11/14: Share an example of Chekhov's gun in your work.

Ugh. I find that so hard. Most of the time, my brain does it and I realize after the fact. But here is one:

In Book 1 of my Wolves, Ben forgets his jacket in a cabin. Took me a while to notice, and then I turned it into a plot point for Book 2 - someone finds that jacket and that is an important piece of information for that someone.

Wolves of the South (Book 1 is free.)

@Firlefanz I can't tell you how many of my clever plot devices were thanks to fortunate coincidence.
