Name: Under Siege: How External Pressure Drives Page‑Turning Suspense
Start: 2026-01-17T03:00:00.000Z
Location: Brisbane Square Library

This workshop dives into **Rule #4: Turn Up the External Pressure**—the fuel that keeps readers flipping pages late into the night. Whether it’s a ticking clock, a closing trap, or a threat breathing down your hero’s neck, external pressure is what takes a “nice idea” and transforms it into a *must-finish-now* thriller.

We’ll break down real examples, explore what makes pressure believable, and help you identify the gaps in your own story. Bring your premise, your plot holes, or just your passion. We’ll workshop it together—freely, supportively, and without anyone trying to take your rights or profits.

**New to Suspense Club?** You’re welcome. This is a free, open, and judgment-free space where writers of all levels explore how to build stories that punch, twist, and grip from the very first line.

**Date:** Saturday, January 17, 2026
**Time:** 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
**Location:** Brisbane Square Library, Meeting Room 1.9 (Upstairs)

Seats are limited, so register early.
**Let’s turn up the pressure—together.**
