How to Conclude a Story or Novel [J. Ryan Stradal]

All Levels | One of the hardest jobs we have as fiction writers is deciding how and where to stop. In this one-day class, we’ll examine some of the classic endings in literature, explore the different styles and purposes of an ending, and discuss strategies for our own. To get the most out of this class, students should have a work-in-progress—anything from an outline to a finished manuscript—and provide an ending of their own (or another they admire) for discussion.
