•waking up: We've all done this (honestly, including me), but staring a book this way can get really boring really fast

•Character backstory: Have an awesome backstory? Cool! But don't jump right into it (I do this too... I'm learning a lot today)! There's something called an information dump, and explaining the whole backstory falls into that category! Doing this can make readers feel like they're reading an encyclopedia...
