Tips to Writing Mysteries

“Suspense keeps readers hanging. It makes them uncomfortable. It compels them to turn the pages. Suspense, in other words, is the cure for boredom” - William G. Tapply, The Writer, August 2005

“Study the sleuths, villains, and successful mystery novelists. Note especially what the characters want and how the author convinces you that they will do anything to succeed.” - William G. Tapply, The Writer, December 2006
