Overview: Write stories that grab your reader from page one to the end using a simple “magic” technique that always works.
Create Story Tension.
Story writing is challenging. Although the images in your head are vivid, you need to convey them with intensity for your reader to become involved in your story. Translating these images requires story movement that you may not be clearly communicating because you already know what’s going on in your story world. You may not see that the reader perceives a story without tension. If you haven’t first communicated your story’s direction, stasis can occur even when you’re writing action.
As a story coach, I find lack of story tension one of the most common problems, and arguably the deadliest since at every moment your reader is tempted to put down your story.
I first discovered how challenging it was to write with tension while composing my own first novel. Although I felt I was doing everything right, the story was dragging. I put it away for a year. When I took it out again I experimented to add a story direction and adapted an invisible method that worked phenomenally–the light bulb went on. Many people told me when reading my novel that they kept wanting to go to bed, but decide to read “just one more chapter” until they found it was three in the morning. Yea!
