<u><em>Events that build tension in a story</em></u>
[ Explanation ]
<u>The events that build tension hook the reader in, and they are the ones that lead to the tip of the story. </u>Think of it as a roller coaster. <em>We are going up a huge hill, and the closer we approach the top, the slower we go. That is the events that build tension. </em>We are waiting for the story to reach the top, maximum part. Once we reach the top, all we can go is down.
