Laura Corin Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 .... put a family tree in the back. If your novel has more than about eight people in it, put a dramatis personae in the back. I started to re-read Behind the Scenes at the Museum, not remembering why I found it so irritating the first time. Not only is it four generations of a family but it's not written chronologically, so I just can't keep everyone straight. I know that this is a failing in me, but I'm reading it at bedtime and can't manage more than twenty pages per night. So I keep reading and getting confused and referring back.... That's my rant for the night. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexigail Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 This is why I can't read "epic" type novels. Too much to keep track of. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
