You would have to be sure to have a sub-heading under each chapter with the character's name so that the reader didn't get mixed up. Plus, it might be confusing having everything in omniscient but 4 different people. How would you handle when two or more of the characters interacted? I think it would be hard to write. You could have 1 in 1st and the other 3 in 3rd, with the character name sub-heading included.<br /><br />Another thing is that most books are not written in omniscient, multiple povs. Unless you're a big name, established writer, I think you should stick with the norm of the industry.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694966948181862580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1815891608238329810.post-82662172240312384322011-08-03T14:41:59.826-07:002011-08-03T14:41:59.826-07:00I started off writing 3rd person POV.

I have 4 sisters and I want all their POVs to count. I don't want to 1st person POV hop. I was thinking of doing omnipresent POV, but I was recently told by another writer I'll have a hard time selling it.Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.com
