Climax.
The big moment.
The heart pounding build-up where the tension is almost
unbearable.
This is what they’re paying you for—to turn that unbearable
tension into a successful climax.
If a writer can’t deliver, there’s no sense for a reader to
climb into their reading bed.
If sexuality can teach a writer anything, it’s that a writer isn't worth reading unless they can deliver a climax that literally leaves their readers gasping. It really is what they’re
paying us for.
Are you up to it?
Are you committed to it?
Do you lust after it, are you obsessed with it, will you make the moves
you know the reader needs and wants?
Or are you just writing for yourself? If you are, why do you string them
along? They won’t be happy if you
promise and don’t deliver.
You must always, always keep your partner in mind.
Who is your partner in this creative consummation?
Your reader.
If you forget them while you’re writing, you’re really just
dancing in the dark.
And that’s only half as much fun.
