… The tyranny of suspense | William Landay. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
I tended generally to be in agreement with David Myers, but in this case I have to demur. I have often enjoyed the thrill of reading as fast as I could to have the suspense resolved. Of course, I have a strong streak of vulgarity, which could explain that. Bad fiction for me is something like David Guterson's Ed King, which certainly lacked suspense.
