When writing a thriller or crime novel it's SO important to give readers the experience they want and meet people's subconscious expectations of the genre. In this video, I interview Ellie Marney, the NYT bestselling author of the NONE SHALL SLEEP series, THE KILLING CODE, and more. We talk about the thriller writing craft, important plot points to hit, subconscious reader expectations from the genre, tense prose writing, a five-point finale, and Ellie's personal plotting, drafting, and editing process.
I'm very excited to have Ellie on the channel. I loved her series so much I reached out to her as a fan, and I am beyond thrilled she agreed to come on and talk about thriller writing with me. I cannot recommend None Shall Sleep highly enough.

ABOUT: Hi, I'm Claire! I’m an award-winning self-published author of paranormal thriller books (my book "They Stay" won the Grand Prize at the 2023 Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards and is the first in a five-book series).
There is no one way to write a book. I’m a strong believer that the only way to develop your own writing process is by trying a bunch of different methods to find out what is the most helpful to you. In my videos, I share how I approach every stage in my writing process, from brainstorming to editing, in the hope that it could give you something to try that could help you level up as a writer. I share techniques that have improved my own writing so you can see if the same strategies help you.
