How To Write A Gripping Climax For Your Fiction Novel

The climax is a series of connected scenes that take us to the last dramatic change (big moment), where the protagonist and the antagonist (bad guy, bad situation, bad internal flaw) go head-to-head. Someone wins, someone loses, and because of this, our character’s inner journey is completed. After that, there’s no more story to tell.

This is a big deal. It’s rubber meet the road time, and the story will live on in the reader’s mind as an epic success or a floppy failure based on this moment.

No pressure, right? Ha!
