So I decided after many thoughts to maybe try First Person..
However is it a good idea to do dual 1st person within the same chapter?
Like the first part of the chapter is told from the first main character and in the next scene(within the chapter and with page breaks) switch to the other Main character. I worry that readers may get confused of the "I" if it switches throughout the chapter.
My friend said if I planned to do dual Lead characters and switch between the two within the same chapters for scene breaks to use 3rd limited instead of 1st unless I use 1st and let the chapters be focal chapters instead of switching between scenes.
(It becomes tricky as I had wanted to also delve into the persoans of the other main/secondary characters when the mains/leads weren't around)
Edit: Or can you still use 1st & 3rd interchangeably? Meaning In one scene, it may focus on the lead characters yet in the next scene, it has nothing to do with the Leads and is focusing on the secondary characters and their plot?
