Interesting. But I would add this observation: Even more vital to the story than the infusion of tension is the manner in which that tension is released or resolved. That, to me, is the writer’s greatest challenge.
Fantastic discussion about a key ingredient in engaging writing: Tension. Thank you Michael for your examples and I will definitely add a bit of this seasoning to my upcoming memoir. After doing a bit of a deep dive on your writing, I feel like I know you much better as a writer. It was interesting to learn about your background and significant experience as both a writer and an editor.
Excellent!
