あらすじ・解説
The main reason you don’t want to head-hop is that it confuses the reader. Head hopping damages your story by making the writing feel choppy. It makes it harder for the reader to identify with and care about what’s happening to a key character, and if they don’t care, they won’t continue to read. Readers need to connect emotionally with the characters. When readers need to pause, even slightly, to figure out who they’re supposed to identify with—they’re left disconnected from the story. Even if they don’t know what to call head-hopping, they’ll know something is off and that they have a difficult time connecting emotionally with the characters.
