Highlights:

-We need something to connect to. Details of setting. Histories. Hints or statements about how the characters came to be who and where they are.

-Allow the past and present to have their own plots and progressions.

-Showing is great, of course, but telling can be powerful. So don’t shy away from stating things plainly when your story warrants it.
