RS, Author, Novelist on Nostr: It's a nonlinear story with two POVs in 1st person, switched with a name at the start ...
It's a nonlinear story with two POVs in 1st person, switched with a name at the start of each chapter. I am currently telling a story 7 years prior to the present story as MC1. Now I have a sequence that starts as a flashback but is best told by MC2. It's 13 years back and I tell it in MC2's POV. Then we return to MC1 at 7 years prior. Later we return to the present.
Is this too jumpy?
