Tips for Young Writers 20: Try to a get a picture of the ending in your mind before you reach it.

Try to a get a picture of the ending in your mind before you reach it. There’s nothing worse than reaching the end of a whole story then realising you don’t have a good enough finish. Basically, all the writing you’ve done could come to nothing! It’s only when I’ve got a little glimpse of the ending that I know my story is going to work out. When I’ve glimpsed that ending, even just a fraction of it, I know just where my story is taking me.
