Psychological thrillers are hot right now.
You’ve seen the titles turned into movies. You’ve probably read and watched plenty yourself.
They’re addictive.
It’s not just the suspense that pulls you in.
Yes, you know something bad is threatening the protagonist, but a big part of the draw is what you get to see going on in the characters’ heads.
You love this genre so much, you want to write your own. But for starters, you need to know the elements of a psychological thriller.
Let’s start by getting clear on what it is — and isn’t.

Your own perspective and the connections that form in your mind will take that partial image and complete it.
We kept that in mind while creating this list of 51 writing prompts for your novel. May each one flood your mind with the possibilities.

And maybe you want your memoir’s impact to serve as your legacy — a testament to how you made a small (or large) difference.
The collection of memoir questions in this post can help you create a legacy worth sharing.
So, if you don’t already have enough ideas for a memoir, read on.

Writing romance isn’t as easy as many people seem to think.
“You write romances? I could totally do that, too, but I have SO much on my plate. Plus, I think if I’m gonna write a book, I want it to be more of a challenge.”
Said by someone who has never finished writing a romance (or not one worth reading).
Because one thing good romance writing is not is easy.
It’s a real challenge to write an engaging story with two characters whose personalities and chemistry keep the reader hooked all the way to a satisfying end.
