How the Domino Effect Can Help Writers Build Suspense

A domino is a rectangular block made of rigid material such as wood or bone with one to six pips or dots arranged on its surface, usually one per side. Sets of 28 dominoes referred to as bones, cards, men, or pieces usually form the basis of most games; when stacked end over end in long rows to create complex patterns dominoes can be used for many different games.

Dominoes can be used to form curves and grids with pictures when they fall, as well as 3D structures like towers and pyramids. Hevesh follows an iteration of the engineering design process when creating each of her stunning displays: she first considers its theme or purpose before brainstorming images and testing individual sections of dominoes before assembling an entire display together – this allows her to make precise corrections before final assembly and ensures each element works according to plan.

Though most people immediately associate “domino effect” with Domino’s pizza delivery services, the phrase can apply to any situation in which one event triggers a chain reaction. For instance, starting an altercation at work may lead to other colleagues joining in the fray; or leaving pizza on your car seat may prompt other drivers to place food there too or even drive off road!

The domino effect is an application of physical law in which each object exerts an equal and opposite force on each adjacent one, causing them to exert equal and opposite forces on all subsequent objects until all have taken up all the energy from its initial transmitter.

As writers, the domino effect can help writers build suspense. No matter whether you prefer writing without any preplanning (known as pantsing) or planning tools such as Scrivener to guide their story, the domino can help keep tension high in a manuscript. For instance, writing a scene which raises stakes but leaves nothing for characters to respond to means it has failed its intended function and needs reworking if this fails to create enough drama for readers to care.

A domino effect can be both beneficial and devastating, making every domino’s outcome unpredictable and exciting to witness!
