Creating a story that sizzles…

I love a good story. And that’s the main reason why I enjoy writing so much. A story should make the characters come alive within your mind, to the point that you can feel the emotion and believe that you are apart of this tale. If you can put the book down and tell yourself that you’ll read it later, then the author hasn’t done their job. The story should shock, amaze, frighten, and satisfy you in ways that defies logic. Yes, you may think that is a lot to ask of a book, but in order to picture an event in your mind, the image you are imagining must be clear, and distinct. Description is important, and a key factor in making the story an outstanding one. Whether it’s erotica, adventure, horror, thriller, romance or mystery…. it is only the very skilled and imaginative author that thinks outside the box, that will be able to somehow combine all of these into one fantastic sizzling story. A story you won’t be able to walk away from…..
