Hey guys. It's me again.
So today, I managed to complete my plan for the post-apocalyptic horror novel I'm currently writing and I'm unsure of how to proceed.
Briefly, chapter 1 tells of the story of the main character (Michael) struggling to contain the reactor from melting down and scorching her earth. Throughout the chapter, there is direct speech from Michael via a voicemail left for his wife and daughter. The chapter ends with him blacking out as radiation erupts through the roof and spreads over the country.
Now... With chapter 2, I don't know whether to have a series of flashbacks leading up to the disaster or whether to carry on in a linear structure and sprinkle in bits about Michael's past throughout?
What is your advice?
Thanks!
