Скачать или смотреть Mastering Multi-POV | How to Write A Multi-POV Book

How do you tackle writing a multi-POV book? I'm not an expert but I DID majorly level up writing The Bitter End, and came out with some tips & tricks to share.

In a too-long but hopefully-helpful video, I'm going over potential pitfalls of multis, thoughts on number of POVs and tense, and then finally offering as much concrete advice on WHERE and WHEN and WHY to switch POVs in your book, and HOW to differentiate character voice in multi.

As always, everything is time-stamped so it's easy for you to skip ahead or around to what you're interested in. I share a lot of examples from my writing process of The Bitter End to better contextualize... you can skip anytime I start blathering about my book :P Or, if you're here for the Alexa bookish content... this is a double feature!

I was recovering from illness when I filmed this, so forgive the slightly scratchy voice... and more edits in this one b/c I had to cut out all the coughing!
