Because of the suggestions from CiCi and Jack Kelly's Lady, I've decided to write a sequel/continuation called "Aftermath". It will probably just be four or five chapters, but it will tell Jack, Racetrack, David, and Spot's stories from after the strike to 1909. The prologue and first chapter are already written and should be posted soon.
Shout-outs:
sparkhiggins: Thanks for the review! I agree that Racetrack probably would have had some financial problems because of all his gambling...although it was sad that he committed suicide because of them...
Southern Spell: Thanks for the review! It's definitely sad that the other three newsies died, but they had a tough life and people had a much shorter life expectancy at the turn of the century.
Jack Kelly's Lady: I hadn't planned on continuing this story originally, but as you can see, I am writing more!
CiCi: Thanks for the idea for a sequel! Hope you enjoy it!
Thumbsucker Snitch: Thanks for the review! I know that it was pretty short...that's the problem with writing things during one class period and not spending much time revising. I'm going to try to make the chapters in "Aftermath" longer and more detailed.
