Circular Narrative

Design a story where the conclusion ‘mirrors’ the starting scene, providing a sense of completion.

Understanding beginnings and endings as two sides of the same coin is an effective way of shaping a satisfying narrative. Start and end your story with similar scenes, circumstances, or lines but with a different context or character development. This encourages retrospective insight for your readers and delivers a sense of the journey having come full circle, offering a poignant narrative satisfaction.
