Thanks for sharing. This is such good advice. I hate when authors wait to the end of the book and then dump a whole backstory that seems to come from no where on you. It never seems to work out.
Thank you! Mr. Bishop would really scold us when we held back information. He’d tell us, “What are you waiting for! You’re an infinite font of ideas and aren’t going to run out!”
