Esther replied to the topic How Many MCs/POV Characters Is Too Many? in the forum Characters 1 year, 9 months ago
I agree with what hybrid and highscribe said. Definitely consider the length and genre of your book first. If your novel is only going to be 60-70k, I would definitely hesitate adding more POV characters cuz then they each only get 10-15k each and that’s really not a lot in the big scheme of things.
Also consider if each c…[Read more]

Oh, whoops. I forgot I got hit by a snowball.

Liam didn’t seem to agree, but he let the matter go.
They were silent a moment. Then, Liam started coughing. It was a small cough at first, but it grew harsher and stronger. “Easy, easy,” Werner said, carefully helping Liam to sit up. He whipped out his handk…

So fun to work with!
I know! Sabina is gonna get herself killed.
But, she’s like that. I mean, remember how spunky she was when she was being a total snark to Aaron and Turin. She hasn’t lost all of that.
still, it scares me when she does stuff like that!

I try to never have more then 1 MC for a given setting.
So, my last book only had one, but his brother and wife were very heavily leaning toward MC state, and Cora even got her own POV at one point. However, Ethan was the one the book followed the closest.
The one I’m writing currently has three MC in three different locations,…[Read more]

I think I love this book already.
One thing I noticed…if these are Slavic names in Slavic culture, they aren’t quite right. Dmitry Volkova is feminine; Dmitry Volkov is masculine. Even as a surname, I believe the name gender changes, although I’m not sure if Sofiya’s name changes…but I think so. Also,…[Read more]

the 20s really marked the beginning of people turning away from traditional values, something the USA tried to go back to in the 50s before all fell apart in the 60s…and we’ve just gone downhill from there🤷🏻♀️
Better in some ways, a whole lot worse in others.
