In this episode, I’m going to delve into the amazing tool of backstory. If done correctly, backstory can help you fully develop your characters and help your reader better understand your characters by seeing elements from their past. But, if done poorly, backstory can take your readers out of the story and drive them away from your book.
So, if your characters have some interesting history (which I hope they do), let’s learn how to share it with your reader.
