Endings

Read Job 40-42

Job 42:12 "So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses."

Endings need to be memorable. It’s the last impression the reader has.

If it’s an article, one way to end is with a circle back to the beginning. We might start an anecdote in the beginning and bring it to a close at the end.

If it’s fiction, we can still reflect back on the beginning in many ways. Happy ending or unhappy ending, we want to show the protagonist’s life beyond the story.
