The beginning to an end
The beginning and end of a story is the most important part. The beginning should be set up so that it grabs your attention and makes you interested in what's to come in the rest of the story. However the beginning is phrased there should always be a thesis statement. The ending could do many different things such as: sum up the whole story in several ways, go back to what was said in the beginning, or somehow end it in a way so the reader feels a certain emotion about the story and maybe make them think deeper about related things. Throughout the entire story, not just the beginning and end, you should guide the reader along so they know exactly what is being talked about. Titles can be a good source to guide the reader because it usually has something to do with the story, the thesis statement is the key element because it says what is going to be said in that specific paragraph, and topic sentences state the subject of the paragraph. In my opinion the beginning and end are what make or break the story because when I read the beginning it should be interesting to me or else I'm not going to read the rest. The ending should sum up the whole story so it all makes sense or evoke certain emotions from me that keep me thinking.

I like your background, and I like that you bolded the important stuff in here. Breast cancer is a great thing to spread the word about.
