: Re: How should I "remind" the reader of something that they may have forgotten? Say there is a small detail in the beginning of the book that has a big effect later on. The reader might've forgotten
You can show it somewhere in between your narrations, as if the character remembers that stuff or any incident, indirectly telling about it. A mention or a comic event is usually remembered by the readers.
But don't do it in a way as if you are telling it again and again. It should appear as if the stuff was important to come up at the moment.
At least two references will help.
