After an absence of several years (due to a variety of causes, including having my e-mail account hacked - leading to TWO laptops being put out of commission; also a long trough in my bi[polarity ]cycle), I've returned to work... as a writer, an editor, a translator, and a publisher. My "publishing hut" is currently undergoing a complete make-over. It's "breaking and entering" into the digital market.
So here I am, back on W&As, as well. I'm keeping busy (there's lots of work in converting past titles into digital format), but I'll try to look in here now and then.
I'm currently working on a novel that includes multiple points of view, and I'm struggling a bit with how to structure it so that readers stay engaged and not confused.
Each POV character has a distinct storyline that eventually converges, but I’m not sure how often to switch between them or how to handle transitions smoothly. I’ve read novels that do this brilliantly — like The Night Circus or A Song of Ice and Fire — but when I try, it feels either too jumpy or too slow.
