It's Spooky Season! And in addition to enjoying the fall weather, pumpkin carving and planning your Halloween costume, this is the perfect time of year to curl up under a blanket with a beverage and a great thriller/mystery novel. We're all guilty of staying up way too late because we just have to finish this chapter, only to get to the end of the chapter and then have to know what happens next. 

But how do authors pace these novels to keep us reading late into the night? 

Assistant Editor Kade Dishmon is here to give us the secrets behind that pacing! 

This 90 Minute Webinar Will Cover: 

  • Plotting a mystery 
  • Clues, reveals and twists 
  • Pacing your story and keeping the reader engaged 
  • Live Q&A
