Hook, Line, and Cliffhanger

By A. J. Sieling

Cliffhangers get a bad rap from the reading community. They moan and complain and say that they hate them with a passion But from a writer's perspective, cliffhangers are little more than a tool for suspense, right? So how do we craft endings to our fiction novels that are exciting and suspenseful (and yes, sometimes leave information out ), but that don't enrage our readers?

The answer to creating suspense is finding that balance between what to share and what to hide; it's about careful and strategic placement of details.

In Hook, Line, and Cliffhanger, delve into the intricacies of effective (and ineffective ) cliffhanger endings. It will identify different types of endings that are often considered cliffhangers by readers, and discuss when to use them, when not to use them, and how to do so most impactfully. In addition, this book will go over the different types of book series, to better understand how to keep your reader turning page after page late into the night-and then grabbing the next book in the series as soon as they finish the first.

Learn how to shove your readers over the edge of that suspenseful cliff, and have them enjoy the fall.
