Yep, I come across it a lot too. I've not read much of it yet. So far, I've just read the intro in the Kindle sample.
Today I'm looking at 'Who Says? Mastering Point of View in Fiction' by Lisa Zeidner. What POV inconveniences have you wrangled with? How did you get your storytelling back on track? #writingcommunity
!["[W]hen it comes to point of view in fiction, consistency is critical. Many of the missteps in early drafts of writing come as a result of an unjustifiable instability in point of view. That is not to say that a work of fiction can't have modulations or crescendos. But such departures have to make sense and serve a purpose, not just be for the convenience of the writer at that particular moment in the storytelling."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_fullsize/plain/did:plc:3bomf3pxq67asbikytbgfml2/bafkreifparyrzb7vyli4trj5tb5vw5prjsa5bctin3vi75f5tfh6odp5ea@jpeg)

Information about upcoming webinars provided by Claire Cronshaw of Cherry Edits
Tip Thursday in my writing craft group is about nicknames & terms of endearment and whether they should be capitalised. It features a picture of Jon Cronshaw (author) when I knew him as Placebo Boy. It's got Jim Halpert, aka Big Tuna! Ryan Gosling! What more could you want? Contact me for the link.
Useful advice from Cathy Rentzenbrink in her article 'Reading as a Writer' in The Writers' & Artists' Yearbook 2023. #writingcommunity
Strong Cronshaw representation at this year's #FantasyCon2024britishfantasysociety.org/events-2/fan...#writingcommunity
Same, Ayesha. I'm going to FantasyCon next month and I couldn't spare the time, energy or funds for two conferences this year, sadly. Feeling well jel of CIEPers now though.
An achievement I'm proud of: In Nov 2021, GJ Kemp reached out for a copyedit, my first word-of-mouth client. Thanks to Francesca Catlow for the referral. 350,000+ edited words later, we're still working together! The snowball started here. ๐ #writingcommunity#copyeditor#indieauthors#CherryEdits
