Re: A Fallout Shelter is where I should be
I don't think the back story is wasted because it will help you understand your characters even if most of it never makes it into the final book. It might be fun for you to write flash fiction stories with the characters you have developed. Flash fiction is a great way to practice plot development and learn to write only what is necessary.
