"People will remember the botched ending over the fantastic story more." If that ain't the realest thing you ever said...

If the protagonist is single, the story has to end with him hooking up with the lead female. It's the only possible way for there to be a happy ending. Saving the world is meaningless if you don't get the girl.

The BEST ending possible: It turns out that the evil Dark Lord, the ones the heros of the story just stopped and planned on both destroying and conquering the world at the same time, was actually a minion of an even darker and lordier Dark Lord! It leaves room for a greater sequel on an even larger scale! Aka more $$$

"What the hell, this clearly contradicts everything you ever..." "If you were a real fan, you would be aware of an interview the author did five years ago in alaska where he clearly stated this was the case. Also, in the seventh edition of the comic spin-off series, we see several events foreshadowing this exact twist, so don't even try."

How to end a story: The protagonist married someone and had kids THE END.

I heard this advice once and I have used it in my writing ever since. "Decide your starting point, then decide your endpoint. Your middle is where the fun stuff happens."

Do writers really struggle with their endings? I'm more a "I know where everyone's coming from and I know how it ends, but how do I fill the in-between?" kind of guy.

George RR Martin also can’t figure out how to end his story. So DnD watched this video and wrote one for him.

"Hey, how do you write endings?" "Uh, just eat glue and write what you see" "I don't see anything" "That's fine"
@angrybeyondallreason
The ending to my story is quite literally “the good guys win and the bad guys lose.” Obviously there’s more to it than that. But the loose ends have been tied up beforehand, all that was left was the final battle and the culmination of the MC’s character development. Nothing more, nothing less. And also fuck anybody who tells you happy endings are cliche or cheating or boring. Mate I have the fluffiest most saccharine ending you don’t even know. My chars have been through hell and back, all other obstacles have been cleared, all that was needed was the big bad dying. Now they can go and live normal happy lives with their families and loved ones knowing they earned that shit. Your audience will appreciate a happy ending if your characters deserve it.

5:43 This reminds me of something : Writer : So, are your expectations subverted, yet? Reader : Yes. I was expecting a good story!
