: Re: How to best develop a history based on characters POV, reflections and experiences I have several monologues of 6 characters. Each monologue starts with a little reflection, then tells an experience

With as many as 6 characters, writing from so many points of view can be really chaotic, so I would have someone read it and ask them if they are confused or lost. Depending on how you execute this, it could go either way.
