Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

One function is to add depth to the narrative. By jumping back in time, it can create a contrast with the present storyline in the graphic novel. This contrast can enhance the emotional impact. For instance, if a character is in a tough situation currently, a flashback to a happier time can make the current situation seem even more dire.

They can be signaled by the dialogue as well. A character might start reminiscing about the past, and then the visuals shift to show that past event. In addition, captions are often used to set the time and context of the flashback. For example, a caption might say 'Ten years ago...' before the flashback panels begin.

Well, in fantasy novels, flashbacks are great tools. They can be used to build a richer world. Say, a flashback could take readers back to an ancient battle that is still influencing the current political situation in the fantasy realm. Also, it can create a sense of mystery. A sudden flashback to an unknown event in a character's past can make the reader curious and eager to learn more.
