ENDING OF THE STORY
Decide how the ending relates both to the
story as a whole and to its beginning. Does the
ending resolve the plot and bring closure to
the crisis of the character?
ENDING OF THE STORY
The Beginning - This is the first part of the story. It is
where the writer catches the attention of the reader,
either with a good opening sentence, a descriptive
character or setting description, or a glance into the
story's subject, issue, or theme. The reader's mood is also
set in the beginning; If it's going to be enjoyable and
exciting, sad or boring. An interesting beginning would
make you want to read more.
ENDING OF THE STORY
The Middle - This is where the story's bulk lies. It
presents the subject, provides important key
information, and keeps the attention of the reader,
but most importantly, it is where we achieve the
story’s turning point. The reader will start thinking
about how the story will end if the middle one is
successful.
ENDING OF THE STORY
 The Ending - This serves as the conclusion and solution to the
conflict. This is where the story comes to an end where the
character learns a lesson or comes to deal with the events of
what happened. This is where how the ending relates both to
the story as a whole and to its beginning. It usually resolves the
plot and bring closure to the crisis of the characters A good
ending will keep the reader thinking the story all over again
and leaves the reader feeling great and satisfied.
