How to keep them turning the page

How do you keep your readers awake into the wee hours, cursing you, fingers sore from compulsively turning the page? Come along and find out.

This session will cover the basics of the mysterious force called narrative drive. We'll talk about the three types of question that can make readers unable to put your work down until the very last word.

While particularly useful for genre fiction, the discussion will also be relevent to mainstream literature and even non-fiction. I'll do my best to make it fun, with plenty of interactivity and open discussion. Looking forward to seeing you there!
