Nov 26, 2009 Writing and Speaking
People love to read a good book. It enables us to go into another world without leaving our own world. Suspense books are especially exciting to read. I am going to show you how to write creative suspense fiction books. If you are a creative thinker, and can come up with fantastic twists in the story line, then you can write these types of stories.
As you start writing you book, you will have to have a story in mind already. It might be interesting to write the end of the book, then taking the story from there. This way you can plan each twist that will happen, making each twist progress in the danger factor. This keeps the characters role active, and the readers more interested. As you write keep your readers in mind.
You have good and evil in most every book that you read. There are always the two forces that are pitted against each other. The good force against the evil force. Everyone wants to see the evil force go down in the end. Readers also want to see the good force, like the underdog, rise above everything and be the hero in the end. Readers will be dissatisfied with the evil force if he is not stopped before the end of the book.
When writing any book, it needs to be written in such a way that we know each of the main characters. What I mean by that is to know the emotional feelings, and what the two main characters are thinking. An exciting thing to do is not telling the name of the evil guy until toward the end of the book. Make it a huge surprise for you readers. Anything that you put in the book like that, the more the readers will excited about your book.
All writers want to keep their readers active in their story. One way of doing that is to use several different plots and twists through out the book. It is a good idea to keep the evil guy always out the get the good guy. Write the plots that could actually happen, unlike science fiction writing where you can use monsters and aliens if you wanted to do that.
You have now established your two main characters in the book. The next step is to bring in more characters for your readers to follow. These characters will have certain roles to portray such as a lover for the good guy and the bad guy. You could also make the extra characters be friends to the two main characters. Be creative about their roles as you are writing the story.
As we discussed earlier, to keep the bad guys identity hidden until towards the end of the book would be something unexpected from the readers view point. The idea is to keep the reader coming back, and wondering what is going to happen next. That is what good story writing is all about. That is what a reader expects when reading your book.
I hope I haven given you a few tips that you will be able to use in your story writing. To understand your writing, read your story without thinking like a writer. If after you have read your story and have a few concerns, then change it until it reads well. What a writer wants above anything else is to have their readers be satisfied and excited about your story. That kind of story writing is what makes you a wonderful writer.
