Continuity

I hate when you forget something in chapter three that was really cool and then write something in chapter nine that's just as cool but can't happen if the cool thing in chapter three isn't changed and then you have to decide which cool thing to leave in to allow other specific cool things to happen in the book later. Know what I mean?
