0 to 60: Write Pacing Your Readers Won't Forget (The Litore Toolkits for Fiction Writers)

Keep your readers on the edge of their seats. You've got great characters and a good idea for your plot, but your story builds tension too slowly; even you get bored in the middle, and you're the one writing it. How do you avoid the slow start, the overly predictable middle, the boggy subplots, and the unsatisfying ending? Pacing is not just about action. It's about the way you dance with the reader - where you drop clues, where you misdirect, where you cut between scenes, when you throw in unexpected complications, and how you raise the stakes. It's about knowing when to delay and when to deliver.
So how do you rev up the speed at just the right moments, give just the right amount of pause for breath, and play with readers’ expectations in ways that build suspense and give your readers surprises they'll be discussing for days? Jump into this book for Stant Litore’s exhilarating crash course on pacing in fiction. Beyond just theory, Write Pacing Your Readers Won't Forget - like earlier toolkits in this series - will provide you with over 30 exercises that will challenge you to make your fiction thrilling.
