There is nothing more relaxing than finding a good book to read. Suspense fiction books are easy to get lost in and a good one will have you turning pages all night until it is finished. A good book will be one where the story keeps you guessing until the very end.
The great thing about reading fiction is the characters are make believe. The characters developed in suspense and fiction can be as scary as one wants them to be. If you have tossed around attempting to write, why put it off any longer. If you let you imagination go the rest will develop.
If you have always thought of becoming a writer, it is never too late to give it a shot. It does not have to be completed overnight and you could work on it when you have free time. Included are some suggestions to help you get started on writing the next best seller.
The first part should be to think of where you would want your story to be. The place should be one that you can associate with. When you were a child was there a specific place that terrified you. It could be your childhood home, town, a hospital, any place that could provoke fear.
The character is the next step. It is best to have a few main characters that interact through out the story. Remember there are also a good guy and a bad guy and many others in between. Make your characters come to life by describing them in full detail. Include their hair color, eye color and even what they are wearing if necessary. They point is to make them appear real. If the reader can picture the way they look they will come to life.
As the story develops, the scenes become more realistic and more suspenseful. Keep your reader wondering what is going to happen next and wondering why. If the reader starts to think they have the ending figured out only to find out they were totally off the mark, you have done a great job. A good story will have the reader anticipating what is going to happen next. When there is a suspect that turns out to be a good guy it adds more suspense. Keep the reader reading and guessing.
The ending should be a complete aha ending. Something the reader never saw coming. A good suspense will leave the writer as scared as the reader. If you get stumped on how to start or finish a book visit the library and read a couple of the best suspense novels you can find. Sometimes inspiration can be found in the place you would least expect it.
Sometimes sitting without thinking is the best way to begin. In other words, it is good to have a general idea of what you intend to develop, but sometimes we just begin best without over thinking. The characters will come to life in your imagination; you simply have to apply it to the paper. Remember things that make you think and wonder how that could happen. Writing suspense fiction books is just that it is fiction; you could make your characters anyone you want them to be and do anything you want them to do.
