Tension is one of the most important aspects of narrative: it’s what keeps your readers unable to stop reading. In this webinar, author David Alexanian demystifies the concept of tension in writing, with techniques for building tension in your story to keep your reader turning the pages. You’ll learn the most effective ways to grab the reader’s attention — and maintain it, throughout your entire story.
