Literary techniques I have used over the years part 2

Author - surrogate: Character who speaks for the author, sometimes a glamorized version of the author himself. (e.g. Me writing a book about communism and having a girl with long black hair and glass named Ashina Chezzi be against the new tyrants of this world who use communism. 


Chekhov's gun - one of my favorites. Its when you put in a seemingly pointless object in your sotry only to reveal its true purpose later.
