Kirkwall. Unfortunately for him, he couldn't resist embellishing things somewhat, so the rest of the game takes place in flashback as Cassandra grills him on what really happened. The fallout from that results in him having a ringside seat for the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition; the credits of the Trespasser DLC reveal that he went on to write a book about the Inquisitor titled All This Shit is Weird. | |

The Stinger for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots suggests that Otacon will be doing something like this about Snake's life. Moreover, the stinger is implied to be a Framing Device for the Metal Gear video games, making them Otacon's story about Snake. |

In Kore wa Koi no Hanashi, this is suggested in the beginning. Oogaki thinks that Haruka's presence around Shinichi could result in a love story with a large age-gap and tells Shinichi, that he should write such a story. Shinichi begins to write the romance novel, though he insists at times that the concept is similar and not about their own age-gap. | |

Tales Series: In the credits of Tales of Vesperia, art is shown of Estelle writing a book; when she closes it, the cover pretty clearly has "Tales of Vesperia" on it, though it's written in the game's made-up runic language. Whether the book is a straight-up adaptation of the game or some kind of children's story about Brave Vesperia's romps and adventures is up for debate. Tales of Asteria: In the game's finale, Orie decides to compile the events of the game into a book as a gift to Tirug, and requests the protagonists of each arc help summarise. She names the book "Tales of Asteria". |

Subverted in Avenue Q. Princeton thinks he's finally discovered his purpose in life when he sees a kid fresh out of college just like he once was: put together everything he's learned about struggling through life after college and make a Broadway show out of it. The recent grad flips him off and leaves, and everyone else thinks it's a bad idea too. | |

In The Umbrella Coup, Pierre Richard's character only realizes that he has been involved in a mafia Mob War at the end of the movie, when his partner (an undercover policewoman) spells it out for him (throughout the movie, he thinks he has been hired by a movie studio for some method acting). He then decides that the story would make for a great movie. Cut to the epilogue — he is now a celebrated film director at Cannes with Money to Burn. | |

In the credits of Tales of Vesperia, art is shown of Estelle writing a book; when she closes it, the cover pretty clearly has "Tales of Vesperia" on it, though it's written in the game's made-up runic language. Whether the book is a straight-up adaptation of the game or some kind of children's story about Brave Vesperia's romps and adventures is up for debate. | |

Actually a major plot point in Investi-Gator: The Case of the Big Crime. Roxy the secretary makes "like a billion dollars," according to the narration, writing books about Investi-Gator based directly on the court records she writes for his cases. This actually kickstarts the plot. Salmon Salmon and Red Herring set up a conspiracy to secretly help Investi-Gator because they love his books, and that leads to a whole lot of trouble. | |

If you stayed on good terms with Martin Summers through Hotel Dusk: Room 215, he sends Kyle a letter explaining he's going to write a new novel based off of him. Kyle isn't much of a reader and Summers isn't much of a writer, so his reaction is less than enthusiastic. He apparently decides to go for it later in life, as the novel Summers writes turns out as the In-Game Novel version of Last Window. | |

Interestingly enough, said book is a sequel, being preceded by the book "Lost Memory", which was based on vague recollections of his past which in turn put him on the path to becoming a Kamen Rider. | |

Mr. Small, an entry in Roger Hargreaves' Mr. Men series, depicts Mr. Small attempting to hold down a variety of jobs. He eventually meets an author who writes children's books; after hearing Mr. Small describe his adventures, he decides to write a book about them. It is explicitly stated that the reader has just read the book in question. | |

At the end of Jodie Picoult's Vanishing Acts, the Unlucky Childhood Friend and journalist character reveals towards the end that he has been writing - surprise! - a book about this entire event. However, there's the fact that the book was written in first-person, revolving between the four main characters, so this means that the guy was obsessing over the thoughts of the girl he's been in love with since he was a kid. Romantic or Squicky? | |

At the end of Things Fall Apart, one of the Evil White Colonialists is writing a book called something like "The Pacification of the Tribes of the Lower River Niger." Bit of a subversion, in that he imagines that the incident he has just witnessed - Okonkwo's suicide - might make up a good chapter of padding, or a paragraph at least. | |

Turnabout Storm: In a variation mixed with Shout-Out, Twilight suggests Apple Bloom to write a book about the strange incident she claims to have gone through in the Everfree Forest. In a straight example, the credits and the "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue start off with the cover of a novel based on the events of the series written by Apple Bloom herself, titled Turnabout Storm. |

Adult Will then reveals that she just wrote a book about their adventures as Magical Girls. In the short stories published during the New Power Saga alongside the main saga, Will got roped into writing the subject of a musical. She wrote a musical version of the first arc. |

The film version of On the Road ends with Sal Paradise, quite appropriately, typing out his experiences on a long scroll. It's mostly appropriate, except that the real-life Jack Kerouac didn't finish the novel for years later, causing many of his fans to believe he was still a twentysomething adventurer, when in reality he was a middle-aged alcoholic suffering from chronic depression. | |

Chapter 191 of Kaguya-sama: Love Is War spin-off series We Want to Talk About Kaguya has Ishigami giving Karen the idea for a series where two characters engage in a Duel of Seduction based on a conversation he had with Shirogane back in Chapter 162 of the main series. She immediately gets to work on something that she titles Kaguya-sama Wants to be Confessed To and comments that it's a good enough idea to win the Shogakukan Manga Award. This is actually a bit of Ascended Fanon, as Karen being the in-universe author of the series had been a popular fan theory ever since the reveal early on that she drew Real-Person Fics about Kaguya and Shirogane. | |

The final episode of Arthur has Arthur accidentally check out a guide to drawing animals at the library, and despite his hesitation, an old man (an Ink-Suit Actor of franchise creator Marc Brown) convinces him to keep it. The final scene flashes twenty years into the future, where Arthur has written an autobiographical graphic novel because he likes drawing animals so much. The first chapter of the book follows the story of the cartoon's first episode, "Arthur's Eyes" (which was adapted from one of the first Arthur books). | |

The endings of both the anime and the manga versions of Chrono Crusade feature this in the end, although in two separate ways. In the manga, there's some brief quotations from Azmaria's memoir about her adventures with Chrono and Rosette. In the anime, Joshua is shown working on a storybook about "a boy that goes on an adventure with his sister and a demon to see the astraline!" referring to Rosette and Chrono. However, the horns damaged his mind so much that those are the only memories he seems to have of the two of them. | |

In Scream 2, Courteney Cox's character has written a book about the first movie, which has been made into a movie, Stab. By Scream 3, she's written a book about the second movie, which has been made into a movie. Scream 3 follows the production of a third, obviously fictionalised Stab featuring the original characters. No doubt Gail wrote a book about it. (Scream 4 however shows that protagonist sued to prevent a movie adapting the Troubled Production that was Stab 3; the series went on anyway, with increasingly weird directions) | |

Kamen Rider: Maya, from Kamen Rider Dragon Knight actually does this, selling the story of the Kamen Riders as a children's novel at the end of the series. Kamen Rider Build ends with the protagonist Sento having written his adventures as Kamen Rider Build into a set of scripts (49 of them, to be precise) and planning on selling it to a production company. It helps that the defeat of the Big Bad left Sento and The Lancer Banjou in a new world where the events of the series never happened, meaning nobody would realize that the story is based on real events. Touma Kamiyama from Kamen Rider Saber writes a book called "Eternal Story" based on his experiences during the series, beginning from him becoming the eponymous Rider, which is published by the end of the show. Interestingly enough, said book is a sequel, being preceded by the book "Lost Memory", which was based on vague recollections of his past which in turn put him on the path to becoming a Kamen Rider. |

At the end of Paper Mario 64, one NPC says that he's written a book about Mario's quest, entitled Paper Mario. You can actually see the book in Luigi's Mansion, where the ghost Neville can be observed reading a novel entitled "Mario Story", the Japanese name for Paper Mario. Likewise, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has Mario's adventures being turned into a play performed by one of his teammates, Flurrie, and a former enemy, Doopliss. The game also features a collection of books describing Luigi's adventures (with some facts being exaggerated to make Luigi look cooler). After beating the game, Luigi agrees to hire his publisher to make a book about Mario's adventure. |

Girl Genius is written by Phil Foglio and his wife Kaja, also known in-story as Professors Foglio and Foglio of Transylvania Polygnostic University, who wrote the comic as textbooks for their "True Events in the Life of Agatha Heterodyne 101" class. They subsequently came to our world and published them here, to escape notice by the people they were writing about. So far in-story, Kaja has been seen as an announcer at the Vienna Opera, and Phil is an itinerant storyteller and the great-great-grandson of the Jager Oggie. The illustrated versions of the Girl Genius radio plays also feature the Foglios, performing the radio plays and then having to escape after being tracked down by Agatha. The idea of writing down the various adventures of the characters is referenced (and title-dropped) by Bangladesh DuPree. Apparently, the Foglios were on a separate task for the university when they encountered Agatha, and Kaja, who had not yet picked a research subject, decided to become her biographer. |

The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck: Every issue starts with a panel of someone (revealed to be Scrooge's sister Matilda) putting together a scrap-book out of letters, news-paper clippings and photos that are relevant to the issue at hand. In the pen-ultimate chapter Scrooge makes his greatest failure and falls out with his family, and in that one the scrapbook is closed, with the author leaving it in a huff. The final chapter starts with an extended Citizen Kane inspired news reel instead.The later written midquels that told side-stories from in and around Life and Time, the story would often start with The Triplets leafing through the scrap-book, finding one inconsistency or another, inspiring Scrooge to tell them the story. | |

In Tegami Bachi: Letter Bee, Vincent Alcott is a down-in-the-dumps writer we meet in the first season who wanted desperately to be a great writer is an utter failure. Then in Letter Bee Reverse (season 2), during the final battle against Cabernet, he's scribbling in a notebook. It's later revealed that dear old Vincent wrote about it and got famous. | |

Space Quest III also ends with the Two Guys from Andromeda ending up at Sierra's studio and they end up making a game, presumably the Space Quest series. No ending-reversal here, though, since the Two Guys aren't the main characters. In fact, Roger rejects the offer and goes back to Xenon. The next game starts with Roger on his way back. | |

Pokémon: In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Elite Four member Shauntal (already an established author) is in the middle of writing a novel about the events of the previous game; when you come to challenge her, she is brainstorming a passage about a trainer who fits N's description and whatever Legendary Pokemon he owns in the current game (either Reshiram or Zekrom) It should be noted, N defeated the Elite Four, including her, in the first game. Sonia of Pokémon Sword and Shield wrote a book about the events of the story, which you can read a passage of in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. It also has the added benefit of telling that the Two Heroes of Galar were really legendary Pokemon, not humans as was rewritten by history. |

Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor. Throughout the book there are references to pulpy holothrillers with names like "Luke Skywalker and the Dragons of Tatooine", and at the end we find that the character who researched and wrote up something about the Mindor incident sold it to one of the holothriller companies for an absurd sum of cash. Luke's not happy about this, but grudgingly gives in and insists on some rewrites. It doesn't matter if the holothrillers liked it as it was, he can be very persuasive. | |

Final Fantasy: Zigzagged in Final Fantasy Tactics. Orlan Durai didn't say that he wanted to write a book about Ramza's brave struggle against Ultima and her cult, neither there's a sequence showing him do so. But the book, the Durai Papers, is written anyway— in fact the entire game is about Alazlam Durai storytelling it to you the player. The ambiguously-Distant Finale of Final Fantasy XVI features a book chronicling the game's events titled Final Fantasy, authored by Joshua Rosfield. |

The Twice Upon an Age series plays with the fact that Varric Tethras writes books about the events in the Dragon Age games. In these stories, he's the editor instead, with the fic author collaborating with him on the project. One of the side volumes, Agents Acquired, fills the trope more literally - he gets a letter from Sera with a suggestion and decides that "we" should write a story about her suggestion, except that by "we" he really means the fic author. | |

In Rainbow Brite and the War of Darkness, it's shown that Brian told his father about his adventures in Rainbow Land. This ultimately led to a short-lived cult classic cartoon and a film (AKA, the canon Rainbow Brite cartoon and film). The show was unauthorized and most of it was inaccurate fluff aimed at kids.

The My-HiME fanfic, Elementary My Dear Natsuki. Inverted. Natsuki didn't set out to write a story, just to set down the events of "The Adventure of the Reigate Squire" on paper to keep them straight in her head, only to find out that it reads much like her favorite detective stories. After some teasing from Shizuru, Natsuki submitted it to The Strand and found that not only did they publish it, they also paid well for it and asked for more. She comes to suspect that Shizuru had been hoping for just such an outcome. | |

The Book of Lost Things has this near the end. It states that the book you're reading is the one the character wrote. It then gets confusing because things happen in the end that doesn't happen until after he wrote it and published. So you're reading things in his book that the character says he wrote but couldn't have despite actually happening. Well, he obviously didn't have Protection From Supernatural Editors. |

This happens frequently in Californication, in ways that relate to the ongoing story arcs and with the implication that most of Hank Moody's novels come from this trope. The main example is "Fucking and Punching", a novel that Hank writes during season 1 about his experience with Mia, which Mia subsequently steals and publishes under her own name, creating an ongoing conflict for much of the show. | |

Legacy is an important theme throughout Hamilton, and so the finale, "Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story" shows the two surviving Schuyler sisters, Eliza and Angelica, trying to preserve the story and legacy of George Washington, soldiers like Hercules Mulligan and John Laurens, and most importantly, Hamilton himself, after their respective deaths. The song ends with Eliza wondering if she's done enough to tell her husband's story — then the fourth wall drops, and Eliza sees the scores of people who have come out to see Hamilton's story. It's an emotionally charged moment, for sure. | |

Cry of Fear plays this for horror. The events of the game are a book Simon has been writing as a therapeutic exercise on the suggestion of his therapist, who wants him to recover from his depression without the use of medication. It backfires horribly, exacerbating Simon's mental issues to the point that, depending on the ending, he either kills himself while taking his friend Sophie and/or his therapist with him, or he accidentally kills a pair of cops because he suffered a psychotic episode as they came to perform a welfare check on him. Side-modes suggest the book even becomes a low-key Eldritch Abomination that's capable of dragging other people into Simon's nightmare. | |

The Outsiders ends with the protagonist being assigned to write five pages about his own life and asking "Can it be longer?". The final line of the book is Ponyboy writing the first line of the book. One wonders as to how the teacher felt about grading a 180-page novel. Plus, the fact the author wrote it BECAUSE she saw something at school and said (paraphase), "I should write a book about this!" |

Over ninety-five years later, her great-granddaughter publishes them as a book...only for a man, just like the one from the diary, to come to the book signing. Lots of fans theorise that the Peter Cushing Dalek movies were written by Ian and Barbara based on their own experiences.

At the end of Leisure Suit Larry 3: Passionate Patti in Pursuit of the Pulsating Pectorals, Larry and Patti screw over the fabric of their fictional reality, wind up at the set of Sierra studios, and receive a lucrative offer from Roberta Williams to code adventure games about their adventures. Al Lowe had to skip an entire installment in the series to undo this ending. Space Quest III also ends with the Two Guys from Andromeda ending up at Sierra's studio and they end up making a game, presumably the Space Quest series. No ending-reversal here, though, since the Two Guys aren't the main characters. In fact, Roger rejects the offer and goes back to Xenon. The next game starts with Roger on his way back. |

Coupled with the way the narration goes (the first book alone includes lines like “Her actual words would probably burn this page� and “He also said several other things, but I had better not put them on paper�), it gives the implication that Nine eventually did turn her adventures into books. | |

In These Happy Golden Years by Laura Ingalls Wilder, Laura's older sister Mary, visiting home after enrolling in a school for the blind, confides to Laura that she's planning to write a book about her experience. She then observes that she'd once thought she'd become a schoolteacher before she went blind and now Laura is doing that for her, so maybe Laura will write the book - a suggestion which Laura finds hilarious. | |

A spoof: there was a series of one-shots in which Goofy is a historical or famous literary character. As Ulysses (in his adventure with the Cyclops), he ends the story by saying the trope name. Mickey (as Diomedes) then points out that he is illiterate. Goofy then says he'll just get himself a ghost writer, turns to a crewman and goes "Right, Homeros?". | |

In The Darkside Detective, one case requires the protagonist and his sidekick to rummage in the precinct house's evidence locker, which also contains several personal items various detectives have stashed in there for safe-keeping. The sidekick discovers and comments unfavorably on a set of notes for a comedic video game about a pair of police officers who solve spooky mysteries, with the protagonist's embarrassed reaction suggesting that they're his. | |

Pretty Cure: While Yui's dream to write fairy tales for children is no secret since the beginning of Go! Princess Pretty Cure, she eventually realizes that's what she really wants to do. And sure enough, in the Distant Finale, The Princess and the Key of Dreams based on the Pretty Cure's story is shown to be as popular as Haruka's old favorite book. In Hirogaru Sky! Pretty Cure, Mashiro decides that she'll be writing a picture book about her adventures as Pretty Cure alongside her friends, and the final ending involves her drawing about the flows of the main story. |

Mark Frost's The List of 7 has an similar example. The novel centers around a young Arthur Conan Doyle becoming embroiled in a conspiracy against Queen Victoria, during which he is befriended by a dashing, yet mysterious (and potentially unstable) detective named Jack Sparks. At the end of the novel, he learns that Sparks had apparently died in battle with his hated brother, and chooses to immortalize Sparks by writing a series of novels about him renaming Sparks' character as "Sherlock Holmes". | |

In the How I Met Your Mother episode "Brunch", where Ted, after hearing his parents' less-than-impressive story of how they met ("I think it was in a bar"), declares that when he's older, he's gonna make sure to tell his kids the full story of how he met their mother. Fast forward twenty-four years to 2030, and he does, although as far as we know he never published it. There's also the movie with the show, The Wedding Bride, which was written by Tony who ran away with Ted's intended bride, Stella. Since Tony actually got Ted his teaching job out of guilt for the incident, we can surmise the film is highly fictionalized since the character, Jed Mosely is extremely abusive. |

During the end credits of the final episode of Babylon 5, it is revealed that the entire series was a documentary featuring the history-changing events that occurred on the station. It showed a huge group photo of the actual production team, and ended with the entire run of the main cast's pictures and actor names. This makes the credits avoid Breaking the Fourth Wall and instead say "this Minbari actually existed in the future and played Delenn". | |

The classic book Interview with the Vampire (and the movie too, I would guess) is an interview done by a guy with a vampire. It is implied that Louis (the vampire) destroyed the record afterwards, but in the next book n the series (The Vampire Lestat) the book has been published to the world. Then Lestat himself took over that custom and started writing his adventures, with each successive book referencing the former one. | |
