Being a Better Writer: Another Look At Cliffhangers · 6:13pm May 20th
Welcome back, writers! To both you and to me! If you’ve missed it, that’s because I’ve been emmeshed in a move for the last few weeks, and today is the first post I’ve been able to make on a normal schedule again.
It feels good. It also feels good to be getting Axtara – Magic and Mischief so much closer to publication. There’s a post on that, though. So I don’t need to reiterate things here. You can just check that post out and get all the info you need.
Which means we can today dive right off the cliff, seconds away from the explosion, from three hundred feet up, into the ocean right as the chapter ends. Because today, we’re talking about cliffhangers!
Yeah, this should be a fun topic. Which is why we have covered it before. But … as long-running as this series has been, that really shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone. Besides, sometimes when covering a topic once more, we do so in a very different manner than the first time. And if this one doesn’t land for you, well .. there’s always that first one.
Either way, wind up and hit that jump. Why? Because that cute little kitten just activated the bomb timer, and we’ve only got seconds to run. Will we make it?
Hit the jump and find out.
Look, just because I've had one or two... um... dozen of these things.
