Abstract
This presentation focuses on a creative and critical response to the plot of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby. I reimagined the novel’s ending in a short story I wrote titled “One in the Same.” I also reflected on my creative decisions in a critical essay titled “The Fated Goal of Gatsby.” My presentation argues that the alternative ending to The Great Gatsby in my short story is a worthwhile alternative because of how the novel itself structures Gatsby’s desire for Daisy.
