It seems that, about half of the time, I'll start writing a story in one narrative form and then part-way through decide it would actually be better told in another perspective (usually switching from first person to third person limited or vice-versa).

I'm wondering how everyone else chooses a narrative perspective in your fiction writing. Do you have a go-to favorite? Do you arbitrarily choose one and stick with it? Or are you like me and play around with point of view until it seems to "fit" the story?

 

What social media sites/platforms seem to be the best nowadays for following/interfacing with authors? As in, where are fiction writers congregating online nowadays? Social media? Siloed into personal Discord channels? TikTok? Other???

I used to follow a bunch of people on Twitter but kinda fell out of the social media game for a few years due to personal life stuff, and now trying to get back into it, it feels like everything is on fire (in a bad way). I don't want to go back to Facebook and Twitter for obvious reasons. Lemmy is cool, but super, super niche.
