10) Find a resolution

The solution to the conflict. In fiction, it is difficult to provide a complete resolution and you often need to just show that characters are beginning to change in some way or starting to see thing differently.

Some of the options for ending a story:

-         Open. Readers determine the meaning.

-         Resolved. Clear-cut outcome.

-         Parallel to the Beginning. Similar to the beginning situation or image.

-         Monologue. Character comments.

-         Dialogue. Characters converse.

-         Literal image. Setting or aspect of setting resolves the plot.

-         Symbolic Image. Details represent a meaning beyond the literal one.
