Releasing your inner dragon
Starting Your Story - World building and Character Introduction
Show Notes

Drake and Marie re-visit starting your story and introducing your characters. They talk about how much world building is too much, how much is required and how important it is not to slow down the action with world building.
Then they turn the eternal bugbear: Do not use flashbacks in opening chapters! Kill them with fire!
Includes examples from Magic falls from the Sky
