EMOTIONAL LANDING - What feeling should linger? - How does reader decompress from climax? - What closure is earned? 2. THREAD RESOLUTION - Which threads must be explicitly tied? - Which can be implied or left? - What order for maximum satisfaction? 3. CHARACTER FINAL STATE - Where is protagonist now? - What has truly changed? - What glimpse of future is offered? 4. THEMATIC CRYSTALLIZATION - How does ending answer story question? - What image captures the theme? - What final insight is earned? 5. PACING AND LENGTH - How quickly to wind down? - What beats are essential? - When is enough enough? Write the denouement in two versions: - Extended (emotional closure emphasized) - Lean (quick, resonant exit) Recommend which suits this story better.
