N4L Entertainment Network Character Designs

It’s fine to switch POV as long as there is a clear scene break in between.

Some books just use white space whereas others have a little design like this:

Some stories actually use both, the white space being a “soft scene break” and the design being the “hard scene break”. The soft scene break would be for small transitions like a minor time skip with the same setting and characters (”a few hours later, they still sat around the table”). The hard scene break would be for POV switches or full scene shifts. Most authors don’t distinguish between the two and just choose one as a universal scene break, but if you use both then the hard break (design) is for a POV switch. 

About that second part of what you say though (I might just be reading too much into this, but the info is good to know anyway) I interpret what you say to mean: “the pov switch isn’t that noticeable because I’m using 3rd limited”.

 A limited third person POV switch should not be “passive” because good 3rd limited imitates 1st person with closeness. Good 3rd limited still has strong character voice and directly shows character perspective; it’s not a distant narration choice that should leave sections all sounding the same. 3rd limited POV switches should actually be more jarring because there’s no “I” that can leave the reader guessing as to who the narrator is.

In 3rd person limited narration, a character in the scene is the one speaking to the audience and the narration only reports their voice, feelings, perspective, etc. The sound of each narrator should be unique. It’s like 1st person, but uses “he/she/they” rather than “I”. 3rd person doesn’t automatically mean distant– that’s 3rd omniscient where the narrator is a separate being from the story (but still has their own voice and spin on things).

Good luck with your work!
