@makeyourstorymatter: NEW VIDEO: How I Give My Dual POV Characters Completely Different Voices Are you writing a dual POV story and just realized that both your narrators sound like the SAME character? 😩 I feel your pain. This is one of the most common struggles in dual-POV writing — and guess what? The authors who nail this are NOT more talented than you. They're just using a few simple, specific techniques to make each character's voice pop and sound completely distinct. That's exactly what we're breaking down in today's video: my go-to framework for writing two narrators who never blur into one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjJk_0OZQVo&list=PLV6pMftb_QTl4F6is538bc-1Gb_FZ7pIJ&index=1&t=1s
My biggest pet peeve in dual POV books is when the male POV is meant to be a rough bad boy character but he’s using flowery language to describe the FMC 😭 what do you mean her hair is a miracle of silk spun to gold and unfolding in polychrome aren’t you an assassin

I just use third person omniscient. I like to feel like God is just rattling off the story and casually pointing out all their flaws.

I write my characters all as parts of myself so I just separate them by the part they're based on if that makes any sense😭

honestly I contrast it by having realism vs surrealism prose. Also one is more interiority forward while other is exteriority forward.

I think... I made three POVs in different chapters of my fic or in some parts of the chapters. Like this:
.
Caleb's pov, third person omniscient
Or
Paimon's pov, Caleb's pov, third person omniscient
Or even this
Paimon's pov, third person omniscient
.
That's it..
