Last Chance to Register! Mastering Flashbacks: Weaving the Past Seamlessly into Your Story’s Present
As a career book editor with decades of experience working on thousands of manuscripts, Tiffany Yates Martin will show you what makes a flashback essential, and how good ones can add meaning and impact to the main story. You’ll learn the difference between flashback and other types of backstory, and how to assess whether and when flashbacks serve your story best to more richly develop your characters and their arcs, heighten stakes, and deepen readers’ experience of your story.
