Hi,
Do you have a problem with PoV hopping when utilizing omniscient narrator?
I do and it annoys the heck out of me. I'm not overly concerned about PoV if it's not first person narration, but I do try to utilize a soft control and keep things generally from the same PoV, but I'm not a control freak about it.
But I slip. A lot. In the same chapter I'll have three different PoV's without purposefully slipping from one to the other.
I think it's one of those 'you get better as you do it' sort of things, but it's annoying to see when you go back over your work.
