Something I'd like opinions on, if you fine writers would be so kind. ^_^
My novel is giving me some trouble at the moment, mainly because the opening is much longer and drawn out than I had originally planned it to be. This brings to me to my question: is it better to introduce the main conflict immediately / nearly immediately, or is it permissable to use up one or two chapters just to get everyone in place and your characters to the well-defined forefront?
Merci, to all who care to throw their thoughts at this.
