THanks for your replies. I appreciate the feedback. Hmmm. I've always been warned flashbacks are tricky little buggers, so I guess I'll play around with the idea a little longer before making any huge changes. Right now I have the MC in a position in chapter 1 that he ends up in <i>again</i> at the ...

THe reason I'm playing with the idea of flashbacks: My MC makes a hard choice in the heat of the moment and the results follow him through the story, kind of like Post traumatic stress. I have the pivotal action in chapter 1 and go on from there, but now I'm thinking I might ought to (southern speak...

writing with flashbacks
Can anyond tell me some well-written examples of books using flashbacks as a storytelling method? Preferably mid-grade or YA stuff, but I'll read pretty much anything. THanks. I want to tinker with my WIP and try to keep the 'mysterious event' a little more mysterious.

Mlou and Writingmom, Polish and publish? Scary! No, the first story I wrote wasn't even in my genre, so I have no confidence in it, whatsoever. I also never quite finished the story, even though I reached the 50K required to 'win'. Last year's effort is a YA novel. I've had a couple of people read i...
