Step-by-Step Building Sexual Tension Between Characters

-
We'll do a kind of mini-workshop on the blog to show you how to build sexual tension either in a book or script. Watch the two methods I employ between Brea and her love interest Drew. Read it below, and I will deconstruct it for you to show you the slow progression and build up. Please notice, I know the entire storyline between these two, so I'm working by making subtle gestures that only an informed audience would notice, which is why you need to know where your story is going and how you intend for it to end so you can build the foreshadowing into the story. I'm not suggesting you don't let some parts of the story organically evolve, but I do know that to build the story arc you need to the end game and character flaws and motivations.

And mind you, nothing is sexier than a forbidden

He wasn't the least bit materialistic and never cared about worldly possessions. In the last 20 years after he moved to Alaska, I saw him three times, so we were not close; but I admire that he decided to live life his way up in the wilderness fishing for endless numbers of day. I always wondered how he seemed to never bore of it. He would catch so many salmon, he would live off fresh fish year round. He loved to cook, and I honestly have no idea why he got a degree in marketing from Sacramento State. Looking back on it, I think he would have made a terrific ranger. From an early age, he loved nature. He used to catch trout with his hands up at our family cabin. We would wander the forest together. When we were little, we spent sometimes two to three weeks up there, hiking around the w

   September is Hodgkin’s Disease Awareness Month, and new author Rick Czaplewski pre-released early copies of his new book Better Dirty Than Done to share his battle with the deadly disease. In the book, Czaplewski chronicles his experience in his early 20s being diagnosed and then treated for Hodgkin’s Disease. Through his unique storytelling, he weaves a captivating tale about being diagnosed and going through the subsequent treatment. Told during a one-week of his life where he questions his odds of survival, Czaplewski imagines an incredible new life full of unique adventures he wishes to take should he win this personal war.   Hodgkin’s Disease, a cancer of the lymphatic system, limits the body’s ability to fight infection. Lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, or groin may swell. Fatigue, fever, and chills are some symptoms. Treatments include chemotherapy, radiation, and in rare cases stem-cell transplant. The American Cancer Society’s estimates for Hodgkin ly
