I use this technique multiple times but one time I used it when describing Kathy (26) getting ready to shoot the ball‚ “Shoot it. Shoot it. Shoot it. A word with so many different meanings.” the reader asks what meaning it means and doesn’t figure it out until the end. Foreshadowing is yet another form of amazing writing Jackson
