Downs & Downs

I do hate books where things just get worse and worse for the characters, and there's no hope of improvement until the end. Too negative. Downbeat. Crushing for reader.

I prefer to have some things go right for the characters earlier on, and even have really good things happen. It adds a positive element, and gives them more to lose when everything collapses!
