Hello again,
ever since I posted the last blog, i've been thinking about the angles I could take with this project. The storyline, the genres, etc. But after careful consideration, I think I have figured out my genre. My favorite genre is action/thrillers so I think going down that route would be smart since I know about it more and it interests me.
Some of my favorite action thrillers are:
- Bourne (the whole movie series)
- Jack Ryan (TV show)
- Reacher (TV show)https://blog.reedsy.com/how-to-write-a-thriller/
On the website listed below, I found 7 easy steps when creating a thriller.
Step 1: Flesh out you character and their motivations
Step 2: Start with action - The opening scene should start with action. It is important in the creating/building of the plot
Step 3: Show what's at stake - High stakes are important characteristics in thrillers.
Step 4: Make it difficult for your protagonist - Your audience needs to care for your protagonist and their fate, and a good way to do this is by placing them in situations where it’s impossible to tell if they’ll make it or not.
Step 5: Bring on the twists - Thrillers are mainly propelled by plot events
Step 6: Build up to the climax - Make sure you take time to get to the point and make it shine.
Step 7: Give the story a satisfying ending - Keep up with the story you've been telling and make sure the ending fits well.
Looking forward to bringing you along my journey.
Till next time!
