The continuation

What was I saying?
Yes, the suspense!
If we do not get answers to the mysteries which were spread in front of us during the beginning of a movie or a novel, the story is tend to be called a failure.
To avoid that, we should write with the end in mind. Once we decide the way we would end the story, then we can keep on asking ourselves, how and why.
The whys would lead us to imagine the situation. The hows would make us build the logic.
Take for example, my novel "I spy you!"
I wrote an eerie (or what I thought as eerie) scene to evince interest in the readers.
I had to give a few twists or tie a few knots so that those could be undone by the end of the story.
But come to think of it, as I have come to the end of the novel, now I am finding that I have gone overboard about the sequences. Now I have to tone down the scenes. But I need to ensure that the interest does not get waned.
Quite a balancing act I have to do. Right?
Let me see how I would succeed!

Just for practice!

No, No, I am yet to continue my novel, I spy you! Why have I not written? well, I do not know how to take it forward!!!
I came up to some level. Now, I have to give a twist to the story. But my mind is blank.... No, it is not! It is cluttered.
See, I started with some idea. I had even envisioned the end of the novel. But there are some ifs and buts...
For a suspense novel, the artery is the logic. If I have created a few scenes only to evince interest in the reader and if I do not give a plausible, understandable, acceptable solution - then the story falls flat.
Remember some of the old suspense movies?
The heroine starts walking like a zombie in the forest in the middle of the night. The hero, aghast (and may be scared) follows her. The heroine sings and floats. She comes in front of a closed gate and it opens by itself. The story continues and we come to know that she was not a ghost and was made to act. what happened next?
