Deciding Which Characters Get a Point of View

In Episode 22, we focus on how we decide which characters get points of view in the novels we're writing. We discuss in detail how J. W. Judge's work-in-progress has evolved from his expectation of having multiple viewpoint characters to deciding on only one. Barbara Hinske sheds light on how we can use viewpoint characters as accent pieces to make a story lighter or darker. We also talk about choosing between first-person and third-person narratives.
