Hi, I'm writing a contemporary Fantasy/mystery about someone who comes to our world from another land and the back story to the character is important to the novel. But the back story is things that happened in the other land. The back story is important to understand the motives of this character and important to the plot.
I'm new to writing and was just wondering what ways could I present the back story without affecting the flow of the story.
I was thinking of presenting it as a mixture of conversation between characters, flash-backs and investigation (by another character). Would that be good?
I was wondering what the best way is to write a flashback scene? There isn't tons of back story, but I was a bit concerned about setting some scenes back in the "Fantasy" world this character comes from, though it might give more insight into her personality.
Just wanted some opinions on this.
Thank you for answering
