Continuing their series on structure, the Writing Excuses hosts examine mirroring and inversion and how those structural shifts interact with the three POVs. In this episode, they talk about the parallelism of the perspectives and the linguistic references to seasons.
They ask:
- How many things need to work in sync in order for readers to feel the cyclical nature of the plot (and life)?
- How does N.K. Jemisin use structural arcs, beats, and elements to create upheaval?
- And finally, how can you create overlapping emotional states and narrative rhyming in your own writing?
