To make readers want to finish your book, you need several things:

  • an interesting plot that makes them wonder what's going to happen next
  • characters that the reader cares about
  • suspense or tension that makes the reader want to know how it ends

What does write for readers mean?

To 'write for readers' is the same as 'consider your readers', which both mean, you must consider the audience who will be reading what you write. If you were writing a young children's simple story book, you would not use large words like bio-degradable or approximate. But those words would be good if you were writing to a high school or college audience, i.e. people with higher education.

Why can't you write it was a dream at the end of the story?

Ending a story with "it was a dream" can be seen as a cliché and may leave readers feeling disappointed or cheated. It can also diminish the impact of the events that occurred in the story by suggesting that they didn't truly happen. It's generally more satisfying for readers to have a clear resolution that doesn't rely on a dream twist.
