why did you choose to switch back and forth between povs rather than doing a third person omniscient approach
this is such a fun question and it did get kind of long oops anyways tldr: i tend to favour povs rather than an omniscient approach bc it offers me a lot more opportunities to deliver information to the reader in a way that i find more engaging.
the events of tme (past present and future) are so heavily influenced by the character's psyche and memory and lived experiences that it felt like it would lose emotional impact if portrayed otherwise: eve's dissociation in ch8 is jumbled and confusing and mixes memories across years, all of villanelle's experiences with oksana are fraught with internal conflict, stuff like that. it felt odd and disingenuous to put an experience that's so internal and personal alongside other viewpoints and experiences. brains are faulty and i like showing that.
working from a pov also means i have a lot more to work with in terms of show don't tell, and then flipping that pov to another party gives even more! if i Tell you that vil notices something that eve does when she's sensitive (pulls at her sweater sleeve, chews her lip, what have you), the next time i Show eve doing that, you'll also notice that she's sensitive... but what if vil is wrong? then you, the reader, are also wrong. they both lie/omit the truth a lot as well, so it's extra fun to play in that space from a position of the liar or the lied to- i, the author, already know who's lying and when and why, i want to see what the reader thinks!
through their pov, i can give the readers the same assumptions or hunches or suspicions that i can give the character at hand, and that's just a lot more fun to me as a writer. also since it's such a long and detailed work i feel like this kind of approach can be rewarding for readers who notice stuff and go "hey didnt eve say this 10 chapters ago?!" because yes!!! she did!!!
tldr2: i am a sucker for an unreliable narrator
