Is including an apology in my book a good idea
I've written a novel series that I'm attempting to get published. And well, I included a character like a person who I had a falling out with a while back, and well, I'm kinda taking this chance to tell this friend that I will still be their friend, regardless.
Bad idea, or good?

No, it's a bad idea. If you wish to mend fences with a former friend, the least you can do is talk to them about it face to face. Inserting that into a book would be an insult.
My opinion is that you should make contact with this former friend and arrange to have lunch, drinks, coffee, dinner or something social and take that opportunity to explain your feelings. That way, at the end of the meeting, you should know whether or not it's possible to mend the fence and move forward with this person or whether the chance for that to happen is behind you. Putting it in a book seems...juvenile, and I'm not trying to offend you.
Good luck,
Jada

My husband hates it when I use examples of our life in my writing. This makes writing a bit difficult since the majority of my life is spent in his company and things happen that I want to write about. Occasionally I’ll write about it anyway and think, “to hell with his grumbling!” as I carefully edit out any reference to his existence. But it’s awkward at best.

no. there are disclaimers saying that none of the characters are made to resemble anyone living or dead in the front of the book. its standard issue. just thell this person, "hey, we can still be friends".

You should try it. Maybe you should just tell your friend that you are sorry.
