Last night I started to wonder if one of my POV characters' scenes might be best written in first person rather than third person limited.

Today I made a copy of the first scene and started converting it, to see. It's *so much better*. I need to verify that the improvement is from the pov switch and not just from the edit pass, but this is exciting.
