A possible ending sentence is 'At long last, the mystery was solved, and peace settled over the land, a hard - earned peace that would be cherished for generations to come.' This sentence is good for a story that has a mystery element. It resolves the mystery and then shows the positive outcome of that resolution, which is peace. The mention of it being cherished for generations to come gives a long - term perspective and a sense of the significance of what has happened in the story.
Another good ending sentence is 'And with that, the story faded into memory, but its essence remained, like a warm glow in the cold night.' This sentence has a somewhat bittersweet tone. It acknowledges that the story is over, but also that it has left a mark. The comparison to a warm glow in the cold night makes it more vivid and gives a sense of comfort and nostalgia. It implies that the story has been something that has provided a kind of warmth or meaning, and even though it has ended, that meaning will still be there, much like a glow that lingers even when the source of heat has gone.
Here is one: 'As the last page turned, the echoes of their adventure lingered in the air, a reminder of all that had been.'
How about 'In the middle of the crowded marketplace, she saw a face that made her heart stop.' This is a great first sentence as it creates a moment of shock and recognition. The reader will want to know who that person is, what their relationship is with the main character, and why seeing them had such a powerful effect. It also gives a sense of a bustling, public setting which can contrast with the very personal and intense reaction of the character.

You could also end a story with 'As the last page turned, the characters' lives became a part of the reader's heart, and their story would be told again and again.' This ending emphasizes the connection between the story and the reader. It makes the reader feel like they are an important part of the story's continuation, that they will carry the story with them and perhaps share it with others.
Sure. 'The old house stood alone on the hill, its windows like empty eyes staring into the abyss.' This gives a spooky and desolate feeling right from the start. The comparison of the windows to 'empty eyes' is vivid and makes the house seem almost alive in a menacing way.
Sure. 'As I walked into the abandoned asylum, a chill ran down my spine that had nothing to do with the cold.'
An opening sentence could be 'The first time they touched, it was as if an electric current ran through their veins, a sign that something extraordinary was about to begin.' This sentence focuses on the physical connection between the two characters. It creates a sense of anticipation and excitement, making the reader eager to find out what this extraordinary thing will be. It also plays on the common trope of a special, almost magical connection between lovers.
Death was not scary, but the endless darkness that followed. In this world, there is nothing more important than life and nothing more precious than love. Everyone has their own story, and the beginning of the story is always similar. Nothing is eternal in this world, including love and friendship. True love is not about giving everything, but about making yourself a better person. Everyone has a blind spot that they can't walk out of and others can't break in. Only after experiencing hellish torture can one have the power to conquer heaven. Love is not possession but appreciation. When you fall in love with someone, you will appreciate everything about them, including their shortcomings. In this world, nothing is more important than time, and nothing is more precious than life. Time would dilute everything, and life would continue everything. Everyone has their own dreams, and what is needed to realize their dreams is perseverance and indomitable spirit.
Sure. In 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald, 'In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since.' This opening draws the reader in as it implies there's some important advice and that the narrator has been reflecting on it. It gives a personal touch and sets the stage for the story about the narrator's experiences with Gatsby.
Sure. In 'Pride and Prejudice', the last sentence 'Darcy, as well as Elizabeth, really loved them; and they were both ever sensible of the warmest gratitude towards the persons who, by bringing her into Derbyshire, had been the means of uniting them.' This last sentence ties up the love story neatly, showing the happy union of the main characters and their mutual love for their families.
Finale. It gives the sense of the last part, often used in a more dramatic or musical context as well, but can be applied to a story to mean the end where everything comes to a close.
