How to Write a Page-Turner: Master the Art of Tension

Tension in novels, stories, and even memoirs is like the connective tissue that allows muscles to attach to bones, and thus flex their might. It’s the heart of conflict, the backbone of uncertainty, the hallmark of danger. It keeps readers guessing, and characters on their toes. This workshop will help writers master the art of tension on every page and within every element of the story to crafting a story your readers can't put down!
