I've just spent the better half of a month writing and perfecting my prologue. It sets the tone for the rest of the story with an event which kickstarts the main narrative of the book. Why should I avoid a prologue? Is it the type/style of narrative in a prologue that needs to be avoided or is it the stigma of a prologue?
