What makes omniscient narration different from multiple viewpoint storytelling—and how can you use it effectively without confusing your reader? In this webinar, Tim Storm of Storm Writing School will start with a quick tour of the major points of view, focusing on what each brings to the storyteller’s toolkit. Then we’ll dig into the often-misunderstood realm of omniscient POV: how it works, how it differs from “head hopping,” and when it’s the right tool for the job. With practical tips and examples, this webinar will help you develop a confident narrative voice for stories taking on multiple viewpoints.
