Author Craft / Re: Are Flashbacks Completely Taboo?

Thanks for the advice!  The information is something that can be conveyed in conversation between two characters but I think that maybe a flashback has more of an emotional punch to it.  I'll play with it and see if it works or if there's a better way of doing it.

Author Craft / Are Flashbacks Completely Taboo?
« on: July 19, 2011, 09:27:48 PM »
There is a flashback in my novel that isn't very long, just a few lines of dialogue and some action, at a moment when the hero needs to make an important decision, when the character can either evolve or devolve (so to speak).  But I keep reading about how flashbacks are completely taboo, you should never do them, period.  Is this true?
