RE: How long to sea mail a package to the UK from australia? I can&#39;t seem to find a specific time period for how long it takes to mail packages to the UK through sea mail... except dates for Christmas deliveries, which are almost 3 months prior.
One thing a suspense date IS NOT, it is not a date by which time something is required to be done in most cases. It's just a control for any needed follow up. In the real world, a suspense date is a date that something needs to be done by.
Suspense is the element that authors use to try to leave the reader hanging, trying to figure out what will happen next, especially when the author does this at the end of the book without actually telling what happens. This leaves a particularly strong effect. Suspense is what gives the reader the on-edge feeling. Suspense builds in order to make those final moments, no matter how short, the most memorable moments in the work. For example, in The Road by Cormac McCarthy suspense builds constantly.
