Hey everybody! I don't know if there is any actual answer to the following question but I just have to ask it:
Do you know if there is a rule concerning the use of MC names instead of "he/she"? Is there a figure not to exceed per page to avoid repetition? Maybe a grammatical rule...
I've remarked that my MC name comes back about 10 times a page, including the reported speech occurrences ("...", X said).
I don't think much about it when I write but I know that going with pronouns for too long can be incorrect
Maybe this is just about feeling though!
