Hello and welcome to the blog hop! It’s been a long week. I’ve been cleaning, organizing, going through things and dealing with my son who loves to push my buttons. I think I need a massage, or a weekend away at a cabin. Just me and my books.
The topic for today is how do you surprise readers with unique and unpredictable plots?
This is a hard question for me. I like when authors make twists and turns in books, but I also love the happily ever afters. I think when authors do write in something that’s unexpected, it makes the book much more interesting.
I was reading a book last year where the two main characters are together but there was a huge fight scene. At the end we discover that he’s been changed for the bad, but he’s still good and still in love with the heroine. I’m waiting on the next book and I really hope she finds a way of keeping them together, someway.
I didn’t enjoy the ending of Game Of Thrones, I felt that Jon Snow and Daenerys were meant to be together…SOMEHOW, not just burn up everything and have him go back to The Wall, alone. I felt like George R.R. Martin just rushed that and didn’t even think about the ending. I was so disappointed.
When I write my stories, I try to make the character relatable so that if there is a plot twist, I can make it unique and the readers will want to keep reading. Maybe something has attached them to that character. I hope I do justice to make a novel unpredictable, but still include that happy ending.
That’s it for me, now continue on the hop to see how the talented Leslie Hachtel surprises her readers. Until next time!
