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!
