: Re: Introducing a new POV near the end of a story This question is strongly related to this one: Balance between character's point of views However, that question is asking about balancing POVs

I constantly run into questions like this. They intimate to me too much fancy booklearnin' and nowhere nearly enough thinking.

THE POV IS HELD BY THE LAST PERSON TO PERFORM AN ACTION.

Cindy woke in unfamiliar surroundings. As she hunted for her underwear in the dim light her mind replayed the previous evening's events. She shrugged. It wasn't like John hadn't cheated on her before. But not since the wedding. This wasn't payback it was . . . excusable, justifiable. Fuck it. He'd never find out.

John glared at the front door. He checked his watch, 5am, still his wife was not home. This wasn't like Cindy. Cindy wouldn't do anything untoward, if she knew about his premarital shenanigans . . . He pulled his phone. "The Hospitals, I need to check the hospitals."

A simple change of POV - not complicated.
