: Re: How To Settle On An Ending? I've had a few different ideas for an ending that I've narrowed down to two. They both fit the tone and they both fit the story. But they are also completely

When you're struggling between two endings, how you handle it depends on some factors you've not gone into.

For example, is it possible to create an ambiguous ending readers will interpret as one or the other of the two endings you've been considering? I realise that might not be possible in your case, but if it is it would be very effective.

A related approach is to make some unreliable-narration or framing-device edits earlier in the manuscript that allows you to present each ending but leave it unclear which one is "right".
