Writing thrillers that work

  • Raise the stakes in every chapter — the reader should always feel the situation getting worse
  • Your protagonist's flaw should make the danger worse, not better
  • The best conspiracies are boring in their mechanics and terrifying in their implications
  • Withhold information — but never cheat. The reader should feel outsmarted, not cheated
  • Pace is a function of sentence length. Short sentences accelerate. Use them at the right moment.
