Zach WeinersmithSo, lately I've been working on these comedy novels for kids, and one of the interesting things about writing farce is that the rules are pretty open about things like coincidence, characters suddenly changing their minds, etc. BUT, some rules are pretty tight. Such as, callbacks.
Like, suppose you have a scene where someone gets hit with a pie. That might be a little funny. But if the pie was established as existing 5 chapters earlier it's MUCH funnier. Note that this is true even if nobody said "that pie took me ages to make, so I hope it stays okay!"
