Resolution

Read Amos 7-9, Obadiah 1
 
Amos 9:14 "And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them."
 
Once the show down is finished, the story is over. However, readers don’t want the book to end abruptly.
 
They look for resolution. They want all the loose ends to be tied up, all the explanations clarified, and they want an idea of what the characters plan to do next.
 
A short resolution channels the readers’ emotions from the breathless excitement of the climax. It leaves them with positive feelings and satisfaction.
