One Voice, Many Layers - Guests Talk on Fluid Narrators w/ Amy Minton
Update: 2025-08-06
Description
Join me as I chat with Amy Minton about the author-narrator-character relation, focal distance in framed narratives and multi-timeline stories, and how to ground your reader... and perhaps frustrate them, but in good measure. This is a spoiler-lite episode focused on the craft, and we'll mention plenty of examples.
