One that makes sense and is believable, not just because the drama and angst factor needed to be ratcheted up.

No, that's not aimed at any of you lovely people, but I know there are some authors who have managed to do that in the past in some fairly spectacular ways... It would make an interesting podcast, but I don't know if you'd want to mention people by name. More seriously, I do like someone else's guess about Deadlines - and how to miss them, although I don't think I need further practice at that. The promises and anticipation guess seems possible though. How to make fans and alienate them?
