: Re: 1st person story, but the main character will die in the end and some of the story needs to be told after his death. How to solve this problem? I personally like to read stories told by

I know it's two years later, but in case others have the same question...

Just end it. Write in the first person, try and tie up any loose ends before the death. Then, BANG, your narrator is dead. Last page. Last sentence. Bang. The narrator never gets to finish the book.

With this, you can get creative. Discuss chest pains, numbness in the left arm, nausea, all signs of a heart attack, and then the last sentence of the book ends mid-sentence signifying that your narrator died before they could finish the book.
