These categories are part of the vast panorama of endings that writers can use. There are as many variations of endings as there are articles and writers. Can you use a description of an empty racetrack, then a quotation from a driver who won (or lost) a major motorsports race?

Can you end an article with the “you” ending talking to your reader then end with a rhetorical question?

Can you use an anecdote about a personality, then a description of them? Yes.

Can you contrast two principal subjects at the end of an article?

ADVERTISEMENTS:

Can you match a technique used at the end of a feature to the same type of beginning used in the lead?

You are limited only by your imagination and your knowledge of leads, structures, transitions, and endings. The more you know about writing techniques, the better your material becomes. Count on it.
