"Creating Tension in Your Story"
Tension is essential for keeping readers engaged and invested. Tension isn't just about explosions and fights, but rather the underlying sense of unease, anticipation, and conflict that makes readers want to know what happens next. Learn how to weave it into your narrative to keep readers hooked from beginning to end.
