Pages : 70

Book Description
Cliffhangers get a bad rap from the reading community. They moan and complain and say that they hate them with a passion! But from a writer's perspective, cliffhangers are little more than a tool for suspense, right? So how do we craft endings to our fiction novels that are exciting and suspenseful (and yes, sometimes leave information out!), but that don't enrage our readers? The answer to creating suspense is finding that balance between what to share and what to hide; it's about careful and strategic placement of details. In Hook, Line, and Cliffhanger, delve into the intricacies of effective (and ineffective!) cliffhanger endings. It will identify different types of endings that are often considered cliffhangers by readers, and discuss when to use them, when not to use them, and how to do so most impactfully. In addition, this book will go over the different types of book series, to better understand how to keep your reader turning page after page late into the night—and then grabbing the next book in the series as soon as they finish the first. Learn how to shove your readers over the edge of that suspenseful cliff, and have them enjoy the fall.

Book Description
Two young men, a mysterious silver bowl, and a shuttered Victorian mansion steeped in the sadness of a family curse ... Alex White and Xander Browne are newly-hired curators in the American Wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The rediscovery of a long-forgotten silver bowl covered in Arabic and Hebrew inscriptions sends the pair on a hunt for clues as to why it was made and by whom. Their search begins to unravel the secrets of the bowl’s origins as well as its connection to the Bencliffe family, whose centuries-old history is darkened by a legacy of madness and suicide. What begins as a professional friendship for Alex and Xander quickly turns personal as the two find their lives increasingly intertwined in unanticipated ways. Far beyond a mere curatorial research project, the story of the Bencliffe bowl takes on the aura of destiny as Alex and Xander make discoveries together that turn their world upside down. From neglected archives in New York and Boston to the shadowed corners of Cliffhanger, the turreted Bencliffe mansion looming over the Hudson River, the truth emerges, forcing Alex and Xander to wonder if, perhaps, their meeting might not have been a coincidence after all.

The spirit in man causes self-evaluation, reflection and ultimately the search for meaning and life's purpose. It is the empowering energy of humanity to seek and allow many to find the love of God that surpasses all reasoned understanding. Our life's journey is replete with mountains. The moments on mountain peaks are times for discovery and choices, conveying a lifetime process of spiritual identity and transformation. In CLIFFHANGERS, examples are offered from the Scriptures of individuals experiencing time at the pinnacle of the mountain, the questions they may have pondered and the outcome of their allotted time on the cliff: To show that every choice results in decisions which affect eternal security; To encourage you to focus on every choice by seeking God for the decision (Prov. 3:5-6); To develop a sincere and unyielding attitude regarding your relationship with God; To place this natural life and all things related to it into proper perspective (II Tim. 4:7); and To learn that all choices lead to a place of decision and all circumstances following each decision can be associated with advancement, neutrality or even decline in spiritual growth. The intended audience is anyone struggling with the complexity of life choices or in need of guidance with a life changing decision.
