Self-Editing for Deeper POV by Pegg Thomas
May 21, 2024 at 7:00 PM Eastern
Karen Witemeyer did a wonderful presentation on deep POV in March of 2022. It’s
available to members in the FHLCW’s livebinder as #42. She covers what deep POV is, when to use it, and how to use it. Pegg Thomas is going to take it a step further and talk about how to spot when you haven’t used it during your self-editing process. She’ll cover:
- Trigger words
- Using the five senses
- Dialogue & internal dialogue
- Staying true to your characters
